We present a novel theory of gravity by considering an extension of symmetric teleparallel gravity. This is done by introducing, in the framework of the metric-affine formalism, a new class of theories where the nonmetricity $Q$ is…
Modified gravity theories, MGTs, with modified (nonlinear) dispersion relations, MDRs, encode via indicator functionals possible modifications and effects of quantum gravity; in string/brane, noncommutative and/or nonassociative gravity…
We investigate quantisations of line bundles $\mathcal{L}$ on derived Lagrangians $X$ over $0$-shifted symplectic derived Artin $N$-stacks $Y$. In our derived setting, a deformation quantisation consists of a curved $A_{\infty}$ deformation…

Given a Finsler space (M,F) on a manifold M, the averaging method associates to Finslerian geometric objects affine geometric objects} living on $M$. In particular, a Riemannian metric is associated to the fundamental tensor $g$ and an…
A general form for the equation of motion for higher-curvature gravity is obtained. The interesting feature of the analysis is that it can handle Lagrangians which contain non-minimal kinetic scalar couplings. Certain subtle features, which…
We study the general deformed conformal-Poincare (Galilean) symmetries consistent with relativistic (nonrelativistic) canonical noncommutative spaces. In either case we obtain deformed generators, containing arbitrary free parameters, which…
Finsler metrics are direct generalizations of Riemannian metrics such that the quadratic Riemannian indicatrices in the tangent spaces of a manifold are replaced by more general convex bodies as unit spheres. A linear connection on the base…

We apply the method of moving anholonomic frames, with associated nonlinear connections, in (pseudo) Riemannian spaces and examine the conditions when various types of locally anisotropic (la) structures (Lagrange, Finsler like and more…
We state and prove a simple Theorem that allows one to generate invariant quantities in Metric-Affine Geometry, under a given transformation of the affine connection. We start by a general functional of the metric and the connection and…
In this paper, we study weakly orthogonally invariant Finsler metrics and derive explicit expressions for their Berwald and Landsberg curvatures. We then obtain the system of partial differential equations characterizing generalized Finsler…
