Dynamical torsion and torsion potential
Hong-jun Xie, Takeshi Shirafuji
We introduce a generalized tetrad which plays the role of a potential for torsion and makes torsion dynamic. Starting from the Einstein-Cartan action with torsion, we get two field…

General considerations of matter coupling with the self-dual connection
M. Tsuda, T. Shirafuji, H. -j. Xie
It has been shown for low-spin fields that the use of only the self-dual part of the connection as basic variable does not lead to extra conditions or inconsistencies. We study whe…

Ashtekar Variables and Matter Coupling
M. Tsuda, T. Shirafuji, H. -J. Xie
It has been shown for low-spin fields that the use of only the self-dual part of the connection as basic variable does not lead to spurious equations or inconsistencies. We slightl…
