This paper is based on a formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations developed by P. Constantin and the first author (\texttt{arxiv:math.PR/0511067}, to appear), where the velocity field of a viscous incompressible fluid is written as the…
Like the Lovelock Lagrangian which is a specific homogeneous polynomial in Riemann curvature, for an alternative derivation of the gravitational equation of motion, it is possible to define a specific homogeneous polynomial analogue of the…
Analogue models of gravity have played a pivotal role in the past years by providing a test bench for many open issues in quantum field theory in curved spacetime such as the robustness of Hawking radiation and cosmological particle…
Variational formulations for viscous flows which lead to the Navier-Stokes equation are examined. Since viscosity leads to dissipation and, therefore, to the irreversible transfer of mechanical energy to heat, thermal degrees of freedom…
A lagrangian for relativistic fluid systems with matters inside is developed using gauge principle. In the model, the gauge boson represents the fluid field in a form $A_\mu \equiv \epsilon_\mu \phi$, where $\epsilon_\mu$ contains the fluid…
A new Lorentz gauge gravity model with R^2-type Lagrangian is proposed. In the absence of classical torsion the model admits a topological phase with an arbitrary metric. We analyze the equations of motion in constant curvature space-time…
We propose a new interpretation of the equivalence principle underlying Einstein's general relativity: a free-falling frame with gravitational force eliminated locally in a small spacetime region shows the existence of a boundary level,…
The work shows that the evolution of the field of the free Klein-Gordon equation (KGE), in the hydrodynamic representation, can be represented by the motion of a mass density subject to the Bohm-type quantum potential, whose equation can be…
This paper attempts to throw some light on what is the correct choice of sources for Einstein's field equations for the gravitational metric, and on the definition of the Cauchy-Noether energy-momentum tensor of relativistic field theories,…
One of the striking features of general relativity is that the Einstein equation is implied by the Clausius relation imposed on a small patch of locally constructed causal horizon. Extension of this thermodynamic derivation of the field…
We provide arguments indicating that the semiclassical Einstein equations follow from quantum relative entropy and its proportionality to an area variation. Using modular theory, we establish that the relative entropy between the vacuum…
At mesoscopic scales, the quantum corrected field equations of gravity should arise from extremizing, $\Omega$, the number of microscopic configurations of pre-geometric variables consistent with a given geometry. This $\Omega$, in turn, is…
We construct a new class of perturbative asymptotically Anti-de Sitter pp-wave spacetimes by performing a long-wavelength expansion of Kaigorodov metrics in arbitrary spacetime dimensions. Holographically, these spacetimes are described by…
Starting from the action function, we have derived a theoretical background that leads to the quantization of gravity and the deduction of a correlation between the gravitational and the inertial masses, which depends on the kinetic…
The Einstein-Hilbert action of general theory of relativity (GR) is the integral of the scalar curvature $R$. It is a theory that is drawn from the Equivalence principle, and has predictions that come out as a consequence of the principle,…
We study the vacuum-subtracted von Neumann entropy of a segment on a null plane. We argue that for interacting quantum field theories in more than two dimensions, this entropy has a simple expression in terms of the expectation value of the…
Recently the most general completion of Brans-Dicke theory was appeared with energy exchanged between the scalar field and ordinary matter, given that the equation of motion for the scalar field keeps the simple wave form of Brans-Dicke.…
In four dimensional gravity theory, the Barbero-Immirzi parameter has a topological origin, and can be identified as the coefficient multiplying the Nieh-Yan topological density in the gravity Lagrangian, as proposed by Date et al.[1].…
