The Canonical Structure of Bigravity

Astronomy Reports Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

This work is motivated by the intention to make the theory of bigravity more comprehensible. Bigravity is a modification of the General Relativity (GR), maybe even the most natural one because it is based on the equivalence principle. The Hamiltonian formalism in tetrad variables demonstrates the structure of bigravity most transparently.
