A brief comment on the paper hep-th/0508051 (with the title mentioned above) by F. Nasseri.
Torsion effects, including a spin precession in the torsion field, are considered. Some properties of neutrinos in cosmology are discussed. In the framework of Trautman's cosmological model with torsion estimated is a specific angular…
A personal recollection of events that preceded the construction of Supergravity and of some subsequent developments.
We give a simple and self contained introduction to quaternions and their practical usage in dynamics. The rigid body dynamics are presented in full details. In the appendix, some more exotic relations are given that allow to write more…
Following ideas from a preprint of the second author, see [2], we investigate relations of dynamical Teichmuller spaces with dynamical objects. We also establish some connections with the theory of deformations of inverse limits and…
This article, written in honor of Fritz Rohrlich, briefly surveys the role of topology in physics.

We review some aspects of string tachyon dynamics with special emphasis on effective actions
The Schwarzschild solution is a complete solution of Einstein's field equations for a static spherically symmetric field. The Einstein's field equations solutions appear in the literature, but in different ways corresponding to different…
Using data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey we study correlations between directions of galaxy angular momenta determined from images of spiral galaxies and various observables derived from the reconstructed initial conditions. We find an…
I will summarize the numerous contributions which were presented in the session, Hadronic and Spin Physics, largely dominated by new experimental results.
This expository paper features a few highlights of Richard Stanley's extensive work in Ehrhart theory, the study of integer-point enumeration in rational polyhedra. We include results from the recent literature building on Stanley's work,…
Shape dynamics is an alternative background-independent approach to classical dynamics that implements Leibnizian philosophy and Mach's Principles. It is a formulation of the dynamics of the universe in terms of the intrinsic and relational…
A new treatment of the gravitational energy on the basis of 4-index gravitational equations is reviewed. The gravitational energy for the Schwarzschild field is considered.
We summarize recent work on the structure and dynamics of the Galactic bar and inner disk. Current work focusses on constructing a quantitative model which integrates NIR photometry, source count observations, gas kinematics, stellar…
We review recent findings on spin glass models. Both the equilibrium properties and the dynamic properties are covered. We focus on progress in theoretical, in particular numerical, studies, while its relationship to real magnetic materials…
