This essay was written as an extended version of a talk given at a conference in Strasbourg on "Riemann, Einstein and geometry", organized by Athanase Papadopoulos in September 2014. Its aim is to present Roger Penrose's approach to…
Lectures given at the Trieste Summer School, 1992. These notes are an update of my review article "Classical and Quantum W-Gravity", preprint QMW-92-1, published in in "Strings and Symmetries 1991", with some extra material on W-geometry,…
This resource letter provides an introduction to some of the main current topics in experimental tests of general relativity as well as to some of the historical literature. It is intended to serve as a guide to the field for upper-division…
On June 5, 2007 the second author delivered a talk at the Journees de l'Institut Elie Cartan entitled "Finite symmetry groups in complex geometry". This paper begins with an expanded version of that talk which, in the spirit of the…
Thick fully depleted CCDs, while enabling wide spectral response, also present challenges in understanding the systematic errors due to 3D charge transport. This 2014 Workshop on Precision Astronomy with Fully Depleted CCDs covered progress…
Various aspects including the construction and the symmetries of Abelian Chern-Simons vortices are reviewed. Extended version of the Lectures delivered at NIKHEF (Amsterdam), July 2006. Typos corrected, some refernces added.
Here I summarize P5-WG (New/Alternative Physics Working Group) of LCWS2000@FNAL, held on Oct 24-28, 2000. There were 13 talks altogether, 7 talks on collider signals from new particles/interactions and 6 talks on extra dimensional physics.…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to the triviality of the considered coordinate transformations. A consistent treatment, based on the extended physical radial coordinates, is presented in the publications of the author 2000 -…

General local half-BPS solutions in M-theory, which have $SO(2,2)\times SO(4)\times SO(4)$ symmetry and are asymptotic to $AdS_{7}\times S^{4}$, were constructed in exact form by the authors in [arXiv:0806.0605]. In the present paper,…
Exact RG equations are discussed with emphasis on the role of the anomalous dimension $\eta$. For the Polchinski equation this may be introduced as a free parameter reflecting the freedom of such equations up to contributions which vanish…
During the 2016 International Workshop on Astronomy and Relativistic Astrophysics (IWARA), the question was raised as to if conformal gravity could explain the timely result of McGaugh et. al. 2016 which showed a universal nature found in…
The most recent observational and theoretical results in the rapidly expanding field of high-energy gamma-ray astrophysics were discussed at the international conference ``Gamma-2024'' that took place in Milano in September 2024. This…
These lecture notes are an expanded write-up of my short lecture series "Noncommutative Resolutions" given to the MSRI Graduate Student Workshop "Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry" during June 2012. The notes include five chapters, an…
This is a talk, given at Diffraction'2000, Sept. 2 - 7, Centraro, Italy. In this talk, we present the arguments, that a new QCD regime - gluon saturation, has been reached at HERA.
A prescription is given to obtain some exact results for certain external potentials $V\left({\vec r}\right)$ of the time-independent Gross-Pitaevskii and Schr\"odinger equations. The study motivation is the ability to program $V\left({\vec…
