Einstein field equations within local fractional calculus

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the local fractional Christoffel index symbols of the first and second kind. The divergence of a local fractional contravariant vector and the curl of local fractional covariant vector are defined. The fractional intrinsic derivative is given. The local fractional Riemann-Christoffel and Ricci tensors are obtained. Finally, the Einstein tensor and Einstein field are generalized by involving the fractional derivatives. Illustrative examples are presented
