An essay on the Relativistic Theory of the Non-Symmetric Field

Imposing the transposition invariance to metric-affine 
theories of gravity and to supergravity

Relating dark energy to the torsion of spacetime

 

We show that imposing the transposition invariance to metric-affine theories of gravity and to supergravity leads to formally simpler and stronger field equations. Using the simplest metric-affine theory of gravity with torsion, we also show that the requirement of transposition invariance allows to physically reinterpret the ΛCDM cosmological model by relating dark energy to the torsion of spacetime.
