Abstract

Faddeev formulation of general relativity (GR) is considered where the metric is composed of ten vector fields or a ten-dimensional tetrad. Upon partial use of the field equations, this theory results in the usual GR. Earlier we have proposed some minisuperspace model for the Faddeev formulation where the tetrad fields are piecewise constant on the polytopes like 4-simplices or, say, cuboids into which [Formula: see text] can be decomposed. Now we study some representation of this (discrete) theory, an analogue of the Cartan–Weyl connection-type form of the Hilbert–Einstein action in the usual continuum GR.
