Torsion represents the most natural extension of General Relativity and it attracted interest over the years in view of its link with fundamental properties of particle motion. The bulk of the approaches concerning the torsion dynamics…

A new concept of geometrization of electromagnetic field is proposed. Instead of the concept of extended field and its point sources, the interacting Maxwellian and Dirac electron--positron fields are considered as a microscopic unified…

We shall consider the problem of Dark Matter in torsion gravity with Dirac matter fields; we will consider the fact that if WIMPs in a bath are allowed to form condensates then torsional effects may be relevant even at galactic scales: we…

The quadratic form of the Dirac equation in a Riemann spacetime yields a gravitational gyromagnetic ratio \kappa_S = 2 for the interaction of a Dirac spinor with curvature. A gravitational gyromagnetic ratio \kappa_S = 1 is also found for…

In the most general geometric background, we study Dirac spinor fields with particular emphasis given to the explicit form of their gauge momentum and the way in which this can be inverted so to give the expression of the corresponding…

We present a review of some recent models of gravitation theory with propagating torsion based on the use of a torsion-dilaton field and propose one more model of this type which promises to be more realistic. A proper universal…

The local Lorentz group is introduced in flat space-time, where the resulting Dirac and Yang-Mills equations are found, and then generalized to curved space-time: if matter is neglected, the Lorentz connection is identified with the…

We initiate quantitative studies of complexity in (1+1)-dimensional conformal field theories with a view that they provide the simplest setting to find a gravity dual to complexity. Our work pursues a geometric understanding of complexity…

We explore the Dirac equation in external electromagnetic and torsion fields. Motivated by the previous study of quantum field theory in an external torsion field, we include a nonminimal interaction of the spinor field with torsion. As a…

We discuss the motion of spin in inertial and gravitational fields. The coupling of spin with rotation and the gravitomagnetic field has already been extensively studied; therefore, we focus here on the inertial and gravitational spin-orbit…

The role of torsion in f(R) gravity is considered in the framework of metric-affine formalism. We discuss the field equations in empty space and in presence of perfect fluid matter taking into account the analogy with the Palatini…

It is well known that only the axial piece of the torsion couples minimally to fermions in a Riemann-Cartan geometry, while the other ones decouple. In this paper, we consider the Dirac field minimally coupled to a dynamical background with…

We consider a set of physical degrees of freedom coupled to a finite-dimensional Hilbert space, which may be taken as modeling a fuzzy space or as the lowest Landau level of a Landau-Hall problem. These may be viewed as matter fields on a…

We recall some of the obstacles which arise when one tries to reconcile the general theory of relativity with quantum theory. We consider the possibility that gravitation theories which include torsion, and not only curvature, provide…

We make it precise what it means to have a connection with torsion as solution of the Einstein equations. While locally the theory remains the same, the new formulation allows for topologies that would have been excluded in the standard…
