We show that the exact solution of the two_superbody problem in N=2 Chern Simons Supergravity in 2+1 dimensions leads to a supermultiplet of space-times. This supersymmetric space-time is characterized by the two gauge invariant observables…

We introduce bosonic (p - 1)-form fields that couple to the spin connection of the Einstein-Cartan theory of gravity thus becoming a non-trivial source of space-time torsion. We analyze all the general features of both the matter and the…

Defining the electric and magnetic field vectors in curved spacetime requires a proper choice of the observer's frame four-vector. Related literature shows that this fundamental issue in physics still needs to be properly resolved. In…

We informally review the construction of spacetime geometries with multifractal and, more generally, multiscale properties. Based on fractional calculus, these continuous spacetimes have their dimension changing with the scale; they display…

Three variational vector equations are derived for the extended particle-field object located on the light cone. Point sources are excluded from the pure field equations and all physical magnitudes are free from divergences. Accepting 3D…

We show that a topology can be defined in the four dimensional space-time of special relativity so as to obtain a topological semigroup for time. The Minkowski 4-vector character of space-time elements as well as the key properties of…

Given two points of a Generalized Robertson-Walker spacetime, the existence, multiplicity and causal character of geodesic connecting them is characterized. Conjugate points of such geodesics are related to conjugate points of geodesics on…

We characterize all time-frequency representations that satisfy a general covariance property: any weak*-continuous bilinear mapping that intertwines time-frequency shifts on the configuration space with time-frequency shifts on phase space…

We consider all possible dynamical theories which evolve two transverse vector fields out of a three-dimensional Euclidean hyperplane, subject to only two assumptions: (i) the evolution is local in space, and (ii) the theory is invariant…

A unified field theory for the description of matter in a curved space is discussed. The description is based on a standard Lagrangianian formalism in a pseudo-Euclidian 4D continuum using a 3-index tensor as independent variables. The…

Motivated by situations with temporal evolution and spatial symmetries both singled out, we develop a new 2+1+1 decomposition of spacetime, based on a nonorthogonal double foliation. Time evolution proceeds along the leaves of the spatial…
