Gravitation: in search of the missing torsion
R. Aldrovandi, J. G. Pereira
A linear Lorentz connection has always two fundamental derived characteristics: curvature and torsion. The latter is assumed to vanish in general relativity. Three gravitational mo…
Lorentz transformations in de Sitter relativity
R. Aldrovandi, J. P. Beltran Almeida, C. S. O. Mayor +1
The properties of Lorentz transformations in de Sitter relativity are studied. It is shown that, in addition to leaving invariant the velocity of light, they also leave invariant t…
The Nonlinear Essence of Gravitational Waves
R. Aldrovandi, J. G. Pereira, K. H. Vu
A critical review of gravitational wave theory is made. It is pointed out that the usual linear approach to the gravitational wave theory is neither conceptually consistent nor mat…
Gravitation: Global Formulation and Quantum Effects
R. Aldrovandi, J. G. Pereira, K. H. Vu
A nonintegrable phase-factor global approach to gravitation is developed by using the similarity of teleparallel gravity with electromagnetism. The phase shifts of both the COW and…
