On solutions of the Einstein-Cartan-Dirac theory
Description
The author considers the relation between the general theory of relativity and the Einstein-Cartan theory in the case that matter is described by a Dirac field. Thereby the condition is found that an (arbitrary) solution of general relativity with a Dirac field is also a solution of the Einstein-Cartan-Dirac theory and vice versa. Exploiting this result, new non-ghost solutions of the Einstein-Cartan-Dirac theory are generated from ghost solutions of general relativity. (author)
