We study accelerating Universes with power-law scale-factors. We include shear and vorticity, a cosmological "constant" term, and spin from torsion, as in Einstein-Cartan's theory when a scalar-field of Brans-Dicke type acts in the model.…

The curved spacetime surrounding a rotating black hole dramatically alters the structure of nearby electromagnetic fields. The Wald field which is an asymptotically uniform magnetic field aligned with the angular momentum of the hole…

Unimodular gravity is an interesting approach to address the cosmological constant problem, since the vacuum energy density of quantum fields does not gravitate in this framework, and the cosmological constant appears as an integration…

Quasi-topological theories of gravity are known to resolve black-hole singularities. We investigate whether the same mechanism can remove cosmological singularities. Focusing on non-polynomial curvature quasi-topological gravities in $d=4$…

In recent papers it was shown that stochastic processes in the universe as a whole lead to discrete space time at Compton scales as also non-relativistic Quantum Mechanics. In this paper, we deduce the Dirac equation and thence a unified…

The role of space-time torsion in general relativity is reviewed in accordance with some recent results on the subject. It is shown that, according to the connection compatibility condition, the usual Riemannian volume element is not…

As the only gravity theory with quadratic curvature terms and second-order field equations, Einstein-dilaton-Gauss-Bonnet gravity is a natural testbed to probe the high-curvature regime beyond General Relativity in a fully nonperturbative…

How do the global properties of a Lorentzian manifold change when endowed with a vector field? This interesting question is tackled in this paper within the framework of Einstein-Aether (EA) theory which has the most general…

We are looking at a Dirac electron in the electromagnetic field of a plane monochrome polarized X-ray. It will be attempted to link the terms of a certain (joint) asymptotic expansion of the Heisenberg propagations of momentum- and…

The behavior of spin-half particles is discussed in the 3 + 1-dimensional constant curvature black hole (CCBH) spacetime. We use Schwarzschild-like coordinates, valid outside the black hole event horizon. The constant time surfaces…

Maxwell and Dirac fields in Friedmann-Robertson-Walker spacetime is investigated using the Newman-Penrose method. The variables are all separable, with the angular dependence given by the spin-weighted spherical harmonics. All the radial…

The dynamics of the torsion field is analyzed in the framework of the Covariant Canonical Gauge Theory of Gravity (CCGG), a De~Donder-Weyl Hamiltonian formulation of gauge gravity. The action is quadratic in both, the torsion and the…

Einstein-Kalb-Ramond (EKR) gravity is an alternative theory in which a rank-two antisymmetric tensor field, the Kalb-Ramond field, is nonminimally coupled to gravity, potentially generating Lorentz-violating backgrounds. In this work, we…

We consider a general class of quantum gravity-inspired, modified gravity theories, where the Einstein-Hilbert action is extended through the addition of all terms quadratic in the curvature tensor coupled to scalar fields with standard…

This article compares treatments of the Stern-Gerlach experiment across different physical theories, building up to a novel analysis of electron spin measurement in the context of classical Dirac field theory. Modeling the electron as a…

The spin-torsion theory is a gauge theory approach to gravity that expands upon Einstein's general relativity (GR) by incorporating the spin of microparticles. In this study, we further develop the spin-torsion theory to examine spherically…

It is well known that only the axial piece of the torsion couples minimally to fermions in a Riemann-Cartan geometry, while the other ones decouple. In this paper, we consider the Dirac field minimally coupled to a dynamical background with…

Black holes are the simplest objects in the universe. They correspond to extreme deformations of spacetime geometry, and can exist even devoid of matter. In general relativity, (electro)vacuum black holes are uniquely determined by their…

In our recently proposed quantum theory of gravity, the universe is made of `atoms' of space-time-matter (STM). Planck scale foam is composed of STM atoms with Planck length as their associated Compton wave-length. The quantum dispersion…

Quasi-one-dimensional spin-Peierls and spin-ladder systems are characterized by a gap in the spin-excitation spectrum, which can be modeled at low energies by that of Dirac fermions with a mass. In the presence of disorder these systems can…
