Can I read SL(2, C) invariance and the gravitational field on EtoBox?
SL(2, C) invariance and the gravitational field by Moshe Carmeli is a Physics and Astronomy article available to read on EtoBox.
What is SL(2, C) invariance and the gravitational field about?
The gravitational field equations of general relativity theory are cast into a Yang-Mills type of theory by use of the group X(2, C). The spin coefficients take the role of the Yang-Mills-like potentials, whereas the Riemann tensor takes the role of the fields. Comparison of this formalism with that of Utiyama and Kibble who related invariance under the Lorentz and the Poincare groups to the existence of the gravitational field, is discussed.
Who reads SL(2, C) invariance and the gravitational field?
It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Physics and Astronomy.
