We present a resum\'e on the modified theory of gravity, called pseudo-complex General Relativity (pc-GR). It is the second in a series of papers, where the first one (Boller et al. 2019, referred to as paper I) discussed the observational…

The general theory of relativity (GR) was proposed with an aim of incorporating Mach's principle mathematically. Despite early hopes, it became evident that GR did not follow Mach's principle. Over time, multiple researchers attempted to…

We consider the behavior of the tangential velocity of test particles moving in stable circular orbits in f(R) modified theories of gravity. A large number of observations at the galactic scale have shown that the rotational velocities of…

Utilizing various gauges of the radial coordinate we give a description of static spherically symmetric space-times with point singularity at the center and vacuum outside the singularity. We show that in general relativity (GR) there exist…

We revise general relativity (GR) from the perspective of calculus for moving surfaces (CMS). While GR is intrinsically constructed in pseudo-Riemannian geometry, a complete understanding of moving manifolds requires embedding in a higher…

The linearized Einstein theory in the approximately flat time-space is modified accounting for a massive graviton as a dark matter in the universe. On the basis of magnetic-type Maxwell- Proca -Vlasov equations, the interactions of the…

We construct a consistency test of General Relativity (GR) on cosmological scales. This test enables us to distinguish between the two alternatives to explain the late-time accelerated expansion of the universe, that is, dark energy models…

Theory of general relativity (GR) has been scrutinized by experts for almost a century and describes accurately all gravitational phenomena ranging from the solar system to the universe. However, this success is achieved provided one admits…

We develop an approach to compute observables beyond the linear regime of dark matter perturbations for general dark energy and modified gravity models. We do so by combining the Effective Field Theory of Dark Energy and Effective Field…

Our modified gravity theory (MOG) is a gravitational theory without exotic dark matter, based on an action principle. MOG has been used successfully to model astrophysical phenomena such as galaxy rotation curves, galaxy cluster masses, and…

We introduce a modified divergence law for the energy-momentum tensor in the theory of unimodular relativity. Consequently, an additional equation for the measure field follows from the divergence of the field equations. The equations of…
