Description
C-theory is a framework which provides a smooth transition
between metric and palatini variations of f(R) actions. In
the paper 1305.0695 we proved an equivalence between a
specific C-theory and a particular non-local theory of
gravity. We will present this result and speculate a bit on
the implictions it has for locality in the context of
alternative action principles in general.
