Gravitational Field on the Lorentz Tangent Bundle: Generalized Paths and Field Equations

Abstract

We investigate the dynamics of gravitational field and particles in a generalized framework of a Lorentz tangent bundle. By variating an appropriate action for each case, we obtain generalized forms of paths and generalized field equations for a Sasaki type metric. We show that Stokes theorem is modified with respect to general relativity due to local anisotropy and the presence of a nonlinear connection which induces an adapted basis in our space.
