We find a self-gravitating monopole and its black hole solution in Brans-Dicke theory. We mainly discuss the properties of these solutions in the Einstein frame and compare the solutions with those in general relativity.
We present new classical solutions of Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs theory, representing gravitating sphaleron-antisphaleron pair, chain and vortex ring solutions. In these static axially symmetric solutions, the Higgs field vanishes on…
The spectrum of known black-hole solutions to the stationary Einstein equations has been steadily increasing, sometimes in unexpected ways. In particular, it has turned out that not all black-hole-equilibrium configurations are…
The strong gravitational field near massive blackhole is an interesting regime to test General Relativity(GR) and modified gravity theories. The knowledge of spacetime metric around a blackhole is a primary step for such tests. Solving…
We study the static cosmological solutions and their stability at background level in the framework of massive bigravity theory with Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) metrics. By the modification proposed in the cosmological equations…
Recently Horava proposed a non-relativistic renormalisable theory of gravitation, which reduces to Einstein's general relativity at large distances, and that may provide a candidate for a UV completion of Einstein's theory. In this paper,…
We develop a convergence theory for non-monotone approximation schemes for fully nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations. Modern computational methods such as kernel-based collocation, spectral methods, physics-informed neural…
An important hurdle to be faced by any model proposing a resolution to the cosmological constant problem is Weinberg's venerable no go theorem. This theorem states that no local field equations including classical gravity can have a flat…
The existence of static and axially symmetric regions in a Friedman-Lemaitre cosmology is investigated under the only assumption that the cosmic time and the static time match properly on the boundary hypersurface. It turns out that the…
We consider a class of generalized Galileon theories within General Relativity in space-times of more than two spatial dimensions. We show that these theories do not admit stable, static, spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat and…
We construct spherically symmetric solutions to the Einstein-Euler equations, which contains a positive cosmological constant, say, the Einstein-Euler-de Sitter equations. We assume a realistic barotropic equation of state. Equilibria of…
We consider the coupled Einstein-Maxwell-Boltzmann system with cosmological constant in presence of a massive scalar field. The background metric is that of Friedman-Lema\^itre-Robertson-Walker space time in the spatially homogeneous case…
The 4-dimensional effective theory arising from an induced gravity action for a co-dimension greater than one brane consists of multiple galileon fields pi^I, I=1...N, invariant under separate Galilean transformations for each scalar, and…
General relativity probably is not the definitive theory of gravity, due a number or issues, both from the theoretical and from the observational point of view. Alternative theories of gravity were conceived to extend general relativity and…
A general relation for the total angular momentum of a regular solution of the Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs equations is derived. Two different physical configurations, rotating dyons and rotating magnetic dipoles are discussed as particular…
We present a family of gravitationally coupled electroweak monopole solutions in Einstein-Weinberg-Salam theory. Our result confirms the existence of globally regular gravitating electroweak monopole which changes to the magnetically…
The properties of static, spherically symmetric configurations are considered in the framework of two models of nonlocally corrected gravity, suggested in S. Deser and R. Woodard., Phys. Rev. Lett. 663, 111301 (2007), and S. Capozziello et…
In this talk I describe recent joint works with R.Schoen and with G.Gibbons and R.Schoen which prove the non-existence of certain asymptotically flat, stationary solutions of the Einstein equations with more than one body. The basic…
We consider the Einstein-Dirac system for a massive field, which describes the evolution of self-gravitating massive spinor fields, and we investigate the global evolution problem, when the initial data set is sufficiently close to data…
In this paper we consider the presence of the Wu-Yang magnetic monopole in the global monopole spacetime and their influence on the vacuum polarization effects around these two monopoles placed together. According to Wu-Yang [Nucl. Phys.…
