Polarity reversals are a key feature of Earth's magnetic field, yet the processes governing them are still poorly understood. Dipole reversals have been found in many numerical dynamo simulations and often occur close to the transition…

For various reasons, it seems necessary to include complex saddle points in the "Euclidean" path integral of General Relativity. But some sort of restriction on the allowed complex saddle points is needed to avoid various unphysical…

Embedding theorems have continued to be a topic of interest in the general theory of relativity since these help connect the classical theory to higher-dimensional manifolds. This paper deals with spacetimes of embedding class one, i.e.,…
