Abstract: (arXiv)
We present hydrodynamic equations with relativistic pressure and velocity in the presence of weak gravity, in a cosmological context. Previously we consistently derived special relativistic hydrodynamic equations with weak gravity in Minkowski background. With the relativistic pressure and velocity one cannot derive the cosmological counterpart by a simple transformation from equations in the Minkowski background. Here we present a proper derivation. We point out the potential importance of relativistic pressure and velocity in gravitational lensing.
