On the topological character of metric-affine Lovelock Lagrangians in critical dimensions
Work
Year: 2019
Type: article
Abstract: In this paper we prove that the k-th order metric-affine Lovelock Lagrangian is not a total derivative in the critical dimension n=2k in the presence of non-trivial non-metricity. We use a bottom-up a... more
