How to calculate relative velocity in curved spacetime?
Is there a nice geometric way to calculate relative velocity in curved space time? I'm looking from something similar to how the separation vector $n$ between $2$ neighboring geodesics obey:
$$ \...

Are there any good references on the "gravitational" curvature of spacetime of a moving mass being distorted due to special relativity?
In this Wikipedia paragraph suggesting an explanation for the phenomenon of inertia, it claims:
Another physicist, Vern Smalley, has derived the Lorentz transformation for mass by assuming that the ...
