Abstract The translation Chern-Simons type three-form coframe∧ torsion on a Riemann-
Cartan spacetime is related (by differentiation) to the Nieh-Yan fourform. Following Chandia …

Abstract In Riemann-Cartan spacetimes with torsion only its axial covector piece A couples
to massive Dirac fields. Using renormalization group arguments, we show that in addition to …

We generalize the Lagrangian of N= 1 supergravity (SUGRA) by using an arbitrary
parameter ξ, which corresponds to the inverse of Barbero's parameter β. This generalized …

By combining the tetrads of unholonomic frames of spacetime with the Dirac matrices to a
one-form γ, we can reformulate not only the Dirac equation, but also the Einstein equations …

Abstract The Dirac equation in Riemann-Cartan spacetimeswith torsion is reconsidered. As
is well-known, only theaxial covector torsion A, a oneform, couples to massiveDirac fields …

We consider a classical Dirac field in flat Minkowski spacetime. We perform a Gordon
decomposition of its canonical energy-momentum and spin currents, respectively. Thereby …

The Dirac equation in Riemann–Cartan spacetimes with torsion is reconsidered. As is well-
known, only the axial covector torsion A, a one-form, couples to massive Dirac fields. Using …

Canonical transformations to complex variables in the teleparallelism equivalent (GR∥) of
general relativity are generated by the translational boundary term id C TT. In this Yang …

Similarly as in the Ashtekar approach, the translational Chern‐Simons term is, as a
generating function, instrumental for a chiral reformulation of simple supergravity. After …

In this paper, we consider supersymmetric quantum cosmology, where a matrix
representation for the gravitino covector spinor is used. The full Lorentz constraint and its …
