| contents | A recent paper proposes a static ellipsoidal space-time metric that reduces to Schwarzschild. After examining the corrected line element using Maple's Differential geometry package, we find that the Einstein tendor and Ricci scalar are non-zero, and the metric yields non-zero pressures when interpreted as an anisotropic fluid. Thus, it does not represent a vacuum solution. We also checked a cited ellipsoidal metric from the literature and found it likewise fails to satisfy the vacuum Einstein equations. |
