We discuss the possible relevance of some recent mathematical results and techniques on four-manifolds to physics. We first suggest that the existence of uncountably many R^4's with non-equivalent smooth structures, a mathematical…
The Weyl-Heisenberg symmetries originate from translation invariances of various manifolds viewed as phase spaces, e.g. Euclidean plane, semi-discrete cylinder, torus, in the two-dimensional case, and higher-dimensional generalisations. In…
We have proceeded analogy of Einstein tensor and alternative form of Einstein field equations for generic coeffcients of eight terms in third order of Lovelock Lagrangian. We have found constraint between the coeffcients into two forms, an…
The author has elsewhere given a complete classification of those compact oriented Einstein 4-manifolds on which the self-dual Weyl curvature is everywhere positive in the direction of some self-dual harmonic 2-form. In this article,…
We find all three-dimensional Einstein--Weyl spaces with the vanishing scalar curvature
A comparison is given between the Newtonian and Einsteinian frames of gravitation. From this it is shown that there exist a weak connection to gravitation and electromagnetism. This connection is then studied more thoroughly with the Weyl…
Causal structure, inertial path structure and compatibility with quantum mechanics demand no full Lorentz metric, but only an integrable Weyl geometry for space time (Ehlers/Pirani/Schild 1972, Audretsch e.a. 1984). A proposal of (Tann…
We construct a compact minitwistor space from a hyperelliptic curve with real structure and show that it yields a lot of new Lorentzian Einstein-Weyl spaces all of which are diffeomorphic to the 3-dimensional deSitter space. These…
Weyl conformal geometry is a gauge theory of scale invariance that naturally brings together the Standard Model (SM) and Einstein gravity. The SM embedding in this geometry is possible without new degrees of freedom beyond SM and Weyl…
We give a new realization of $Y(sl_3)$ via Cartan-Weyl elements. An algebraic description of Yangian Double $DY(sl_3)$, explicit comultiplication formulas and universal R-matrix are obtained in these terms.
We find automorphic corrections for the Lorentzian Kac--Moody algebras with the simplest generalized Cartan matrices of rank 3: A_{1,0} = 2 0 -1 0 2 -2 -1 -2 2 and A_{1,I} = 2 -2 -1 -2 2 -1 -1 -1 2 For A_{1,0} this correction is given by…
The very definition of an Einstein metric implies that all its geometry is encoded in the Weyl tensor. With this in mind, in this paper we derive higher-order Bochner type formulas for the Weyl tensor on a four dimensional Einstein…
There is an immense effort in search for various types of Weyl semimetals, of which the most fundamental phase consists of the minimal number of i.e. two Weyl points, but is hard to engineer in solids. Here we demonstrate how such…
We consider a 3-dimensional smooth manifold $M$ equipped with an arbitrary, \textit{a priori} non-integrable, distribution (plane field) ${\cal D}$ and a vector field $T$ transverse to ${\cal D}$. Using a 1-form $\omega$ such that ${\cal D}…
We show that on a surface locally every affine torsion-free connection is projectively equivalent to a Weyl connection. First, this is done using exterior differential system theory. Second, this is done by showing that the solutions of the…
A massless Weyl-invariant dynamics of a scalar, a Dirac spinor, and electromagnetic fields is formulated in a Weyl space, $W_4$, allowing for conformal rescalings of the metric and of all fields with nontrivial Weyl weight together with the…
We consider $d$-dimensional solutions to the electrovacuum Einstein-Maxwell equations with the Weyl tensor of type N and a null Maxwell $(p+1)$-form field. We prove that such spacetimes are necessarily aligned, i.e. the Weyl tensor of the…
We derive a Weyl invariant equation for Gravity by gauging the global Weyl invariance of vacuum Einstein equations. The equation is linear in the curvature and a natural generalization of Einstein equations to Weyl geometry. The system has…
We attempt to a physical interpretation of some known static vacuum solutions of Einstein's equations, namely, the A and B metrics of Ehlers and Kundt. All of them have axial symmetry, so they can be transformed to the Weyl form. In Weyl…
In a previous paper, we presented new results on non-Riemannian geometry. For an asymmetric connection, we showed that a projective change in the symmetric part generates a vector field that is not arbitrary, but is the gradient of a…
