S. Manoff, Auto-parallel equation as Euler-Lagrange's equation over spaces with affine connections and metrics, GEN RELAT G, 32(8), 2000, pp. 1559-1582
The auto-parallel equation over spaces with affine connections and metrics
[((L) over bar(n,g))-spaces] is considered as a result of the application o
f the method of Lagrangians with covariant derivatives (MLCD) on a given La
grangian density.
