Wherever one talks of dark matter, one does so where there is an observable matter and an associated unsolved dynamical issue to be settled. We promote this observation to the status of an axiom and conjecture that there is a dark companion…

During the last century many observations have been made to peep into the dark matter in the universe and many astonishing behaviors of Galaxy clusters have been found which do not fit to any theories formulated before. However, Optical…

Ordinary baryonic particles (such as protons and neutrons) account for only one-sixth of the total matter in the Universe. The remainder is a mysterious "dark matter" component, which does not interact via electromagnetism and thus neither…

It is a well known fact that, in the absence of Dark Matter, the observation of the rotation curves of galaxies cannot be explained in terms of Newtonian gravity. Rotation curves become flat in the outer regions, in contrast to what is…

In this work the dynamics of self-gravitating systems composed by dark and baryonic matter is analyzed. Searching for a description of this dynamics, a system of collisionless Boltzmann equations for the two constituents and the Poisson…

For nearly a century, more mass has been measured in galaxies than is contained in the luminous stars and gas. Through continual advances in observations and theory, it has become clear that the dark matter in galaxies is not comprised of…

A solution to the dark matter problem is set forth in the framework of reductive semiclassical gravity, i.e., semiclassical gravity involving quantum state reduction. In that theory, the Einstein equation includes the energy-momentum tensor…

We propose a geometrical approach to the investigation of Hamiltonian systems on (Pseudo) Riemannian manifolds. A new geometrical criterion of instability and chaos is proposed. This approach is more generic than well known reduction to the…

It is shown that the theory of dark matter can be derived from the first principles. Particles representing a new form of matter gravitate but do not interact electromagnetically, strongly and weakly with the known elementary particles.…

Many cosmological observations call for the existence of dark matter. The most direct evidence for dark matter is inferred from the measured flatness of galactic rotation curves. The latter is based on Newtonian gravity. Alternative…

The cosmological origin of both dark and baryonic matter can be explained through a unified mechanism called hylogenesis where baryon and antibaryon number are divided between the visible sector and a GeV-scale hidden sector, while the…

I review the problem of dark energy focusing on the cosmological constant as the candidate and discuss its implications for the nature of gravity. Part 1 briefly overviews the currently popular `concordance cosmology' and summarises the…

It is shown, that a free motion of microparticles (elementary particles) in the gravitational field is multivariant (stochastic). This multivariance is conditioned by multivariant physical space-time geometry. The physical geometry is…

We consider a theory of gravity with a hidden extra-dimension and metric-dependent torsion. A set of physically motivated constraints are imposed on the geometry so that the torsion stays confined to the extra-dimension and the…

The Bazanski approach, for deriving the geodesic equations in Riemannian geometry, is generalized in the absolute parallelism geometry. As a consequence of this generalization three path equations are obtained. A striking feature in the…

Whenever and wherever one talks of dark matter, one does so when and where there is a luminous matter and a dynamical issue to be settled. We promote this observation to the status of an axiom and assume that there is a dark companion to…

Recently, the static spherically symmetric solution of the gravitational field equations have been found in theories describing massive graviton with spontaneous breaking of the Lorentz invariance. These solutions, which show off two…

The exact solution to the Einstein equations that represents a static axially symmetric source deformed by an internal quadrupole is considered. By using the Poincare section method we numerically study the geodesic motion of test…

Some results of author's work in a non-geometrical approach to quantum gravity are reviewed here, among them: a quantum mechanism of classical gravity giving a possibility to compute the Newton constant; asymptotic freedom at short…

We use covariant techniques to examine the implications of the dynamical equivalence between geodesic motions and adiabatic hydrodynamic flows. Assuming that the metrics of a geodesically and a non-geodesically moving fluid are conformally…
