A Geometrical Interpretation of Parity Violation in Gravity with Torsion
In a space-time with torsion, the action for the gravitational field can be extended with a parity-violating piece. We show how to obtain such a piece from geometry itself, by suitably modifying the affine connection so as to include a pseudo-tensorial part. A consistent method is thus suggested for incorporating parity-violation in the Lagrangians of all matter fields with spin in a space-time...
متن کاملParity violation in four and higher dimensional spacetime with torsion
The possibility of parity violation in a gravitational theory with torsion is extensively explored in four and higher dimensions. In the former case, we have listed our conclusions on when and whether parity ceases to be conserved, with both two-and three-index antisymmetry of the torsion field. In the latter, the bulk spacetime is assumed to have torsion, and the survival of parity-violating t...
متن کامل0507253 VPI - IPPAP - 05 - 02 Quantum Gravity , Torsion , Parity Violation and all that
We discuss the issue of parity violation in quantum gravity. In particular, we study the coupling of fermionic degrees of freedom in the presence of torsion and the physical meaning of the Immirzi parameter from the viewpoint of effective field theory. We derive the low-energy effective lagrangian which turns out to involve two parameters, one measuring the non-minimal coupling of fermions in t...
متن کاملNoncommutative field approach in gravity, Lorentz violation and torsion generation
We develop the noncommutative fields approach for the linearized Einstein gravity. As a result an additive Lorentz-breaking torsion term, proportional to the noncommutativity parameter, is shown to be generated in the Lagrangian. The same term is shown to be generated by the Lorentz-breaking coupling of the gravity field to a spinor field. Its presence implies in nontrivial modification of the ...
متن کاملDecays with R-parity Violation
We derive the upper bounds on certain products of R-parityand leptonflavor-violating couplings from B → Xsli lj − decays. These modes of Bmeson decays can constrain the product combinations of the couplings with one or more heavy generation indices which are comparable with or stronger than the present bounds. From the studies of the invariant dilepton mass spectrum and the forward backward asy...
