Gauge symmetries of the teleparallel theory of gravity

Abstract: We study gauge properties of the general teleparallel theory of gravity, defined in the framework of Poincaré gauge theory. It is found that the general theory is characterized by two kinds of gauge symmetries: a specific gauge symmetry that acts on Lagrange multipliers, and the standard Poincaré gauge symmetry. The canonical generators of these symmetries are explicitly constructed and investigated.
