The two defining features of the Einsteinian gravity are that it is self interactive as well as it links universally to all particles including zero mass particles. In the process of obtaining the Schwarzshild solution for gravitational…
A classical nonlocal generalization of Einstein's theory of gravitation has recently been developed via the introduction of a scalar causal "constitutive" kernel that must ultimately be determined from observational data. It turns out that…
In this brief note we present a somewhat trivial result. Namely, we show that perturbative off-shell $f(R)$-theory is equivalent to Einstein gravity, as well as to the Brans-Dicke theory and the Einstein scalar field model. We also discuss…
