Gauging the complex Poincaré group

Калибровка комплексной группы Пуанкаре

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

Summary

We investigate the gauge theory of the complex Poincaré group and find that it leads to a theory of gravity which is a natural generalization of general relativity.

Riassunto

Si esamina la teoria di gauge del gruppo di Poincaré complesso e si trova che porta ad una teoria della gravità che è una generalizzazione naturale della relatività generale.

Резюме

Мы исследуем калибровочную теорию комплексной группы Пуанкаре. Получено, что этот подход приводит к теории гравнтации, которая лвляется естественным обобщением общей теории относительности.
