Torsion axial vector and Yvon-Takabayashi angle: zitterbewegung, chirality and all that

Abstract We consider propagating torsion as a completion of gravitation in order to describe the dynamics of curved-twisted space-times filled with Dirac spinorial fields; we discuss interesting relationships of the torsion axial vector and the curvature tensor with the Yvon-Takabayashi angle and th...
