The Universe is homogeneous and isotropic on large scales, so on those scales it is usually modelled as a Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) space-time. The non-linearity of the Einstein field equations raises concern over…
We show that Einstein's field equations for spatially flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) space times have a form invariance symmetry (FIS) realized by the form invariance transformations (FIT) which are indeed generated by an invertible…
We present a classification of the possible regular, spherically symmetric solutions of the Einstein-Yang-Mills system which is based on a bundle theoretical analysis for arbitrary gauge groups. It is shown that such solitons must be of…
We show how to use the quasi-Maxwell formalism to obtain solutions of Einstein's field equations corresponding to homogeneous cosmologies - namely Einstein's universe, Godel's universe and the Ozsvath-Farnsworth-Kerr class I solutions -…
We discuss the most general field equations for cosmological spacetimes for theories of gravity based on non-linear extensions of the non-metricity scalar and the torsion scalar. Our approach is based on a systematic symmetry-reduction of…
We establish the existence of $1$-parameter families of $\epsilon$-dependent solutions to the Einstein-Euler equations with a positive cosmological constant $\Lambda >0$ and a linear equation of state $p=\epsilon^2 K \rho$, $0<K\leq 1/3$,…
We study the time development of strongly coupled ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang Mills (SYM) theory on cosmological Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) backgrounds via the AdS/CFT correspondence. We implement the cosmological background as a…
The linearly polarized Gowdy $T^3$ model with a massless scalar field with the same symmetries as the metric is quantized by applying a hybrid approach. The homogeneous geometry degrees of freedom are loop quantized, fact which leads to the…
In this paper, we present all constant solutions of the Yang-Mills equations with ${\rm SU}(2)$ gauge symmetry for an arbitrary constant non-Abelian current in Euclidean space ${\mathbb R}^n$ of arbitrary finite dimension $n$. Using the…
We present variational formulations of gauge theories and Einstein--Yang-Mills equations in the spirit of Kaluza-Klein theories. For gaugetheories, only a topological fibration is assumed. For gravitation coupled with gauge fields, no…
The Einstein evolution equations are studied in a gauge given by a combination of the constant mean curvature and spatial harmonic coordinate conditions. This leads to a coupled quasilinear elliptic--hyperbolic system of evolution…
We study Einstein-Yang-Mills equations in the presence of a gravitating non-topological soliton field configuration consisted of a Higgs doublet, in Brans-Dicke and general scalar-tensor gravitational theories. The results of General…
We develop approximation methods in the hybrid quantization of the Gowdy model with linear polarization and a massless scalar field, for the case of three-torus spatial topology. The loop quantization of the homogeneous gravitational sector…
We study the Yang-Mills-Higgs system within the framework of general relativity. In the static situation, using Bogomol'nyi type analysis, we derive a positive-definite energy functional which has a lower bound. Specializing to the gauge…
We extend the traditional formulation of Gauge Field Theory by incorporating the (non-Abelian) gauge group parameters (traditionally simple spectators) as new dynamical (nonlinear-sigma-model-type) fields. These new fields interact with the…
We review basic features of cosmological models with large-scale classical non-Abelian Yang-Mills (YM) condensates. There exists a unique SU(2) YM configuration (generalizable to larger gauge groups) compatible with homogeneity and isotropy…
We construct static axially symmetric solutions of SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs theory in the topologically trivial sector, representing gravitating monopole--antimonopole pairs, linked to the Bartnik-McKinnon solutions.
In this paper we study cosmological solutions to the Einstein--Euler equations. We first establish the future stability of nonlinear perturbations of a class of homogeneous solutions to the relativistic Euler equations on fixed linearly…
Isotropic cosmological singularities are singularities which can be removed by rescaling the metric. In some cases already studied (gr-qc/9903008, gr-qc/9903009, gr-qc/9903018) existence and uniqueness of cosmological models with data at…
The evolution of physical and gauge degrees of freedom in the Einstein and Yang-Mills theories are separated in a gauge-invariant manner. We show that the equations of motion of these theories can always be written in flux-conservative…
