We develop the gauge approach based on the Lorentz group to the gravity with torsion. With a Lagrangian quadratic in curvature we show that the Einstein-Hilbert action can be induced from a simple gauge model due to quantum corrections of…
We review recent progress in a fully dynamical Lagrangian description of the supergravity-superbrane interaction. It suggests that the interacting superfield action, when it exists, is gauge equivalent to the component action of dynamical…
The use of proper ``time'' to describe classical ``spacetimes'' which contain both Euclidean and Lorentzian regions permits the introduction of smooth (generalized) orthonormal frames. This remarkable fact permits one to describe both a…
