Seminar “Quantum Field Theory”

Date and Time: Wednesday, 17 November 2021, at 11:00 AM

Venue: Blokhintsev lecture hall (4th floor), Bogoliubov Laboratory of Theoretical Physics

Seminar topic: “Complete General Relativity”

Speaker: I. B. Pestov (BLTP JINR)

Abstract:

Complete General Relativity is the Einstein theory that includes, as a basis, the Einstein metric field with the Principle of General Relativity on the one hand and the general gauge field with the Principle of General Gauge Relativity on the other hand. The general gauge field is a nontrivial sourceless gauge field with physical interest as the natural and only source of the gravitational field. Its singlet state becomes apparent in the form of the familiar electromagnetic field. The main equations of Complete General Relativity are established and their physical content is discussed from different points of view.
