Abstract

We outline a new geometric method of constructing exact solutions of gravitational field equations parametrized by generic off-diagonal metrics, anholonomic frames and possessing, in general, nontrivial torsion and nonmetricity. The formalism of nonlinear connections is elaborated for (pseudo) Riemannian and Einstein-Cartan-Weyl spaces.
