Based on a unified quantum field theory of spinors assumed to describe all matter fields and their interactions we construct the space time structure of general relativity according to a general connection within the corresponding spinor…

The hierarchy problem can be addressed by extending the four-dimensional space-time to include an extra compact spatial dimension with non-trivial "warped" metric, as first suggested by Randall and Sundrum. If the Randall-Sundrum framework…

The teleparallel formulation of gravity theories reveals close structural analogies to electrodynamics, which are more hidden in their usual formulation in terms of the curvature of spacetime. We show how every locally Lorentz invariant…

This paper presents a derivation of a first-order reduction and 3+1 decomposition of the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity (TEGR) in the pure-tetrad formulation (no spin connection). Our analysis demonstrates that in vacuum…

In order to study tensor fields of type (0,2) on manifolds and fibrations we introduce the notion of s-spaces. With the help of these objects we generalized the concept of natural tensor without making use of the theory of natural operators…

We compute all 2-covariant tensors naturally constructed from a semiriemannian metric which are divergence-free and have weight greater than -2. As a consequence, it follows a characterization of the Einstein tensor as the only, up to a…

We construct the tensor hierarchies of generic, bosonic, 5- and 6-dimensional field theories. The construction of the tensor hierarchy starts with the introduction of two tensors: the embedding tensor which tells us which vector is used for…
