The motion of spinning massless particles in gravitationally curved backgrounds is revisited by considering new types of constraints. Those constraints guarantee zero mass ($P_\mu P^\mu=0$) and they allow for the possibility of trajectories…
Circular massless cosmic strings which move with the speed of light in the de Sitter universe are described. Construction of the background geometry is based on parabolic isometries of the de Sitter spacetime. Microscopic circular cosmic…
A new model of nonlinear electrodynamics with a dimensional parameter $\beta$ coupled to gravity is considered. We show that an accelerated expansion of the universe takes place if the nonlinear electromagnetic field is the source of the…
Geodesic equations of timelike and null charged particles in the Ernst metric are studied. We consider two distinct forms of the Ernst solution where the Maxwell potential represents either a uniform electric or magnetic field. Circular…
In this work, we explore the properties of timelike geodesic for particles with zero energy. We found some similarities between geodesic motion in Schwarzschild black hole and timelike geodesics for particles with zero energy. We show, that…
We argue that the geodesic hypothesis based on auto-parallels of the Levi-Civita connection may need refinement in theories of gravity with additional scalar fields. This argument is illustrated with a re-formulation of the Brans-Dicke…
In our previous work (Phys. Rev. Research 7, 033079), we derived the metric tensor for cylindrically shaped pulses with uniform energy density. Building upon that framework, we derive the complete set of geodesics with zero angular…
Superluminal particles are not excluded by particle physics. The apparent Lorentz invariance of the laws of physics does not imply that space-time is indeed minkowskian. Matter made of solutions of Lorentz-invariant equations would feel a…
With the aid of a Fermi-Walker chart associated with an orthonormal frame attached to a time-like curve in spacetime, a discussion is given of relativistic balance laws that may be used to construct models of massive particles with spin,…
We extend the canonical formalism for the motion of $N$-particles in lineal gravity to include charges. Under suitable coordinate conditions and boundary conditions the determining equation of the Hamiltonian (a kind of transcendental…
The dynamics of test particles in $f(\mathcal G)$ modified Gauss-Bonnet gravity is investigated. It is shown that in $f({\mathcal G})$ gravity models with non-minimal coupling to matter, particles experience an extra force normal to their…
The apparent Lorentz invariance of the laws of physics does not imply that space-time is indeed minkowskian. Matter made of solutions of Lorentz-invariant equations would feel a relativistic space-time even if the actual space-time had a…
In order to classify and understand the spacetime structure, investigation of the geodesic motion of massive and massless particles is a key tool. So the geodesic equation is a central equation of gravitating systems and the subject of…
We study the cosmology of an extended version of Horndeski theories with second-order equations of motion on the flat Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) background. In addition to a dark energy field $\chi$ associated with the…
The noncommutative space of light-like worldlines that is covariant under the light-like (or null-plane) $\kappa$-deformation of the (3+1) Poincar\'e group is fully constructed as the quantization of the corresponding Poisson homogeneous…
We prove that the charge-scalar field (also known as the massless Maxwell-Klein-Gordon) equations are globally stable on (3+1) dimensional Minkowski space for small initial data in certain gauge covariant weighted Sobolev spaces. These…
We first investigate the form the General Relativity Theory would have taken had the gravitational mass and the inertial mass of material objects been different. We then extend this analysis to electromagnetism and postulate an equivalence…
The classical free-space solutions of Maxwell's equations for light propagation in one dimension include wave packets of any shape that travel at the speed of light. This includes highly-localised wave packets that remain localised at all…
A great number of macroquantum laws connecting gravity and electromagnetism if found empirically. To describe them the model of anisotropic gravitational field is proposed. This field is build as a superposition of planes and force lines…
We derive the covariant equations of motion for Maxwell field theory and electrodynamics in multiscale spacetimes with weighted Laplacian. An effective spacetime-dependent electric charge of geometric origin naturally emerges from the…
