Local conserved currents in unified field theory

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

Summary

In this paper we develop the existing unified field theory of gravitation and electromagnetism based on the connection between electric charge and homotopically invariant structures in the matter field. We find an infinite class of conserved currents which are local functions of the metric and matter field.

Riassunto

Si è trovata una classe infinita di correnti conservate, funzioni locali della metrica e del campo materiale. Questo risultato sviluppa ulteriormente la teoria di campo unificato per l’interazione gravitazionale e elettromagnetica basata sulla connessione fra carica elettrica e strutture omotopicamente invarianti nel campo materiale.
