The equations of motion of massive particles in GR are completely determined by the field equation. We utilize the particular form of Einstein's field equation and propose for the $N$-body problem of the equations that are Lorentz invariant…

A scalar model of gravity is considered. We propose Lorentz invariant field equation $\square f = k\eta_{ab}f_{,a}f_{,b}$. The aim of this model is to get, approximately, Newton's law of gravity. It is shown that $f=-\frac 1k\ln(1-k\frac…

We study a noncommutative deformation of general relativity where the gravitational field is described by a matrix-valued symmetric two-tensor field. The equations of motion are derived in the framework of this new theory by varying a…
The theory considered interprets gravity as a pressure force. Thus, the scalar gravitational field defines the gravity acceleration field. However, it also determines the relation between the flat ``background metric'' and a curved…

We derive the equations of motion of an action-dependent version of the Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian, as a specific instance of the Herglotz variational problem. Action-dependent Lagrangians lead to dissipative dynamics, which cannot be…
With Einstein's inertial motion (free-falling and non-rotating relative to gyroscopes), geodesics for non-relativistic particles can intersect repeatedly, allowing one to compute the space-time curvature $R^{\hat{0} \hat{0}}$ exactly.…
Starting from the classical Newton's second law which, according to our assumption, is valid in any instantaneous inertial rest frame of body that moves in Minkowskian space-time we get the relativistic equation of motion…
