High Energy Physics - Theory 2013-12-02 v1 General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology

Abstract

General relativity can be unambiguously formulated with Lorentz, de Sitter and anti-de Sitter tangent groups, which determine the fermionic representations. We show that besides of the Lorentz group only anti-de Sitter tangent group is consistent with all physical requirements.
