In general relativity, an inertial frame can only be established in a small region of spacetime, and locally inertial frames are mathematically represented by a tetrad field in gravity. The tetrad field is not unique due to the freedom to…
Faddeev gravity using a $d$-dimensional tetrad (normally $d = 10$) is classically equivalent to general relativity (GR). The discrete Faddeev gravity on the piecewise flat spacetime normally assumes slowly varying metric and tetrad from…
