Teleparallel gravity with non-vanishing curvature
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Guided by the rules of Einstein’s geometrization philosophy, a pure geometric field theory is constructed. The Lagrangian used to derive the field equations of the theory is a curvature scalar of a version of absolute parallelism (AP) geometry known in the literature as the parameterized absolute parallelism (PAP) geometry. The linear connection of this version has simultaneously non-vanishing curvature and torsion. Analysis of the theory obtained shows clearly that it is a pure gravity theory. The theory is a teleparallel one, since the building blocks of both PAP and AP geometries are the same. It is shown analytically that the theory has a trivial version in the AP-geometry, if gravity is attributed to curvature not to torsion. In the case of spherical symmetry, solutions of the field equations give rise to the Schwarzschild exterior field. The theory depends on two principles: covariance and unification. The weak equivalence principle is satisfied under a certain condition. The work preserves Einstein’s main idea that gravity is just space–time curvature, although it is not a metric theory. It is shown that the theory reduces to vacuum general relativity upon taking the parameter of the geometry b = 0.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
