We construct a plethora of new Euclidean AdS-Taub-NUT and bolt solutions of several four- and six-dimensional higher-curvature theories of gravity with various base spaces $\mathcal{B}$. In $D=4$, we consider Einsteinian cubic gravity, for…
The Hamiltonian formulation of Horava gravity is derived. In a closed universe the Hamiltonian is a sum of generators of gauge symmetries, the foliation-preserving diffeomorphisms, and vanishes on shell. The scalar constraint is second…
We study general relativity in the framework of non-commutative differential geometry. In particular, we introduce a gravity action for a space-time which is the product of a four dimensional manifold by a two-point space. In the simplest…
On the basis of dynamic quantization method we build in this paper a new mathematically correct quantization scheme of gravity. In the frame of this scheme we develop a canonical formalism in tetrad-connection variables in 4-D theory of…
We construct new classes of exact solutions of the 4D vacuum Einstein equations which describe ellipsoidal black holes, black tori and combined black hole -- black tori configurations. The solutions can be static or with anisotropic…
The stability properties of the Einstein Static solution of General Relativity are altered when corrective terms arising from modification of the underlying gravitational theory appear in the cosmological equations. In this paper the…
The Einstein-Hilbert action with a cosmological constant is the most general local four-dimensional action leading to second-order derivative equations of motion that are symmetric and divergence free. In higher dimensions, additional terms…
We consider the most general action for gravity which is quadratic in curvature. In this case first order and second order formalisms are not equivalent. This framework is a good candidate for a unitary and renormalizable theory of the…
In this paper, we study the linearized gravity theory in the near horizon region of the Schwarzschild black hole in four dimensional spacetime. Under the Newman-Unti gauge, we derive the most general near horizon symmetry and solution space…
Since the recent derivation of a well-defined $D\rightarrow 4$ limit for regularized 4D Einstein Gauss-Bonnet (4DEGB) gravity, there has been considerable interest in testing it as an alternative to Einstein's general theory of relativity.…
We consider nonlocal modification of the Einstein theory of gravity in framework of the pseudo-Riemannian geometry. The nonlocal term has the form $\mathcal{H}(R) \mathcal{F}(\Box)\mathcal {G}(R)$, where $\mathcal{H}$ and $\mathcal{G}$ are…
In this work we consider a model for gravity in 4-dimensional space-time originally proposed by A. Chamseddine which may be derived by a 5-dimensional Chern-Simons theory. Its topological origin makes it an interesting candidate for an…
When the full connection of Weyl conformal gravity is varied instead of just the metric, the resulting vacuum field equations reduce to the vacuum Einstein equation, up to the choice of local units, if and only if the torsion vanishes. This…
In a recent paper we claimed that there there are no slowly rotating, stationary, axisymmetric black holes in the infrared limit of Horava-Lifshitz gravity, provided that they are regular everywhere apart from the central singularity. Here…
In this paper, the hybrid metric-Palatini gravity is an approach to modified gravity in which is added to the usual Einstein-Hilbert action a supplementary term containing a Palatini-type correction of the form $f({\cal R},T)$. Here, ${\cal…
We present a gravitational field theory that implements Horava's proposal of foliation-preserving-diffeomorphisms symmetry and higher spatial curvature directly in the canonical formalism. Due to the higher spatial derivative the theory is…
Horava gravity breaks Lorentz symmetry by introducing a dynamical timelike scalar field (the khronon), which can be used as a preferred time coordinate (thus selecting a preferred space-time foliation). Adopting the khronon as the time…
We find a vacuum stationary twisted solution in four-dimensional Einstein gravity. Its frame dragging angular velocities are antisymmetric with respect to the equatorial plane. It possesses a symmetry of joint inversion of time and parity…
Using as inspiration the well known chiral effective lagrangian describing the interactions of pions at low energies, in these lectures we review the quantization procedure of Einstein gravity in the spirit of effective field theories. As…
We try to lay down the foundations of a Newtonian theory where inertia and gravitational fields appear in a unified way aiming to reach a better understanding of the general relativistic theory. We also formulate a kind of equivalence…
