A recent paper proposes a static ellipsoidal space-time metric that reduces to Schwarzschild. After examining the corrected line element using Maple's Differential geometry package, we find that the Einstein tendor and Ricci scalar are…
Scalar tensor theories can be expressed in different frames, such as the commonly-used Einstein and Jordan frames, and it is generally accepted that cosmological observables are the same in these frames. We revisit this by making a detailed…
f(Q) gravity is the extension of symmetric teleparallel general relativity (STGR), in which both curvature and torsion vanish, and gravity is attributed to nonmetricity. This work performs theoretical analyses of static and spherically…

The teleparallel gravity theory, treated physically as a gauge theory of translations, naturally represents a particular case of the most general gauge-theoretic model based on the general affine group of spacetime. On the other hand,…

We investigate possible quantum gravity (QG) effects on the gravitational deflection of light. Two forms of deformation of the Schwarzschild spacetime are proposed. The first ansatz is a given Finslerian line element, it could be regarded…
An important operation in geometry processing is finding the correspondences between pairs of shapes. The Gromov-Hausdorff distance, a measure of dissimilarity between metric spaces, has been found to be highly useful for nonrigid shape…
We present a complete analysis of the light rays within the linearized, weak-field approximation of a Schwarzschild-like metric describing the gravitational field of an isolated, spherically symmetric body. We prove in this context the…
The specific astrophysical data collected during the last decade causes the need for the modification of the expression for the Einstein-Hilbert action, and several attempts sufficing this need are known. The modification suggested in this…
It is known that a relative translational motion between the deflector and the observer affects gravitational lensing. In this paper, a lens equation is obtained to describe such effects on actual lensing observables. Results can be easily…
General relativity postulates that the gravity field is defined on a Riemannian manifold. The field equations are $R^\mu_\nu = 0$ i.e. Ricci's curvature tensor vanishes. The field equations have to be augmented by natural physical…

Motivated by the quasi-local mass problem in general relativity, we study the rigidity of isometric immersions with the same mean curvature into a warped product space. As a corollary of our main result, two star-shaped hypersurfaces in a…
