Abstract

We impose in the nonsymmetric gravitational theory, by means of Lagrange multiplier fields in the action, a set of covariant constraints on the antisymmetric tensor field. The canonical Hamiltonian constraints in the weak field approximation for the antisymmetric sector yield a Hamiltonian energy bounded from below. An analysis of the Cauchy evolution, in terms of an expansion of the antisymmetric sector about a symmetric Einstein background, shows that arbitrarily small antisymmetric Cauchy data can lead to smooth evolution.
