The Value of the Cosmological Constant in a Unified Field Theory with Enlarged Transformation Group
arXiv:1204.3671
Abstract
The geometrical structure of a real four-dimensional space-time has been extended via the Conservation group with basic field variable being the orthonormal tetrad. Field equations were obtained from a variational principle which is invariant under the conservation group. Recently, symmetric solutions of the field equations have been developed. In this note, the free-field solution is investigated in terms of the value of the scalar curvature. The resulting asymptotic value is approximately the negative of the currently accepted value of , i.e. . This may add further support to the conclusion that the theory developed by Pandres unifies the fields.
Withdrawn due to the fact that the cosmological model used was not the correct model for inferring a value of the cosmological constant
