Abstract: We review, in the light of recent developments, the existing relations between gravity and topological BF theories at the classical level. We include the Plebanski action in both self-dual and non-chiral formulations, their generalizations, and the MacDowell–Mansouri action.
Keywords: Plebanski action, MacDowell–Mansouri action, BF gravity, TQFT, modified theories of gravity.
