Description

Using the path-ordered products of the relevant affine connection we examine the effect of the parallel transport of vectors and spinors (three-dimensional case only) around closed paths (circles) in the field corresponding to the cylindrically symmetric cosmic string. We compute the solution for three-dimensional gravity also
