Hello.
If I find a solution of the geodesic equation and I change the parametrization, the new function does not
satisfy this equation for a general re-parametrization. But the world line is the same.
Can you confirm it: does it come from the fact that we usually choose [itex]\nabla_VV=0[/itex] instead of
[itex]\nabla_VV=fV[/itex]for the geodesic equation?
