Weak field limit in vierbein-Einstein-Palatini formalism and Fierz-Pauli Equation


Abstract in English

We consider the weak field limit of gravity in the vierbein-Einstein-Palatini formalism, find the action and the equations for perturbations around an arbitrary background, and compare them with the usual metric perturbation equations. We also write the Fierz-Pauli equations for massive gravitons on an arbitrary curved background in this formalism.
