摘要
Viewing Einstein's theory as the gauge theory of the Lorentz group, we construct the most general vacuum connections which have vanishing curvature tensor and show that the vacuum space-time can be classified by the knot topology pi(3)(S-3) similar or equal to pi(3)(S-2) of pi(3)(SO(3, 1)). With this we obtain the gauge-independent vacuum decomposition of Einstein's theory to the vacuum and gauge covariant physical parts. We discuss the physical implications of our result in quantum gravity.
