Local symmetries in -like models: lessons from 2D
arXiv:2302.04924 · doi:10.1142/S0219887823501839
Abstract
The comprehension of the intricate structure associated to the local symmetries encoded in the tetrad field, as well as its physical meaning, is perhaps the most important unsolved problem within gravity. This is inextricably connected to the number, nature and potential impact that the additional degree/s of freedom might have within these --and other closely related--models of gravity in which the local Lorentz invariance is broken at some level. Here we review and further explain some recent results which make use of the more placid scenery provided by 2D-torsional models of gravity, where the local symmetries adapted to a given geometry can be fully characterized.
