While locally the theory remains the same, the new formulation allows for topologies that would have been excluded in the standard formulation of gravity. In this formulation it is possible to couple arbitrary torsion to gauge fields without breaking the gauge invariance. %R 10.1088/0264-9381/27/6/065014 %U http://arxiv.org/abs/0907.5583 %U https://doi.org/10.1088/0264-9381/27/6/065014 %P 065014-16pp
