Weyl-invariant extension of the Metric-Affine Gravity — •Zahra Altaha Motahar — Oldenburg University, Oldenburg, Germany

Metric-affine geometry provides a non-trivial extension of the general relativity where the metric and connection are treated as the two independent fundamental quantities in constructing the space-time (with non-vanishing torsion and non-metricity). We study the generic form of action in this formalism, and then construct the Weyl-invariant version of this theory. It is shown that in Weitzenbock space, the obtained Weyl-invariant action can cover the conformally invariant teleparallel action. Finally the related field equations are obtained in the general case.
