Building upon previous works characterizing GRW space-times using concircular and torse-forming vectors, this paper investigates a Lorentzian manifold equipped with a concircularly semi-symmetric metric connection. We demonstrate that such…

A simple, though rarely considered, thought experiment on relativistic rotation is described in which internal inconsistencies in the theory of relativity seem to arise. These apparent inconsistencies are resolved by appropriate insight…

We give an introduction to the theory and to some applications of eigenvectors of tensors (in other words, invariant one-dimensional subspaces of homogeneous polynomial maps), including a review of some concepts that are useful for their…

A simple gravitational model with torsion is studied, and it is suggested that it could explain the dark matter and dark energy in the universe. It can be reinterpreted as a model using the Einstein gravitational equations where spacetime…

The possibilities of curvature of space-time in the metric of quantum states are investigated. The curvature of the metric corresponding to a wave function of Hydrogen atom is determined. Also, Einstein tensor is described for a given…

Motivated by a special consideration in quantum measurement, we present a new improved energy-momentum tensor. The new tensor differs from the traditional canonical and symmetric ones, and can be derived as Nother current from a Lagrangian…

The main object of the proposed theory is not a pseudometric, but a symmetric affine connection on the Minkowski space. The coefficients of this connection have one upper and two lower indices. These coefficients are symmetric with respect…

It is shown that the dynamical evolution of linear perturbations on a static space-time is governed by a constrained wave equation for the extrinsic curvature tensor. The spatial part of the wave operator is manifestly elliptic and…

In this brief article an internal symmetry of a generic metric compatible space-time connection, metric and generalized volume element is introduced. The symmetry arises naturally by considering a space-time connection containing a generic…

Recently, it was shown that the quantum effects of the matter, could be used to determine the conformal degree of freedom of the space-time metric. So both gravity and quantum are geometrical features. Gravity determines the causal…

The specification of energy for gravitating systems has been an unsettled issue since Einstein proposed his pseudotensor. It is now understood that energy-momentum is \emph{quasi-local} (associated with a closed 2-surface). Here we consider…

Inhomogeneous Nelson's diffusion in flat spacetime with a tensor of diffusion can be described as a homogeneous one in a Riemannian manifold with this tensor of diffusion as a metric tensor. The influence of matter to the energy density of…

In this paper it is reconciled how the metric in Minkowskian space-time gets transformed from one coordinates system to another after successive Lorentz transformations. And likewise this idea is generalized to achieve metric transformation…

We consider the slowly rotating relativistic stars with a uniform angular velocity in the scalar-tensor gravity, and examine the rotational effect around such compact objects. For this purpose, we derive a 2nd order differential equation…
