In this article, we consider Einstein-type manifolds with boundary which generalizes important geometric equations, like static vacuum and static perfect fluid. We investigate some geometric inequalities for those manifolds. Then, we…
We analyze junction conditions at a null or non-null hypersurface $\Sigma$ in a large class of scalar-tensor theories in arbitrary $n(\ge 3)$ dimensions. After showing that the metric and a scalar field must be continuous at $\Sigma$ as the…
We consider the dynamics of timelike spherical thin matter shells in vacuum. A general formalism for thin shells matching two arbitrary spherical spacetimes is derived, and subsequently specialized to the vacuum case. We first examine the…

Boundary term and Brown-York (BY) formalism, which is based on the Hamilton-Jacobi principle, are complimentary of each other as the gravitational actions are not, usually, well-posed. In scalar-tensor theory, which is an important…
Non-degenerate real hypersurfaces of almost Hermite-like manifolds are examined. Tangential real hypersurfaces are introduced and the main identities of such hypersurfaces are obtained. With the help of these identities, contact metric…
We introduce and study the notion of null manifold. This is a smooth manifold ${\mathcal N}$ endowed with a degenerate metric $\gamma$ with one-dimensional radical at every point. We also define the notion of ruled null manifold, which is a…

The past few years have seen a revived interest in quantum geometrical characterizations of band structures due to the rapid development of topological insulators and semi-metals. Although the metric tensor has been connected to many…
We analyze an alternative theory of gravity characterized by metrics that are tensor density of rank(0,2)and weight-1/2.The metric compatibility condition is supposed to hold. The simplest expression for the action of gravitational field is…
We consider elliptic surfaces $\mathcal{E}$ over a field $k$ equipped with zero section $O$ and another section $P$ of infinite order. If $k$ has characteristic zero, we show there are only finitely many points where $O$ is tangent to a…
One considers geometry with the intransitive equaivalence relation. Such a geometry is a physical geometry, i.e. it is described completely by the world function, which is a half of the squared distance function. The physical geometry…
We introduce the notion of geometric purity in rigidly-compactly generated tt-categories by considering exact triangles that are pure at each tt-stalk. We develop a systematic study of this concept, including examples and applications. In…
Starting from Israel equations for the spherically symmetric thin shells we introduce the effective potential and show how it can be used in constructing, without further thorough investigation, the corresponding Carter-Penrose diagrams…
In this paper geometry is studied with a novel approach. Every geometrical object is defined as a symbol which satisfies some properties. These symbols are then coded into a class of numbers which are named here as many dots numbers (MDN).…
A one parameter set of noncommutative complex algebras is given. These may be considered deformation quantisation algebras. The commutative limit of these algebras correspond to the algebra of polynomial functions over a manifold or…
The proper Euclidean geometry is considered to be metric space and described in terms of only metric and finite metric subspaces (sigma-immanent description). Constructing the geometry, one does not use topology and topological properties.…
In our previous work [H. Zejli, Int. J. Mod. Phys. D 34, 2550052 (2025), arXiv:2508.00035], we introduced a PT-symmetric wormhole model based on a bimetric geometry, capable of generating closed timelike curves (CTCs). In this paper, we…
In this paper, we introduce two notions on a surface in a contact manifold. The first one is called degree of transversality (DOT) which measures the transversality between the tangent spaces of a surface and the contact planes. The second…
