On Hypermomentum in General Relativity II. The Geometry of Spacetime

  • Friedrich W. Hehl , G. David Kerlick and Paul von der Heyde

In Part I** of this series we have introduced the new notion of hypermomentum Δijk as a dynamical quantity characterizing classical matter fields. In Part II, as a preparation for a general relativistic field theory, we look for a geometry of spacetime which will allow for the accomodation of hypermomentum into general relativity. A general linearly connected spacetime with a metric (L4, g) is shown to be the appropriate geometrical framework
