New Action Principle for Classical Particle Trajectories in Spaces with Torsion

Abstract

To comply with recent developments of path integrals in spaces with curvature and torsion we find the correct variational principle for the classical trajectories. Although the action depends only on the length, the trajectories are autoparallels rather than geodesics due to the effects of a new torsion force.
