Spacetime Defects: Torsion Loops
Spacetimes with everywhere vanishing curvature tensor, but with tor-sion different from zero only on world sheets that represent closed loops in ordinary space are presented, also defects along open curves with end points at infinity are studied. The case of defects along timelike loops is also considered and the geodesics in these spaces are briefly discussed.
متن کاملWormholes in spacetime with torsion
Analytical wormhole solutions in U4 theory are presented. It is also discussed whether the introduction of extremely short range repulsive forces, related to the spin angular momentum of matter, could be the “carrier” of exoticity that threads the wormhole throat.

متن کاملIn Search of the Spacetime Torsion
Whether torsion plays or not a role in the description of the gravitational interaction is a problem that can only be solved by experiment. This is, however, a difficult task: since there are different possible interpretations for torsion, there is no a model–independent way to look for it. In these notes, two different possibilities will be reviewed, their consistency analyzed, and the corresp...
متن کاملVacuumless torsion defects.
Vacuumless defects in space-times with torsion may be obtained from vacuum defects in spacetimes without torsion.This idea is applied to planar domain walls and global monopoles.In the case of domain walls exponentially decaying Higgs type potentials are obtained.In the case of global monopoles torsion string type singularities are obtained like the string singularities in Dirac monopoles.
متن کاملOn non-Riemannian Superconductors and torsion loops
The geometrization of electrodynamics is obtained by performing the complex extension of the covariant derivative operator to include the Cartan torsion vector and applying this derivative to the Ginzburg-Landau equation of superfluids and Superconductors.It is shown that the introduction of torsion makes a shift in the symmetry breaking vacuum.Torsion loops are computed from geometrical phases...
