The gravitational field equations of general relativity theory are cast into a Yang-Mills type of theory by use of the group X(2, C). The spin coefficients take the role of the Yang-Mills-like potentials, whereas the Riemann tensor takes the role of the fields. Comparison of this formalism with that

The constitutive map is introduced to replace the familiar relation ij : EE and B = &. Its objective is a rigorous functional separation between field-and constitutive equations. The possibility to implement this functional separation is shown to depend critically on the introduction of electric cha

An explicitly SL(2, C) gauge-invariant Lagrangian density, equivalent to Hilbert's Lagrangian density, is written, and a Palatini-type variational principle is applied to it. The resulting field equations are Einstein's equations written in dyad notation and a set of equations defining the spin coef
