We use the statistics of strong gravitational lensing based on the Cosmic Lens All-Sky Survey (CLASS) data to constrain cosmological parameters in a spatially-flat, inverse power-law potential energy density, scalar-field dark energy…
Classical solutions for a four-dimensional Minkowskian string effective action and an Euclidean one with cosmological constant term are derived. The former corresponds to electrovac solutions whereas the later solutions are identified as…
We show future global non-linear stability of surface symmetric solutions of the Einstein-Vlasov system with a positive cosmological constant. Estimates of higher derivatives of the metric and the matter terms are obtained using an…
It is shown that Einstein-Rosen bridges (wormholes) hypothetical objects that topologically connect separate locations in the Universe can be static solutions of the Einstein equations. The corresponding equations for bridges are reduced to…
We construct new classes of exact cosmological solutions to five dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory with two coupling constants for the dilaton-Maxwell term and dilaton-cosmological constant term. All the solutions are…
We revisit a weak gravitational lensing problem by constructing a setup which describes the actual system as accurately as possible and solving the null geodesic equations. Details are given for the case of a Universe driven only by a…
Original abstract: "We construct periodic solutions of nonlinear wave equations using analytic continuation. The construction applies in particular to Einstein equations, leading to infinite-dimensional families of time-periodic solutions…
We consider strong gravitational lensing by nearby stars. Using our wave-optical treatment of lensing phenomena, we study Einstein rings that may form around nearby stellar lenses. It is remarkable that these rings are bright and large…
In this paper we study the Einstein-Boltzmann system for Israel particles with a positive cosmological constant. We consider spatially homogeneous solutions of Bianchi types except IX and obtain future global existence and asymptotic…
Cosmological solutions of Einstein's equations for equilibrium statistical systems of particles with scalar interaction are investigated. It is shown that the scalar field can effectively change the state equation of a statistical system,…
We present a novel homogeneous and geometrically flat exact solution of Einstein's General Relativity equations for an ideal fluid. The solution, which describes an expanding/contracting hypercylinder, fits well with the observational…
In this paper we study the future global existence and late-time behaviour of the Einstein-Boltzmann system with Bianchi I symmetry and a positive cosmological constant $\Lambda>0$. For the Boltzmann equation we consider the scattering…
A review is given of the various approaches to and expressions for total energy-momentum and mass in the presence of a positive cosmological constant in Einstein's field equations, together with a discussion of the key conceptual questions,…
Recently, Rindler and Ishak have argued that the bending of light is, in principle, changed by the presence of a cosmological constant since one must consider not only the null geodesic equation, but also the process of measurement. I agree…
It is pointed out that any conformally transformed of a flat space-time metric $\ball g_{ij} = f(x)\;\eta_{ij}$ is a solution to Witten's equation of Chern-Simons gravity, which holds outside matter in (2+1) dimensions. It is also shown…
The static, cylindrically symmetric vacuum solutions with a cosmological constant in the framework of the Brans-Dicke theory are investigated. Some of these solutions admitting Lorentz boost invariance along the symmetry axis correspond to…
A spherically symmetric charged ideal fluid solution of Einstein field equation is given in the presence of the cosmological constant and two well known example of this type of solution is presented. If the matter is confined in a region,…
We obtain an exact solution for the Einstein's equations with cosmological constant coupled to a scalar, static particle in static, "spherically" symmetric background in 2+1 dimensions.
Debate persists as to whether the cosmological constant $\Lambda$ can directly modify the power of a gravitational lens. With the aim of reestablishing a consensus on this issue, I conduct a comprehensive analysis of gravitational lensing…
The static, apparently cylindrically symmetric vacuum solution of Linet and Tian for the case of a positive cosmological constant $\Lambda$ is shown to have toroidal symmetry and, besides $\Lambda$, to include three arbitrary parameters. It…
