The variational theory of the perfect fluid with intrinsic spin and dilatonic charge (dilaton-spin fluid) is developed. The spin tensor obeys the classical Frenkel condition. The Lagrangian density of such fluid is stated, and the equations…

We have solved the Einstein equations of general relativity for a class of metrics with constant spatial curvature and found a non-vanishing Weyl tensor in the presence of an energy-momentum tensor with an anisotropic pressure component.…

We develop the covariant phase space formulation of Weyl-transverse gravity (WTG) in the presence of general timelike and spacelike boundaries. WTG is classically equivalent to General Relativity (GR) but possesses a reduced gauge symmetry…

We determine the leading order fall-off behaviour of the Weyl tensor in higher dimensional Einstein spacetimes (with and without a cosmological constant) as one approaches infinity along a congruence of null geodesics. The null congruence…

The equations of General Relativity are recast in the form of a wave equation for the Weyl tensor. This allows to reformulate gravitational wave theory in terms of curvature waves, rather than metric waves. The existence of two transverse…

In physical theories where the energy (action) is localized near a submanifold of Euclidean (Minkowski) space, there is a universal expression for the energy (or the action). We derive a multipole expansion for the energy that has a finite…

Structure formation heralds the era of deviation of the matter content of the Universe away from thermal equilibrium, so the gravitational contribution to entropy, in the form of Weyl curvature, must become active in order for the overall…
