The Einstein-Hilbert worldspace action is used to investigate the dynamics of extended object. In the Robertson-Walker worldspace, this is seen to introduce a pressureless density which could contribute to dark matter. Such pressureless…
Disformal transformation is a generalisation of the well-known conformal transformation commonly elaborated in mainstream graduate texts in gravity (relativity) and modern cosmology. This transformation is one of the most important…
The Newman-Penrose-Perjes formalism is applied to smooth contact structures on riemannian 3-manifolds. In particular it is shown that a contact 3-manifold admits an adapted riemannian metric if and only if it admits a metric with a…
From a view point of the moment map, we shall introduce the notion of Einstein-Hermitian generalized connections over a generalized K\"ahler manifold of symplectic type. We show that moduli spaces of Einstein-Hermitian generalized…
Let $M=G/K$ be a generalized flag manifold, that is the adjoint orbit of a compact semisimple Lie group $G$. We use the variational approach to find invariant Einstein metrics for all flag manifolds with two isotropy summands. We also…
We study 4-dimensional Poincar\'e-Einstein manifolds whose conformal class contains a K\"ahler metric. Such Einstein metrics are non-K\"ahler and admit a Killing field extending to the conformal infinity, and the Einstein equation reduces…
We consider the problem of finding complete conformal metrics with prescribed curvature functions of the Einstein tensor and of more general modified Schouten tensors. To achieve this, we reveal an algebraic structure of a wide class of…
We give new examples of compact, negatively curved Einstein manifolds of dimension $4$. These are seemingly the first such examples which are not locally homogeneous. Our metrics are carried by a sequence of 4-manifolds $(X_k)$ previously…
We present a coordinate free approach to derive curvature formulas for pseudo-Riemannian doubly warped product manifolds in terms of curvatures of their submanifolds. We also state the geodesics equation.
We show that two natural and a priori unrelated structures encapsulate the same data, namely certain commutative and associative product structures and a class of superintegrable Hamiltonian systems. More precisely, consider a Euclidean…
The gravitational dynamics of 3+1 dimensional covariant quantum spacetime in the IKKT or IIB matrix model is studied at one loop, combining the Yang-Mills-type matrix action with the induced Einstein-Hilbert action. This combined action…
In this article, we consider the almost Hermitian structure on $TM$ induced by a pair of a metric and an affine connection on $M$. We find the conditions under which $TM$ admits almost K\"ahler structures, K\"ahler structures and Einstein…
We give a characterization {\sl \`a la Obata} for certain families of K\''ahler manifolds. These results are in the same line as other extensions of the well-known Obata's rigidity theorem from \cite{Obata62}, like for instance the…
Page's Einstein metric on CP_2 # (-CP_2) is conformally related to an extremal Kaehler metric. Here we construct a family of conformally K\"ahler solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations that deforms the Page metric, while sweeping out…
There is a sequence of positive numbers $\delta_{2n}$, such that for any connected $2n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$, there are two mutually exclusive possibilities: $1)$ There is a complex structure on $M$ making it into a K\"ahler…
In [6], the higher-order spectral triple and its relative K-homology were studied. Motivated by the Kastler-Kalau-Walze theorem, we propose an extension of the Einstein-Hilbert action to the framework of higher-order spectral triples. To…
We develop methods for constructing and computing conformal invariants of submanifolds, with a particular emphasis on conformal submanifold scalars and conformally invariant integrals of natural submanifold scalars. These methods include a…

This article describes a formula for second variation of generalized Einstein-Hilbert functional on Riemannian manifolds. This work extends the definition of stable Einstein manifolds, and we present some properties.
A conformal product structure on a Riemannian manifold is a Weyl connection with reducible holonomy. We give the geometric description of all compact K\"ahler manifolds admitting conformal product structures
