The parametric manifold picture of space-time

Abstract

Parametric manifolds are reparametrization-invariant geometric structures describing space-time and internal degrees of freedom in a unified framework. Using the theory of parametric spinors, a decomposition of the space-time in General Relativity is developed with respect to the 3-space of trajectories of a time-like or space-like vector field. The parametric 3+1 decomposition surpasses the ADM formalism in generality since it is possible even in space-times which do not admit a space-like foliation. (author) 33 refs.
