  In this paper we propose a new gauge term in addition to the conventional gauge to acquire complete solution for the linear approximated gravitational equation. The calculation to make general form for the linear gravitational equation uses the well-known N?ether’s theorem saying that gauge symmetry is equal to conservation law. The unsolved coefficients in the equation require another condition which is leading to new gauge term. This proposed new gauge is a tensor product by a scalar quantity with a metric tensor having the trace value of 2. The scalar component in the 5th row and column of Kaluza-Klein’s metric tensor can be found as 2 diagonal components in our proposed 4&#215;4 metric tensor. We also show that only a constant scalar gauge can be allowed in the curved space-time although arbitrary gauge can exist in the linear space-time.

There still exists a scalar component, k, in the position of the 5<sup>th</sup> row and 5<sup>th</sup> column.

However, there is no gauge term with scalar component like “k” in the Kaluza-Klein metric tensor.

Conclusion</title><p>We have revealed that there is a gauge including a scalar quantity even in the four dimensions. We have found that the previously known vector gauge alone can not satisfy the law of conservation of symmetry in the linear approximated gravitational equation, and an additional gauge is needed. So, by introducing a scalar gauge, we could solve this problem completely. In Kaluza-Klein theory, the scalar component compared with the scalar gauge proposed in this paper exists only in the fifth row and column of the five-dimentional metric tensor. But in this paper, we have shown that scalar gauges (trace value of η ′ μ ν as 2) exist at two points on the diagonal of a metric tensor. It is expected that physical interpretation with respect to the scalar gauge will be studied in the future. It is also found that, although the gauge in the linear approximated space-time has a degree of freedom, the gauge is constant in curved space-time. That is to say, it does not have a local gauge, but a global gauge in curved space-time. It looks natural that space-time is more symmetrical when it is more linear and vice versa. We may conclude that the limit of symmety depends on the limit of curvatue of the space-time and the symmtry term becomes a constant from a variable as space-time becomes curved.</p></sec><sec id="s7"><title>Conflicts of Interest</title><p>The authors declare no conflicts of interest regarding the publication of this paper.</p></sec><sec id="s8"><title>Cite this paper</title><p>Yun, Y.H. and Jang, K.
