We study 2-dimensional Logarithmic Galilean Conformal Algebra (LGCA) by making use of a contraction of Topologically Massive Gravity at critical point. We observe that using a naive contraction at the critical point fails to give a well…
Galilean conformal algebra (GCA) is an Inonu-Wigner (IW) contraction of a conformal algebra, while Newton-Hooke string algebra is an IW contraction of an AdS algebra which is the isometry of an AdS space. It is shown that the GCA is a…
Non-relativistic versions of the AdS/CFT conjecture have recently been investigated in some detail. These have primarily been in the context of the Schrodinger symmetry group. Here we initiate a study based on a {\it different}…
We discuss non-relativistic conformal algebras generalizing the Schr\"odinger algebra. One instance of these algebras is a conformal, acceleration-extended, Galilei algebra, which arises also as a contraction of the relativistic conformal…
Complexified spacetime algebra is defined as the geometric (Clifford) algebra of spacetime with complex coefficients, isomorphic $\mathcal{G}_{1,4}$. By resorting to matrix representation by means of Dirac-Pauli gamma matrices, the paper…
The article deals with G\"odel-like solutions in the context of Galilean gravity, a geometric formulation of non-relativistic gravitation defined on a five-dimensional Galilean manifold. Within this framework, non-relativistic matter fields…
In previous work by two of the present authors, twistors were re-interpreted as 4-d spinors with a position dependence within the formalism of geometric (Clifford) algebra. Here we extend that approach and justify the nature of the position…
We begin from the generalised eight-dimensional Minkowski spacetime structure, previously developed in Clifford geometric algebra $ C\ell(\Re^3) $. We propose that this is the correct algebraic representation for physical three-dimensional…
This article provides us with a unifying classification of the conformal infinitesimal symmetries of non-relativistic Newton-Cartan spacetime. The Lie algebras of non-relativistic conformal transformations are introduced via the Galilei…

We show that tensoriality constraints in noncommutative Riemannian geometry in the 2-dimensional bicrossproduct model quantum spacetime algebra [x,t]=\lambda x drastically reduce the moduli of possible metrics g up to normalisation to a…
In this paper, we construct a Spectrum Generating Algebra (SGA) for a quantum system with purely continuous spectrum: the quantum free particle in a Lobachevski space with constant negative curvature. The SGA contains the geometrical…
We present a covariant study of static space-times, as such and as solutions of gravity theories. By expressing the relevant tensors through the velocity and the acceleration vectors that characterise static space-times, the field equations…
Problems involving geometric data arise in physics, chemistry, robotics, computer vision, and many other fields. Such data can take numerous forms, for instance points, direction vectors, translations, or rotations, but to date there is no…
We give a brief introduction to the study of the algebraic structures -- and their geometrical interpretations -- which arise in the BRST construction of a conformal string background. Starting from the chiral algebra $\cA$ of a string…
We apply the nonlinear realizations method for constructing new Galilean conformal mechanics models. Our starting point is the Galilean conformal algebra which is a non-relativistic contraction of its relativistic counterpart. We calculate…
The crucial but undocumented Dolan-McCrea variational method is richly applied. Using the said method, we analytically derived a field equation comprising entirely of geometric structures and we investigate how effectively it describes…
