Complex Relativity: Gravity and Electromagnetic Fields

Abstract

We present new aspects of the electromagnetic field by introducting the natural potentials. These natural potentials are suitable for constructing the first order distortions of the metric tensor of Complex Relativity - the theory combining the General Relativity with the electromagnetic equations. A transition from antisymmetric tensors to the symmetric ones helps to define the natural potentials; their form fits a system of the Dirac matrices and this representation leads to distortion of the metric tensor. Our considerations have originated from the recent progresses in the asymmetric continuum theories. One version of such theories assumes an existence of the antisymmetric strain and stress fields; these fields originate due to some kind of internal friction in a continuum medium which have elastic bonds related to rotations of the particles.
