Les Interactions Fondamentales et la Structure de l'Espace-temps
  In the light of intriguing results of C.C.Barros, we investigate in this thesis the possibilities of geometrical interpretation of all the fundamental interactions in order to unify them. More exactly we try to supply a unified geometrical description for gravitation and electromagnetism.   The analysis of Huei's standard approach of Linear Gravity, in which the Einstein equations can be written in the same form of the Maxwell ones, revealed the existence of some imperfections. In fact, the relation between the scalar potential and the electric-type field is not valid except in the harmonic gauge, the Lorentz-type force is obtained with a time independence restriction and an undesired factor 4 appears in the magnetic-type part. A subtle gauge conditions allows us to eliminate these imperfections and to revisit the Linear Gravity in a way to get a strong similarity with electromagnetism. In the linear case, we showed that Maxwell's equations could be derived from an electromagnetic version of the Einstein ones, and that the higher order terms are negligible in the current domain of application of electromagnetism.
