| contents | For over two decades, the gravity sector of the Standard-Model Extension (SME) has served as a phenomenological framework for testing spacetime symmetry breaking in the presence of gravity. During this time, various theoretical features have been examined in greater detail and some refinements have been made. In particular, differences between spontaneous and explicit breaking of diffeomorphisms, local translations, and local Lorentz transformations in Riemann-Cartan geometry, as well as their corresponding consistency issues with geometric and mathematical identities, have been probed more deeply. This has led to a modified version of the SME being developed that is suitable for investigating explicit breaking in gravity theories, which can be used as well to search for new geometries that go beyond Riemann-Cartan. A selective overview of some of these features is presented here. |
