In \cite{2} it was shown that Einstein's special theory of relativity and Maxwell's field theory have mathematically equivalent dual versions. The dual versions arise from an identity relating observer time to proper time as a contact…

An explicitly covariant formulation is presented of a modified DGP scenario proposed recently [1], to avoid the instability of the self-accelerating branch. It is based on the introduction of a bulk scalar field with appropriate non-minimal…
Lorentz transformation equations provide us a set of relations between the spacetime coordinates as observed from two different inertial frames. In case, one of the frames is moving with a uniform rectilinear acceleration we have Rindler's…
The 3+1 Hamiltonian Einstein equations, reduced by imposing two commuting spacelike Killing vector fields, may be written as the equations of the $SL(2,R)$ principal chiral model with certain `source' terms. Using this formulation, we give…

I present a covariant approach to developing 1+3 formalism without an introduction of any basis or coordinates. In the formalism, a spacetime which has a timelike congruence is assumed. Then, tensors are split into temporal and spatial…

Generalizations of the three main equations of quantum physics, namely, the Schr\"odinger, Klein-Gordon, and Dirac equations, are proposed. Nonlinear terms, characterized by exponents depending on an index $q$, are considered in such a way…
We discuss the equations of motion of test particles for a version of Kaluza-Klein theory where the cylinder condition is not imposed. The metric tensor of the five-dimensional manifold is allowed to depend on the fifth coordinate. This is…

To describe the ``slow'' motions of n interacting mass points, we give the most general 4-d non-instantaneous, non-particle symmetric Galilei-invariant variational principle. It involves two-body invariants constructed from particle…
We present a new derivation of the conservative form of the general relativistic Boltzmann equation and specialize it to the 3+1 metric. The resulting transport equation is intended for use in simulations involving numerical relativity,…
We propose a modification of special relativity in which a physical energy, which may be the Planck energy, joins the speed of light as an invariant, in spite of a complete relativity of inertial frames and agreement with Einstein's theory…
We investigate a class of cosmological solutions of Einstein's field equations in higher dimensions with a cosmological constant and an ideal fluid matter distribution as a source. We discuss the dynamical evolution of the universe subject…

The paper is devoted to the motion of a body in a fluid under the influence of gravity and drag. Depending on the regime considered, the drag force can exhibit a linear, quadratic or even more general dependence on the velocity of the body…
