Motivated by studies on gravitational lenses, we present an exact solution of the field equations of general relativity, which is static and spherically symmetric, has no mass but has a non-vanishing spacelike components of the…
We propose a new generalisation of general relativity which incorporates a variation in both the speed of light in vacuum (c) and the gravitational constant (G) and which is both covariant and Lorentz invariant. We solve the generalised…
We reformulate the standard local equations of general relativity for asymptotically flat spacetimes in terms of two non-local quantities, the holonomy $H$ around certain closed null loops on characteristic surfaces and the light cone cut…
The Einstein theories of space-time and gravity as well the stander cosmology are reconstructed thoroughly in this paper based on flat reference frame. The rational parts of the Einstein theories are reserved while the irrational parts…
It is well-known that the Einstein-Rosen solutions to the 3+1 dimensional vacuum Einstein's equations are in one to one correspondence with solutions of 2+1 dimensional general relativity coupled to axi-symmetric, zero rest mass scalar…
We introduce a proposal to modify Einstein's equations by embedding them in a larger symmetric hyperbolic system. The additional dynamical variables of the modified system are essentially first integrals of the original constraints. The…
The Classical Newtonian problem of describing the free motions of N gravitating bodies which form an isolated system in free space has been considered. It is well known from the Poincares Dictum that the problem is not exactly solvable.…
We consider static cosmological solutions along with their stability properties in the framework of a recently proposed theory of massive gravity. We show that the modifcation introduced in the cosmological equations leads to several new…
Building upon the methods used recently, we establish the inexistence of self-gravitating solitonic solutions for both static and strictly stationary asymptotically flat spacetimes in generalised axion electrodynamics. This is an…
The validity of Sundman-type asymptotic estimates for collision solutions is established for a wide class of dynamical systems with singular forces, including the classical $N$--body problems with Newtonian, quasi--homogeneous and…
For N impenetrable particles in one dimension where only the nearest and next-to-nearest neighbours interact, we obtain the complete spectrum both on a line and on a circle. Further, we establish a mapping between these N-body problems and…
Recent data on supernovae favor high values of the cosmological constant. Spacetimes with a cosmological constant have non-relativistic kinematics quite different from Galilean kinematics. De Sitter spacetimes, vacuum solutions of…
We study a classical model for the atom that considers the movement of $n$ charged particles of charge $-1$ (electrons) interacting with a fixed nucleus of charge $\mu >0$. We show that two global branches of spatial relative equilibria…
This work considers the {\em gravitational} $N$-body problem and introduces global time-renormalization {\em functions} that allow the efficient numerical integration with fixed time-steps. First, a lower bound of the radius of convergence…
We study time-dependent compactification of extra dimensions. We assume that the spacetime is spatially homogeneous, and solve the vacuum Einstein equations without cosmological constant in more than three dimensions. We consider globally…
Contrary to recent claims in the literature, Newtonian N-body simulations of collisionless Dark Matter in a LambdaCDM background are compatible with general relativity and are not invalidated by general relativistic effects at the linear…
An explicit one-parameter Lie point symmetry of the four-dimensional vacuum Einstein equations with two commuting hypersurface-orthogonal Killing vector fields is presented. The parameter takes values over all of the real line and the…
An alternative approach to Einstein's theory of General Relativity (GR) is reviewed, which is motivated by a range of serious theoretical issues inflicting the theory, such as the cosmological constant problem, presence of non-Machian…
The assumption that a solution to the Einstein equations is static (or stationary) very strongly constrains the asymptotic behaviour of the metric. It is shown that one need only impose very weak differentiability and decay conditions {\it…
We present a method for constructing stationary, asymptotically flat, rotating solutions of Einstein's field equations. One of the spun-up solutions has quasilocal mass but no global mass. It has an ergosphere but no event horizon. The…
