General Relativity by Kawaguchi geometry

Abstract

We construct a parameterisation invariant Lagrange theory of fields up to second order by using multivector bundles and Kawaguchi geometry. In this setup, the spacetime is an dynamical object which is a submanifold of the greater manifold, and the actual spacetime is the solution of Euler-Lagrange equations. Such theory is a reasonable mathematical foundation to describe an extended theory of Einstein’s general relativity, and is capable of being a stage for unification with other physical fields.
