Gauge Theories of Gravity |
In General
> s.a. gauge theory; gravity / higher-order
theories; linearized gravity; supersymmetric field theories.
* Idea: The variables
are gauge fields in flat spacetime, a tetrad (translational potential)
and a connection (rotational potential).
* In terms of symmetry
breaking: The n-dimensional general relativity symmetry
group GL(n, \(\mathbb R\)) is broken to the Lorentz group.
