Since its decovery during the late 90's, the dimming of distant SN Ia apparent luminosity has been mostly ascribed to the influence of a mysterious dark energy component. Formulated in a Friedmannian cosmological modelling framework based…
The mathematical theory of isometric embedding is applied to study the notion of quasilocal mass in general relativity. In particular, I shall report some recent progress of quasilocal mass with reference to a cosmological spacetime, such…
We estimate the dominating frequencies contributing to the Casimir energy in a cavity of metamaterials mimicking de Sitter space, by solving the eigenvalue problem of Maxwell equations. It turns out the dominating frequencies are the…
The evolution of a generally covariant theory is under-determined. One hundred years ago such dynamics had never before been considered; its ramifications were perplexing, its future important role for all the fundamental interactions under…
We introduce a phase space with spinorial momenta, corresponding to fermionic derivatives, for a 2d supersymmetric (1, 1) sigma model. We show that there is a generalisation of the covariant De Donder-Weyl Hamiltonian formulation on this…
We continue the study of covariant power-counting renormalizable gravity constrained by scalar Lagrange multiplier. Lorentz symmetry breaking is investigated in such a theory in comparison with the one in ghost condensation model. Covariant…
For an analogon of the free Wess-Zumino model on Ricci flat spacetimes, the relation between a conserved `supercurrent' and the point-separated improved energy momentum tensor is investigated and a similar relation as on Minkowski space is…
We provide a full quantum description of the optomechanical system formed by a Fabry-Perot cavity with a movable micro-mechanical mirror whose center-of-mass and internal elastic modes are coupled to the driven cavity mode by both radiation…
The cosmological constant problem and the possibility of obtaining a see saw cosmological effect, where the effective vacuum energy is highly suppressed by the existence of a large scale is investigated in the context of scale-invariant,…
McVittie's spacetime is a spherically symmetric solution to Einstein's equation with an energy-momentum tensor of a perfect fluid. It describes the external field of a single quasi-isolated object with vanishing electric charge and angular…
We provide a space-time covariant Hamiltonian treatment for a finite-range gravitational theory. The Kuchar approach is used to demonstrate the bimetric picture of space-time in its most transparent form. This Hamiltonian formalism is…
This article provides a unified treatment of an extensive category of non-linear classical field models whereby the universe is represented (perhaps as a brane in a higher dimensional background) in terms of a structure of a mathematically…
Quasi-local energies for constantly accelerating observers in Ba\~nados, Teitelboim, and Zanelli (BTZ), Schwarzschild and Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetimes are derived. The energies are expressed in terms of acceleration, cosmological…
Static spherically symmetric anisotropic source has been studied for the Einstein-Maxwell field equations assuming the erstwhile cosmological constant $ \Lambda $ to be a space-variable scalar, viz., $ \Lambda = \Lambda(r) $. Two cases have…
Motivated by the stability of the electroweak Higgs vacuum we consider the possibility that the Standard Model might work up to large scales between about $10^{10}$ GeV and close to the Planck scale. A plausible scenario is an emergent…
A manifestly covariant expression for the current matrix elements of three quark bound systems is derived in the framework of the Point Form Relativistic Hamiltonian Dynamics. The relativistic impulse approximation is assumed in the model.…
The idea that a background of invisible material pervades the whole universe is as old as the history of natural philosophy. Modern particle physics and cosmology support that idea and identify in the cosmic vacuum the ultimate source of…
We use the idea of the symmetry between the spacetime coordinates x^\mu and the energy-momentum p^\mu in quantum theory to construct a momentum space quantum gravity geometry with a metric s_{\mu\nu} and a curvature P^\lambda_{\mu\nu\rho}.…
It is well known that the KdV equation has an infinite set of conserved quantities. The first three are often considered to represent mass, momentum and energy. Here we try to answer the question of how this comes about, and also how these…
The hyperbolic center of mass of a finite measure on the unit ball with respect to a radially increasing weight is shown to exist, be unique, and depend continuously on the measure. Prior results of this type are extended by characterizing…
