Quantum equivalence principle
Description
Geometrical structure of physical objects in general relativity and gauge theories is discussed in order to formulate the relation of internal symmetry quantum numbers to geometry of space-time manifold. Some arguments are given for the use of the Borel-Hirzebruch description of characteristic classes for vector bundles in the aspect of equivalence principle concerned with the quantum origin of gravitational field
