We prove the non existence of massive scalar, vector and tensor hairs outside the surface of a static and stationary compact reflecting star. Our result is the extension of the no hair theorem for black holes to horizonless compact…
The existence of a simple spherically symmetric and static solution of the Einstein equations in the presence of a cosmological constant vanishing outside a definite value of the radial distance is investigated. A particular succession of…
If spacetime possesses extra dimensions of size and curvature radii much larger than the Planck or string scales, the dynamics of these extra dimensions should be governed by classical general relativity. We argue that in general…
Gravity whose nature is fundamental to the understanding of solar system, galaxies and the structure and evolution of the Universe, is theorized by the assumption of curved spacetime, according to Einstein`s general theory of relativity…
We argue that the natural framework for embedding the ideas of deformed, or doubly, special relativity (DSR) into a curved spacetime is a generalisation of Einstein-Cartan theory, considered by Stelle and West. Instead of interpreting the…

A crucial step in the history of General Relativity was Einstein's adoption of the principle of general covariance which demands a coordinate independent formulation for our spacetime theories. General covariance helps us to disentangle a…
This paper concerns the motion of a relativistic string in a curved space-time. As a general framework, we first analyze relativistic string equations, i.e., the basic equations for the motion of a one-dimensional extended object in a…
We introduce a new type of generating theorems in General Relativity for anisotropic, static, spherically symmetric solutions of the Einstein field equations. The results are used to derive a class of solutions that can serve as new models…

In 1981 Wyman classified the solutions of the Einstein--Klein--Gordon equations with static spherically symmetric spacetime metric and vanishing scalar potential. For one of these classes, the scalar field linearly grows with time. We…

In this paper we have applied the generalized Kerr-Schild transformation finding a new family of stationary perfect-fluid solutions of the Einstein field equations. The procedure used combines some well-known techniques of null and timelike…
A nonsingular localized static classical solution is constructed for standard Einstein gravity coupled to an $SO(3)\times SO(3)$ chiral model of scalars (Skyrme model). This solution corresponds to a spacetime defect and its construction…
As a sequel to our previous work\cite{Feng2020}, we propose in this paper a quantization scheme for Dirac field in de Sitter spacetime. Our scheme is covariant under both general transformations and Lorentz transformations. We first present…

We study in some detail the "extended Kerr-Schild" formulation of general relativity, which decomposes the gauge-independent degrees of freedom of a generic metric into two arbitrary functions and the choice of a flat background tetrad. We…
The group of Conservative transformations is an enlargement of the group of diffeomorphisms which leads to a richer geometry than that of general relativity. The field variables of the theory are the usual orthonormal tetrads and also…
