  By generalizing the Hodge dual operator to the case of soldered bundles, and
working in the context of the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity, an
analysis of the duality symmetry in gravitation is performed. Although the
basic conclusion is that, at least in the general case, gravitation is not dual
symmetric, there is a particular theory in which this symmetry shows up. It is
a self dual (or anti-self dual) teleparallel gravity in which, due to the fact
that it does not contribute to the interaction of fermions with gravitation,
the purely tensor part of torsion is assumed to vanish. The ensuing fermionic
gravitational interaction is found to be chiral. Since duality is intimately
related to renormalizability, this theory may eventually be more amenable to
renormalization than teleparallel gravity or general relativity.
