We consider the approach to gravity in which four-dimensional curved spacetime is represented by a surface in a flat Minkowski space of higher dimension. After a short overview of the ideas and results of such an approach we concentrate on…

We first define a complex angle between two oriented spacelike planes in 4-dimensional Minkowski space, and then study the constant angle surfaces in that space, i.e. the oriented spacelike surfaces whose tangent planes form a constant…

In this paper, we intend to bring together the hyperbolic spinors, which are useful frameworks from mathematics to physics, and both spacelike and timelike framed curves in Minkowski 3-space $\mathbb{R}_1^3$, which are new type attractive…

In this work, we consider spacelike surfaces in Minkowski space $\hbox{\bf E}%_{1}^{3}$ that satisfy a linear Weingarten condition of type $\kappa_{1}=m\kappa_{2}+n$, where $m$ and $n$ are constant and $\kappa_{1}$ and $\kappa_{2}$ denote…

The problem of time reparameterization is addressed at both the classical and quantum levels in a Bianchi-I universe in which the matter source is a massive Dirac spinor field. We take the scale factors of the metric as the intrinsic time…

We establish a general formula for the enclosed volume of constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces in Euclidean three space with translational periods forming a lattice. The formula relates the volume to the surface area, a…

We prove the following result on the timelike spherical Hilbert geometry of simplices: Let $\Delta_2$ be a simplex on the 2-sphere and $\tilde{\Delta}_2$ the antipodal simplex. We show that the timelike spherical Hilbert geometry associated…
