First of all, we let

g

ab

=

η

ab

+

γ

ab

.

gab=ηab+γab.

Then use the linear Einstein's Field Equation,

R

ab

=0  ⇒  



2

γ

ab

=0.

Rab=0  ⇒  ◻2γab=0.

For a plane wave propagating along the

x

3

x3

-axis,we know that the only components of

γ

μν

γμν

that are different from zero are

γ

11

=−

γ

22

,

γ

12

=

γ

21

γ11=−γ22,γ12=γ21

So,

γ

jj

=

γ

11

+

γ

22

+

γ

33

=0

γjj=γ11+γ22+γ33=0

Consider the ADM Energy

E=

Some calculation about

h

h

h

hjj=ηjj+γjj=ηjj=const

∂1hij=∂2hij=0

Finally, we have

E=0

E=0

letgab=ηab+γab.gab=ηab+γab.Then use the linear Einstein's Field Equation,Rab=0 ⇒ 2γab=0.Rab=0 ⇒ 2γab=0.
