Title |
Einstein-Weyl Gravity from a Topological SL(5,R) Gauge Invariant Action | |||||

Abstract |
A topological field theory of gravity in four-dimension is proposed which is finite after quantization. Since such `minimal' BF type models for the high energy limit are physically not quite realistic, a tiny symmetry breaking is needed to recover standard Einsteinian gravity for the macroscopic metrical background. |
