Non-Riemannian generalizations of the Born-Infeld model and the meaning of the cosmological term

Theory of gravitation based on a non-Riemannian geometry with dynamical torsion field is geometrically analyzed. To this end, the simplest Lagrangian density is introduced as a measure (reminiscent of a sigma model) and the dynamical equations are derived. Our goal is to rewrite this generalized aff...
