Diffeomorphism-invariant noncommutative gravity with twisted local Lorentz invariance
We propose a new theory of gravitation on noncommutative space-time which is invariant under the general coordinate transformations, while the local Lorentz invariance is realized as twisted gauge symmetry. Our theory is remarkably simpler compared to the existing formulations of noncommutative gravity.
متن کاملScalar Field for Breaking Lorentz and Diffeomorphism Invariance *
A scalar field can be inserted in Maxwell and/or Einstein theory to effect symmetry breaking. Consequences of such a modification are discussed. Possible dynamics for the scalar field are presented.
متن کاملExperimental Tests of Local Lorentz Invariance
Lorentz invariance, fundamental to Relativity and the Standard Model, has been thoroughly investigated both theoretically and experimentally in the past 15 years. This investigation, motivated in large by attempts to unify gravity with the Standard Model through quantum gravity, has led to strict constraints on the nature and size of a violation. A historical perspective of Lorentz’s work, a br...
متن کاملHidden Consequence of Active Local Lorentz Invariance
In this paper we investigate a hidden consequence of hypothesis that Lagrangians and field equations must be invariant under active local Lorentz transformations. We show that this hypothesis implies in an equivalence between spacetime structures with several curvature and torsion possibilities.
متن کاملLorentz Invariance on Trial
experiment was surprising and difficult to explain in terms of then prevalent physics concepts. It required a fundamental change in the notions of space and time and was finally explained, almost 20 years later, by Albert Einstein’s special theory of relativity. (See the May 1987 special issue of PHYSICS TODAY devoted to the centennial of the experiment.) Special relativity postulates that all ...
