General teleparallel gravity from Finsler geometry
View through CrossRef
Abstract
Riemannian geometry, as a basis for general relativity, can be obtained from the more general Finsler geometry in terms of the Cartan connection and Chern connection, as discussed frequently in the literature. However, there are other gravity theories that can be made to be equivalent to general relativity but are based on non-Riemannian geometry. Famous examples are the Teleparallel and Symmetric Teleparallel gravity theories. In this paper, we show how to obtain the geometry for Teleparallel gravity from Finsler geometry in terms of a ‘Teleparallel type’ connection.
