The (ordinary) Sachs-Wolfe effect relates primordial matter perturbations to the temperature variations $\delta T/T$ in the cosmic microwave background radiation; $\delta T/T$ can be observed in all directions around us. A standard but…

We carefully study the stable problem of the Rindler space time by the scalar wave perturbation. Using the two different coordinate systems, the scalar wave equation is investigated. The results are different in these two cases. They are…

It is shown, that the conventional presentation of the Maxwell equations for the electromagnetic field in the Riemannian space-time appears to be problematic. The reason of hesitations is the fact, that a solution of the Maxwell equations…

The integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) effect in a Lambda dominated universe can be an important factor in the evolution of cosmic microwave background fluctuations. With the inclusion of cosmological constant we present the complete analytic…
A number of different mechanisms exist which can produce vector perturbations to the metric. One might think that such perturbations could deflect light rays from distant sources, producing observable effects. Indeed, this is expected to be…
In this paper, it is shown, using a geometrical approach, the isotropy of the velocity of light measured in a rotating frame in Minkowski space-time, and it is verified that this result is compatible with the Sagnac effect. Furthermore, we…
The velocity of light is invariant under transformations that alter space-time metrics, while leaving Maxwell's equations invariant. A one-parameter special conformal invariance group of the equations exposes an ambiguity in current…
We derive the expressions on the observed light-cone for some relevant cosmological gauge invariant variables, such as the Mukhanov-Sasaki variable and $E$- and $B$- modes of the tensor perturbations. Since the structure of the light-cone…
This work comes as the second part in a series of investigations into the dynamics of rotating waves as solutions to lattice dynamical systems. Such nonlinear waves as solutions to mathematical equations are of great interest throughout the…
