Conformal Gravity (CG) is a Weyl--invariant metric theory whose action is free from divergences for generic asymptotically anti-de Sitter spaces. For Neumann boundary conditions, it reduces to renormalized Einstein--AdS gravity at tree…

There are explored off-diagonal deformations of "prime" metrics in Einstein gravity (for instance, for wormhole configurations) into "target" exact solutions in f(R,T)-modified and massive/ bi-metric gravity theories. The new classes of…
We have constructed gravity solutions by breaking the Lorentzian symmetry to its subgroup, which means there is Galilean symmetry but without the rotational and boost invariance. This solution shows anisotropic behavior along both the…
