Local symmetries of the action for a relativistic particle with curvature and torsion of its world curve in the (2+1)-dimensional space-time are studied. With the help of the method, worked out recently by the authors (Phys.Rev., D56, 1135,…
We consider dynamics of massless particle in 2d spacetimes with constant curvature. We analyze different examples of spacetime. Dynamical integrals are constructed from spacetime symmetry related to $sl(2.{\bf R})$ algebra. Mass-shell…
We study tensor products of infinite dimensional representations (not corepresentations) of the $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ quantum group. Eigenvectors of certain self-adjoint elements are obtained, and coupling coefficients between different…
When one splits spacetime into space plus time, the Weyl curvature tensor (vacuum Riemann tensor) gets split into two spatial, symmetric, and trace-free (STF) tensors: (i) the Weyl tensor's so-called "electric" part or tidal field, and (ii)…
A. Weinstein has conjectured a nice looking formula for a deformed product of functions on a hermitian symmetric space of non-compact type. We derive such a formula for symmetric symplectic spaces using ideas from geometric quantization and…
We study the quantization of geometry in the presence of a cosmological constant, using a discretiza- tion with constant-curvature simplices. Phase space turns out to be compact and the Hilbert space finite dimensional for each link. Not…
The paper is continuation of [6] where we have discussed some classical and quantization problems of rigid bodies of infinitesimal size moving in Riemannian spaces. Strictly speaking, we have considered oscillatory dynamical models on…
We derive point-wise and integral rigidity/gap results for a closed manifold with harmonic Weyl curvature in any dimension. In particular, there is a generalization of Tachibana's theorem for non-negative curvature operator. The key…
In this talk notes we expose the possibility to induce the cosmological constant from extra dimensions, in a geometrical framework where our four-dimensional Riemannian space-time is embedded into a five-dimensional Weyl integrable space.…
The necessary and sufficient conditions for a spacetime with an invariant frame to admit a group of isometries of dimension $r$ are given in terms of the connection tensor $H$ associated with this frame. In Petrov-Bel types I, II and III,…
We prove that the Ricci scalar curvature and the Berwald scalar curvature of a two-dimensional Finsler space, considered over a vector field on the 3-dimensional flat space, are naturally related to 2-dimensional electro-capillary phenomena…
We compute explicitly a star product on the Minkowski space whose Poisson bracket is quadratic. This star product corresponds to a deformation of the conformal spacetime, whose big cell is the Minkowski spacetime. The description of…
Quantum fields are investigated in the (2+1)-open-universes with non-trivial topologies by the method of images. The universes are locally de Sitter spacetime and anti-de Sitter spacetime. In the present article we study spacetimes whose…
The quantum phase-space dynamics driven by hyperbolic P\"oschl-Teller (PT) potentials is investigated in the context of the Weyl-Wigner quantum mechanics. The obtained Wigner functions for quantum superpositions of ground and first-excited…

We generalize the Fenchel theorem to strong spacelike (which means that the tangent vector and the curvature vector span a spacelike 2-plane at each point) closed curves with index 1 in the 3-dimensional Lorentz space, showing that the…
We consider the two-dimensional Vlasov-Poisson system to model a two-component plasma whose distribution function is constant with respect to the third space dimension. First, we show how this two-dimensional Vlasov-Poisson system can be…
