On variational principles of relativistic theories involving torsion

  • 1. North Carolina State Univ., Raleigh (USA). Dept. of Physics

Description

Variational principles that are distinct from the formulation of Hehl et al. which reproduce their field equations in reductions of U4 are considered. The results are at odds with conclusions which appeared in a recent letter by Safko et al. (Auth.)
