Are the neutrinos an aspect of riemannian geometry?

Представляют ли нейтрино аспект римановой геометрии?

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

Space-time with a 1-parameter holonomy group and vanishing scalar curvature is interpreted as describing the neutrinos. An algebraic condition in the curvature tensor is obtained which, for perfect holonomy groups, characterizes the 1-parameter group. Physical interest in recurrent and symmetric spaces is emphasized.

Riassunto

Si interpreta come una descrizione dei neutrini lo spazio-tempo con un gruppo di olonomie ad un parametro e curvatura scalare nulla. Si ottiene una condizione algebrica per il tensore di curvatura che, per gruppi di olonomie perfetti, caratterizza il gruppo ad un parametro. Si mette in evidenza l’interesse fisico per gli spazi ricorrenti e simmetrici.

Реэюме

Рассматривается, что пространство и время в случае 1-параме-трической голономной группы и обрашаюшейся в нуль скалярной кривиэны описывают нейтрино. Получается алгебраическое условие на тенэор кривиэны, которое для идеальных голономных групп характериэует 1-параметрическую группу. Отмечается фиэический интерес к рекуррентным и симметричьым пространствам.
