The concept of Euclidean time is proposed which is dual to the usual Minkowski time. The De Sitter solution is shown to be dual to the anti-De Sitter solution under the dual transformation in which Euclidean time and Minkowski time are…
A quantum Schwarzschild spacetime and a quantum Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime with cosmological constant $\Lambda$ are constructed within the framework of a noncommutative Riemannian geometry developed in an earlier publication. The…
We prove a continuation condition in the context of 3+1 dimensional vacuum Einstein gravity in Constant Mean extrinsic Curvature (CMC) gauge. More precisely, we obtain quantitative criteria under which the physical spacetime can be extended…
We present and analyze new exact gyraton solutions of algebraic type II on generalized Melvin universe of type D which admit non-vanishing cosmological constant $\Lambda$. We show that it generalizes both, gyraton solutions on Melvin and on…
Listing has recently extended results of Kozameh, Newman and Tod for four-dimensional spacetimes and presented a set of necessary and sufficient conditions for a metric to be locally conformally equivalent to an Einstein metric in all…
We explicitly prove that a class of finite quantum gravitational theories (in odd as well as in even dimension) is actually a range of anomaly-free conformally invariant theories in the spontaneously broken phase of the conformal Weyl…
In this work we propose a new procedure for to extract global information of a space-time. We considered a space-time immersed in a higher dimensional space and we formulate the equations of Einstein through of the Frobenius conditions to…
Weyl's conformal theory of gravity is an extension of Einstein's theory of general relativity which associates metrics with 1-forms . In the case of locally integrable (closed non-exact) 1-forms the spacetime manifolds are no more simply…
We prove a local in time existence and uniqueness theorem of classical solutions of the coupled Einstein--Euler system, and therefore establish the well posedness of this system. We use the condition that the energy density might vanish or…
We present and analyze new exact gyraton solutions of algebraic type II on a background which is static, cylindrically symmetric Melvin universe of type D. For a vanishing electromagnetic field it reduces to previously studied gyratons on…
We investigate a class of horizonless solutions in Einstein-Weyl gravity, corresponding to the so-called attractive naked singularities of the (-2,2) type. In contrast to General Relativity, where naked singularities are generically…
A perfect-fluid space-time of dimension n>3 with 1) irrotational velocity vector field, 2) null divergence of the Weyl tensor, is a generalised Robertson-Walker space-time with Einstein fiber. Condition 1) is verified whenever pressure and…
We study Weyl fermions in a linear class of topologically trivial G\"odel-type geometries in Einstein's general relativity. We solve the Weyl equation and evaluate in detail the energy eigenvalues and the corresponding wave functions.
We perform a quantum probing of colliding plane-wave space-times. In particular, we consider the Khan-Penrose and the Ferrari-Ib\'a\~nez solutions, which admit a strong and a weak singularity after the two waves collide. While we find that,…
A general formula is calculated for the connection of a central metric w.r.t.\ a noncommutative spacetime of Lie-algebraic type. This is done by using the framework of linear connections on central bi-modules. The general formula is further…
It is shown that there are no vacuum space-times (with or without cosmological constant) for which the Weyl-tensor is purely gravito-magnetic with respect to a congruence of freely falling observers.
We consider the problem of finding all space-time metrics for which all plane-wave Penrose limits are diagonalisable plane waves. This requirement leads to a conformally invariant differential condition on the Weyl spinor which we analyse…
We consider the stability of spatially homogeneous plane-wave spacetimes. We carry out a full analysis for plane-wave spacetimes in (4+1) dimensions, and find there are two cases to consider; what we call non-exceptional and exceptional. In…
We investigate the existence and the global causal structure of plane symmetric spacetimes with weak regularity when the matter consists of an irrotational perfect fluid with pressure equal to its mass-energy density. Our theory encompasses…
We present a topological classification of vacuum space-time. Assuming the 3-dimensional space allows a global chart, we show that the static vacuum space-time of Einstein's theory can be classified by the knot topology…
