Quadratic metric-affine gravity: solving for the affine-connection

Abstract We consider the most general 11 parameter parity even quadratic Metric-Affine Theory whose action consists of the usual Einstein–Hilbert plus the 11 quadratic terms in torsion, non-metricity as well as their mixing. By following a certain procedure and using a simple trick we are able to fi...
