I mean aside from his recanting of quantuam theory. Also, aside from his most famous equation (E=mc2; I can't get this computer to express "squared" but that's what I mean), how are his theories put down mathmetically? What are the equations? Any sites would be good.

Check out the good old wiki for an article on General Relativity, which has many good links to go from there. Much of the work in General Relativity is in tensor form, which means you'll have to learn about tensors and what they are. Everybody knows of his famous equation E = mc², but few know of his equally important equation in General Relativity, G = 8πT, where G is the Einstein tensor and T is the stress-energy tensor. It shows the connection between spacetime curvature and gravity.
There have not been any experimental results that substantially refute any of the equations or predictions of both Special and General Relativity, so it still ranks as one of the most dependable models in physics. Even though Einstein had reservations about quantum theory (which he later retracted reluctantly) his relativity theories actually do not contradict quantum theory, except in concept, in that quantum theory doesn't work as a model of deformations of a 4D spacetime manifold. Nobody has yet figured out how to "marry" the two, so that both share a common conceptual framework.

Will Einsteins theory of relativity be disproved? specific, it will get replaced, yet that isn't somewhat comparable to disproved ... this Einstein relativity style of our universe fails to describe an excellent style of issues and is not properly matched with Quantum mechanics. for sure there is extra to be got here across and a sparkling style to be formed. interior the period in-between relativity works for all the excuses that the Ptolemaic gadget labored, it particularly is an rather precise style of our universe from our attitude. maybe as quickly as we see the form of area-time from a better (exterior) view we would have the means to create a extra logical and comprehensible theory to change relativity and Quantum mechanics.

The only ptoblem with Einstein"s theories is they are possible to good, try typing in stuff like Einstein,s math both with the . and without it .ps you can't miss Nash's equilibrium they made that movie for a reason

One is Water over Mass was never proved. I do not think it is possible
