We consider compact hypersurfaces in an $(n+1)$-dimensional either Riemannian or Lorentzian space $N^{n+1}$ endowed with a conformal Killing vector field. For such hypersurfaces, we establish an integral formula which, especially in the…

We consider the deformation of the Schwarzschild solution in general relativity due to spherically symmetric quantum fluctuations of the metric and the matter fields. In this case, the 4D theory of gravity with Einstein action reduces to…

In view of the well-known correspondence between gravitational fields and space-time distributions on a world manifold X, the criterion of gravitation singularities as singularities of these distributions is suggested. In the germ terms,…

The gravitational field of a particle of small mass \mu moving through curved spacetime is naturally decomposed into two parts each of which satisfies the perturbed Einstein equations through O(\mu). One part is an inhomogeneous field…

The field equations of the recent nonlocal generalization of Einstein's theory of gravitation are presented in a form that is reminiscent of general relativity. The implications of the nonlocal field equations are studied in the case of…

It has been shown that if one solves self-consistently the semiclassical Einstein equations in the presence of a quantum scalar field, with a cutoff on the number of modes, spacetime become flatter when the cutoff increases. Here we extend…
