Description
It is shown that there exists a class of nongauge local symmetry in gravity. It is the combination of the known gauge symmetries and deltasub(off shell) transformation. deltasub(off shell) is the transformation which vanishes on shell. deltasub(off shell) invariance imposes some restriction on model Lagrangians besides gauge symmetry, though it does not reduce the physical degrees of freedom.
