Natural and Gauge Natural Formalism for Classical Field Theorie [E-Book] : A Geometric Perspective including Spinors and Gauge Theories / by Lorenzo Fatibene, Mauro Francaviglia.
In this book the authors develop and work out applications to gravity and gauge theories and their interactions with generic matter fields, including spinors in full detail. Spinor fields in particular appear to be the prototypes of truly gauge-natural objects, which are not purely gauge nor purely...
