Quadratic metric-affine gravity
We consider spacetime to be a connected real 4-manifold equipped with a Lorentzian metric and an affine connection. The 10 independent components of the (symmetric) metric tensor and the 64 connection coefficients are the unknowns of our theory. We introduce an action which is quadratic in curvature and study the resulting system of Euler–Lagrange equations. In the first part of the paper we lo...
متن کاملAffine Quantum Gravity
A sketch of the affine quantum gravity program illustrates a different perspective on several difficult issues of principle: metric positivity; quantum anomalies; and nonrenormalizability. Quantum gravity is under study from several viewpoints. Brane world scenarios and loop quantum gravity represent the two most popular approaches [1], yet alternative viewpoints may also deserve consideration....
متن کاملTwo-dimensional metric-affine gravity
There is a number of completely integrable gravity theories in two dimensions. We study the metric-affine approach on a 2-dimensional spacetime and display a new integrable model. Its properties are described and compared with the known results of Poincaré gauge gravity. PACS: 04.50.+h, 04.20.Fy, 04.20.Jb, 04.60.Kz, 02.30.Ik
متن کاملThe Affine Quantum Gravity Program
The central principle of affine quantum gravity is securing and maintaining the strict positivity of the matrix {ĝab(x)} composed of the spatial components of the local metric operator. On spectral grounds, canonical commutation relations are incompatible with this principle, and they must be replaced by noncanonical, affine commutation relations. Due to the partial second-class nature of the q...
متن کاملString and Metric–Affine Gravity
We develop the method of anholonomic frames with associated nonlinear connec-tion (in brief, N–connection) structure and show explicitly how geometries with lo-cal anisotropy (various type of Finsler–Lagrange–Cartan–Hamilton geometry) can bemodeled in the metric–affine spaces. There are formulated the criteria when such gen-eralized Finsler metrics are effectively induced in the...
