... occurring geometric property of relativistic theories of gravitation, the gauge theory of the Poincaré group leads to its presence and the occurrence of cosmological singular- ities can be less generic ... conjugation in Riemannian geometries is also discussed in detail. The Maxwell field strength is written in this language, and many useful identities are given. The curvature spinors of gen...
