Nonsymmetric Gravity Has Unacceptable Global Asymptotics
نویسنده
چکیده
We analyze the radiative aspects of nonsymmetric gravity theory to show that, in contrast to General Relativity, its nonstationary solutions cannot simultaneously exhibit acceptable asymptotic behavior at both future and past null infinity: good behavior at future null infinity is only possible through the use of advanced potentials with concomitant unphysical behavior at past null infinity.

Nonsymmetric Gravity Does Have Acceptable Global Asymptotics
We consider the claim by Damour, Deser and McCarthy [3] that nonsymmetric gravity theory has unacceptable global asymptotics. We explain why this claim is incorrect.
متن کاملComment on the formation of black holes in nonsymmetric gravity
We critically examine the claim made by Burko and Ori that black holes are expected to form in nonsymmetric gravity and find their analysis to be inconclusive. Their conclusion is a result of the approximations they make, and not a consequence of the true dynamics of the theory. The approximation they use fails to capture the crucial equivalence principle violations which enable the full nonsym...
متن کاملEinstein Gravity , Lagrange – Finsler Geometry , and Nonsymmetric Metrics
We formulate an approach to the geometry of Riemann–Cartan spaces provided with nonholonomic distributions defined by generic off-diagonal and nonsymmetric metrics inducing effective nonlinear and affine connections. Such geometries can be modelled by moving nonholonomic frames on (pseudo) Riemannian manifolds and describe various types of nonholonomic Einstein, Eisenhart–Moffat and Finsler–Lag...
متن کاملEinstein Gravity in Almost Kähler Variables and Stability of Gravity with Nonholonomic Distributions and Nonsymmetric Metrics
We argue that the Einstein gravity theory can be reformulated in almost Kähler (nonsymmetric) variables with effective symplectic form and compatible linear connection uniquely defined by a (pseudo) Riemannian metric. A class of nonsymmetric theories of gravitation (NGT) on manifolds enabled with nonholonomic distributions is analyzed. There are considered some conditions when the fundamental g...

In this work we raise the question whether nonsymmetric gravity and string theory are related. We start making the observation, that the gravitational field g µν and the nonsymmetric gauge field A µν arising in the low energy limit in the string theory are exactly the same two basic fields used in four dimensions in nonsymmetric gravity. We argue, that this connection between nonsymmetric gravi...
