Torsion as Alternative to Curvature in the Description of Gravitation
V. C. de Andrade, H. I. Arcos, J. G. Pereira
The general covariance principle, seen as an active version of the principle of equivalence, is used to study the gravitational coupling prescription in the presence of curvature a…
General Relativity as a Genuine Connection Theory
R. Aldrovandi, H. I. Arcos, J. G. Pereira
The Palatini formulation is used to develop a genuine connection theory for general relativity, in which the gravitational field is represented by a Lorentz-valued spin connection.…
Torsion and the Gravitational Interaction
H. I. Arcos, J. G. Pereira
By using a nonholonomous-frame formulation of the general covariance principle, seen as an active version of the strong equivalence principle, an analysis of the gravitational coup…
Torsion and Gravitation: A new view
H. I. Arcos, V. C. de Andrade, J. G. Pereira
According to the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity, curvature and torsion are two equivalent ways of describing the same gravitational field. Despite equivalent, howeve…
