Locally-homogeneous Riemann-Cartan geometries with the largest symmetry group
The symmetry frame formalism is an effective tool for computing the symmetries of a Riemann-Cartan geometry and, in particular, in metric teleparallel geometries. In the case of non-vanishing torsion in a four dimensional Riemann-Cartan geometry, the Minkowski geometry is the only geometry admitting ten affine frame symmetries. Excluding this geometry, the maximal number of affine frame symmetries is seven. A natural question is to ask what four dimensional geometries admit a seven-dimensional group of affine frame symmetries. Such geometries are locally homogeneous and admit the largest isotropy group permitted, and hence are called maximally isotropic. Using the symmetry frame formalism to compute affine frame symmetries along with the additional structure of the torsion tensor, we employ the Cartan-Karlhede algorithm to determine all possible seven-dimensional symmetry groups for Riemann-Cartan geometries.
期刊介绍:
Since 1960, the Journal of Mathematical Physics (JMP) has published some of the best papers from outstanding mathematicians and physicists. JMP was the first journal in the field of mathematical physics and publishes research that connects the application of mathematics to problems in physics, as well as illustrates the development of mathematical methods for such applications and for the formulation of physical theories.
The Journal of Mathematical Physics (JMP) features content in all areas of mathematical physics. Specifically, the articles focus on areas of research that illustrate the application of mathematics to problems in physics, the development of mathematical methods for such applications, and for the formulation of physical theories. The mathematics featured in the articles are written so that theoretical physicists can understand them. JMP also publishes review articles on mathematical subjects relevant to physics as well as special issues that combine manuscripts on a topic of current interest to the mathematical physics community.
JMP welcomes original research of the highest quality in all active areas of mathematical physics, including the following:
Partial Differential Equations
Representation Theory and Algebraic Methods
Many Body and Condensed Matter Physics
Quantum Mechanics - General and Nonrelativistic
Quantum Information and Computation
Relativistic Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Field Theory, Quantum Gravity, and String Theory
General Relativity and Gravitation
Dynamical Systems
Classical Mechanics and Classical Fields
Fluids
Statistical Physics
