The torsion is shown to be vitally important in the explanation of the evolution of the universe in a large class of gravitational theories containing quadratic terms of curvature and torsion. The cosmological solutions with homogeneous and…
A gauge theory of gravity is defined in 6 dimensional non-commutative space-time. The gauge group is the unitary group U(2,2), which contains the homogeneous Lorentz group, SO(4,2), in 6 dimensions as a subgroup. It is shown that, after the…
This study toward quantum gravity (QG) introduces an SU(N) gauge theory with the \Theta vacuum term for gravitational interactions, which leads to a group SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y x SU(3)_C for weak and strong interactions through dynamical…
In this paper noncommutative gravity is constructed as a gauge theory of the noncommutative SO(2,3) group, while the noncommutativity is canonical (constant). The Seiberg-Witten map is used to express noncommutative fields in terms of the…
The idea of gauge theories of gravity predicts that there should exist not only the massless graviton but also massive particles carrying the gravitational force. We study the cosmology in a quadratic gravity with dynamical torsion where…
Quasi-Riemannian theories of gravity have smaller gauge groups acting on the tangent spacetime than the full Lorentz group. Among others, the spatial rotation group can be gauged to obtain spacetime asymmetric gravity with general…
We generalize Einstein's General Relativity (GR) by assuming that all matter (including macro-objects) has quantum effects. An appropriate theory to fulfill this task is Gauge Theory Gravity (GTG) developed by the Cambridge group. GTG is a…
The influence of space-time torsion on gravitational interaction at cosmological and astrophysical scales is discussed within the framework of gauge gravitation theory in Riemann-Cartan space-time. It is shown that the interaction of the…
Poincar\'e gauge theory of gravity offers opportunities to solve some principal problems of general relativity theory and modern cosmology. In the frame of this theory the gravitational interaction can have the repulsion character in the…
We examine the cosmological sector of a gauge theory of gravity based on the SO(4,2) conformal group of Minkowski space. We allow for conventional matter coupled to the spacetime metric as well as matter coupled to the field that gauges…
With the exception of gravitation, the known fundamental interactions of Nature are mediated by gauge fields. A comparison of the candidate groups for a gauge theory possibly describing gravitation favours the Poincar\'e group as the…
The Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble theory of gravity removes the constraint of general relativity that the affine connection be symmetric by regarding its antisymmetric part, the torsion tensor, as a dynamical variable. The minimal coupling…
Noncommutative geometric construction of gravity in the two sheeted spacetime can be viewed as a discretized version of a Kaluza-Klein theory. In this paper, we show that it is possible to incorporate the nonabelian gauge fields in the same…
The complexified gauging of the de Sitter group gives a unified theory for the electroweak and gravitational interactions. The standard spectrum for the electroweak gauge bosons is recovered with the correct mass assignments, following a…

Wigner's little group of a massless particle is ISO(2) which contains rotation and two translations. As well-known, eigenvalues of the rotation are helicity. On the other hand, by S. Weinberg et al., it has been shown that two translations…
We present a model of the gravitational field based on two symmetric tensors. Gravity is affected by the new field, but outside matter the predictions of the model coincide exactly with general relativity, so all classical tests are…
