An Invariant Action for Noncommutative Gravity in Four-Dimensions

Two main problems face the construction of noncommutative actions for gravity with star products: the complex metric and finding an invariant measure. The only gauge groups that could be used with star products are the unitary groups. I propose an invariant gravitational action in D=4 dimensions based on the constrained gauge group U(2,2) broken to $U(1,1)\times U(1,1).$ No metric is used, thus giving a naturally invariant measure. This action is generalized to the noncommutative case by replacing ordinary products with star products. The four dimensional noncommutative action is studied and the deformed action to first order in deformation parameter is computed.
