Polynomial Affine Model of Gravity: After 10 Years

The polynomial affine model of gravity was proposed as an alternative to metric and metric-affine gravitational models. What, in the beginning, was thought to be a source of unpredictability—the presence of many terms in the action—turned out to be a milestone since it contains all possible combinations of the fields compatible with the covariance under diffeomorphisms. Here, we present a review of the advances in the analysis of the model after 10 years of its proposal and sketch the guidelines for our future perspectives.

Abstract

The polynomial affine model of gravity was proposed as an alternative to metric and metric-affine gravitational models. What, in the beginning, was thought to be a source of unpredictability—the presence of many terms in the action—turned out to be a milestone since it contains all possible combinations of the fields compatible with the covariance under diffeomorphisms. Here, we present a review of the advances in the analysis of the model after 10 years of its proposal and sketch the guidelines for our future perspectives.
