Geometrical Heavy Lifting: Yang-Mills, Spin, and Torsion in Dynamical Projective Gravitation
Samuel J. Brensinger, Patrick Vecera
Thomas-Whitehead (TW) gravity is a gauge theory of gravitation based on projective geometry. The theory maintains projective symmetry through the TW connection, an affine connectio…
General structure of ThomasWhitehead gravity
Samuel Brensinger, Kenneth Heitritter, Vincent Rodgers +1
Thomas-Whitehead (TW) gravity is a projectively invariant model of gravity over a d-dimensional manifold that is intimately related to string theory through reparameterization inva…
Dark Energy From Dynamical Projective Connections
Samuel Brensinger, Kenneth Heitritter, Vincent G. J. Rodgers +2
We further develop the gravitational model, Thomas-Whitehead Gravity (TW Gravity), that arises when projective connections become dynamical fields. TW Gravity has its origins in ge…
Dynamical Projective Curvature in Gravitation
Samuel Brensinger, Vincent G. J. Rodgers
By using a projective connection over the space of two-dimensional affine connections, we are able to show that the metric interaction of Polyakov 2D gravity with a coadjoint eleme…
