It is well-known since the works of Utiyama and Kibble that the gravitational force can be obtained by gauging the Poincar\'e group, which puts gravity on the same footing as the Standard Model fields. The resulting theory --…
We study gravity coupled to scalar and fermion fields in the Einstein-Cartan framework. We discuss the most general form of the action that contains terms of mass dimension not bigger than four, leaving out only contributions quadratic in…
We demonstrate that classical and quantum electrodynamics can be completed by gravitational torsion appearing in Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble theory of gravity, providing the missing part of the electron theory. One of the equations of…
Fermions are coupled to the Einstein-Cartan system in the canonical formulation, including the cosmological, the Barbero-Immirzi, and the non-minimal coupling constants. The resulting ten first-class constraints generate gauge…
Background fields of electromagnetic and gravitational type emerge in the low kinetic energy limit of any regular Lagrangian system and, in particular, in the corresponding limit of any spacetime theory in which the free motion of test…
We propose a simple mechanism that may explain the observed particle-antiparticle asymmetry in the Universe. In the Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble theory of gravity, the intrinsic spin of matter generates spacetime torsion. Classical Dirac…
We find the conditions under which scale-invariant Einstein-Cartan gravity with scalar matter fields leads to an approximate conformal invariance of the flat space particle theory up to energies of the order of the Planck mass. In the…
In the framework of the recently proposed electroweak theory on a Planck lattice, we are able to solve approximately the lattice Dyson equation for the fermion self-energy functions, and obtain the ratio between the masses of the $t-$ and…
We briefly review the current status of a new quantum gravity theory called Electro-Magnetic Quantum Gravity. EMQG is manifestly compatible with Cellular Automata (CA) theory, and is based on a new theory of inertia proposed by R. Haisch,…
In scale-invariant theories of gravity the Planck mass $M_P$, which appears due to spontaneous symmetry breaking, can be the only scale at the classical level. It was argued that the second scale can be generated by a quantum…
Combining the quantum scale invariance with the absence of new degrees of freedom above the electroweak scale leads to stability of the latter against perturbative quantum corrections. Nevertheless, the hierarchy between the weak and the…
The problem of nonuniqueness of minimal coupling procedure for Einstein--Cartan (EC) gravity with matter is investigated. It is shown that the predictions of the theory of gravity with fermionic matter can radically change if the freedom of…
The earlier developed algorithm for constructing a self-conjugate Hamiltonian in the \eta-representation for Dirac particles interacting with a general gravitational field is extended to the case of electromagnetic fields. This Hamiltonian…
The gravitational interaction, as described by the Einstein-Cartan theory, is shown to emerge as the by-product of the spontaneous symmetry breaking of a gauge symmetry in a pre-geometric four-dimensional spacetime. Starting from a…
The Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble theory of gravity naturally extends general relativity to account for the intrinsic spin of matter. Spacetime torsion, generated by spin of Dirac fields, induces gravitational repulsion in fermionic matter…
The origin of dark energy remains to be one of the challenges of modern cosmology. We modify Jordan-Brans-Dicke theory using a vector field instead of a scalar field and theory becomes similar to a simple Einstein-aether theory. The time…
The masses of the elementary particles as well as their charges and spins belong to the fundamental physical constants. Presently, no fundamental theory describing them is available, so their values remain mysterious. In this work we offer…
The starting point of quantum mechanics is the relationship between energy and momentum: energy is proportional to the squared momentum! As a result, energy and momentum have not been treated equally. The wave equation required by…
We have recently proposed a new action principle for combining Einstein equations and the Dirac equation for a point mass. We used a length scale $L_{CS}$, dubbed the Compton-Schwarzschild length, to which the Compton wavelength and…
The interactions between the spin of fermionic matter and torsion in the Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble (ECSK) theory of gravity provides a repulsive gravitational potential at the very dense states of fermionic matter, which prevents the…
