Tetrad gravity, electroweak geometry and conformal symmetry
arXiv:1009.2255 · doi:10.1142/S0219887811005403
Abstract
A partly original description of gauge fields and electroweak geometry is proposed. A discussion of the breaking of conformal symmetry and the nature of the dilaton in the proposed setting indicates that such questions cannot be definitely answered in the context of electroweak geometry.
