Abstract
Any Dirac spin structure on a world manifold xis a subbundle of the composite spinor bundle \(S \to \sum _T \to X\), where\(\sum _T \to X\) is a bundle oftetrad gravitational fields. The bundle S admits generalcovariant transformations that enable us to discover theenergy-momentum conservation law in gauge gravitationtheory.
