Ashtekar Variables in Classical General Relativity
The task I was given for this lecture is to present Ashtekar’s connection variables for classical General Relativity in a pedagogical manner. My intention is to describe a possible route towards a reformulation of General Relativity in terms of Ashtekar’s connection variables. I try to give self-contained and hopefully painless derivations of the crucial steps, without entering too much into th...
متن کاملgr-qc 9312032 ASHTEKAR VARIABLES IN CLASSICAL GENERAL RELATIVITY*
This paper contains a pedagogical introduction into Ashtekar's reformulation of General Relativity in terms of connection-variables. A large appendix serves as glossary for some di erential geometric concepts.
متن کاملGeneralized boundary conditions for general relativity for the asymptotically flat case in terms of Ashtekar’s variables
There is a gap that has been left open since the formulation of general relativity in terms of Ashtekar’s new variables namely the treatment of asymptotically flat field configurations that are general enough to be able to define the generators of the Lorentz subgroup of the asymptotical Poincaré group. While such a formulation already exists for the old geometrodynamical variables, up to now o...
متن کاملNew Tetrads for General Relativity
We find a one parameter family of Lagrangians, describing Einstein's general relativ-ity in terms of tetrads which are not c-numbers but obey exotic commutation relations. The noncommutativity completely drops out at the level of the metric theory, where the Christoffel symbols and the components of the Riemann tensor are ordinary numbers and have the usual form in terms of the space–time metri...
متن کاملGeneral-relativistic Visualization General Relativity
I n our previous article about special-relativistic visualization,1 we described what the travelers from our highly developed civilization observed when they passed the Earth; now, they set out for the Cygnus X-1 binary system, which is roughly 6,000 light years away. The Cygnus X-1 system consists of a super giant variable star (HDE 226868) and a very compact object—presumably a black hole—wit...
