Poincar\'e Gauge Theories are a class of Metric-Affine Gravity theories with a metric-compatible (i.e. Lorentz) connection and with an action quadratic in curvature and torsion. We perform an explicit one-loop calculation starting with a single term of each type and show that not only are all other terms generated, but also many others. In our particular model all terms containing torsion are redundant and can be eliminated by field redefinitions, but there remains a new term quadratic in curvature, making the model non-renormalizable. We discuss the likely behavior of more general theories of this type.

  1. Extrinsic geometry and Hamiltonian analysis of symmetric teleparallel gravity

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Symmetric teleparallel gravity has the same number of degrees of freedom as general relativity, confirmed via its Hamiltonian formulation after deriving generalized extrinsic geometry relations.
