This elementary discussion generalizes a Weyl geometry to allow quaternion valued gauge transformations and classical Yang-Mills geometric fields. This development will assume that the symmetric metric tensor is real in some gauge, and will…

A class of globally scale-invariant scalar-tensor theories have been proposed to be invariant under a larger class of transformations that take the form of local Weyl transformations supplemented by a restriction that the conformal factor…

We begin a systematic study of Quantum Energy Inequalities (QEIs) in relation to local covariance. We define notions of locally covariant QEIs of both 'absolute' and 'difference' types and show that existing QEIs satisfy these conditions.…

Following a previous work on the quantization of a massless scalar field in a spacetime representing the head on collision of two plane waves which fucus into a Killing-Cauchy horizon, we compute the renormalized expectation value of the…

By calculating the Newman-Penrose Weyl tensor components of a perturbed spherically symmetric space-time with respect to invariantly defined classes of null tetrads, we give a physical interpretation, in terms of gravitational radiation, of…

The background field method is used to linearize the Weyl invariant scalar-tensor gravity, coupled with a Stueckelberg field. For a generic background metric, this action is found to be not invariant, under both diffeomorphism and…

Weyl's conformal theory of gravity is an extension of Einstein's theory of general relativity which associates metrics with 1-forms . In the case of locally integrable (closed non-exact) 1-forms the spacetime manifolds are no more simply…

Gravitational waves from the inspiral of a stellar-size black hole to a supermassive black hole can be accurately approximated by a point particle moving in a Kerr background. This paper presents progress on finding the electromagnetic and…

In this paper the massive neutrinos model arising due to the Snyder noncommutative geometry, proposed recently by the author is partially developed. By straightforward calculation it is shown that the masses of the chiral left- and…

In (3 + 1) spacetime dimensions the Rainich conditions are a set of equations expressed solely in terms of the metric tensor which are equivalent to the Einstein-Maxwell equations for non-null electromagnetic fields. Here we provide the…

We analyze linear Einstein--Maxwell perturbations of the superextremal Reissner--Nordstr\"om geometry in its static Kerr--Schild rest frame, viewing it as the nonlinear self-field of a single static point charge. In optical radial…

We develop the covariant phase space formulation of Weyl-transverse gravity (WTG) in the presence of general timelike and spacelike boundaries. WTG is classically equivalent to General Relativity (GR) but possesses a reduced gauge symmetry…

We are concerned with the precise modalities by which mathematical constructions related to energy-tensors can be adapted to a tetrad-affine setting. We show that, for fairly general gauge field theories formulated in that setting, two…

By using geometric methods and superenergy tensors, we find new simple criteria for the causal propagation of physical fields in spacetimes of any dimension. The method can be applied easily to many different theories and to arbitrary…

The Hyperboloidal Foliation Method (introduced by the authors in 2014) is extended here and applied to the Einstein equations of general relativity. Specifically, we establish the nonlinear stability of Minkowski spacetime for…

General classical theories of material fields in an arbitrary Riemann-Cartan space are considered. For these theories, with the help of equations of balance, new non-trivially generalized, manifestly generally covariant expressions for…

In this paper, we evaluate energy and momentum density distributions for the Weyl metric by using the well-known prescriptions of Einstein, Landau-Lifshitz, Papaterou and M$\ddot{o}$ller. The metric under consideration is the static…

Energy inequalities are derived for an elliptic-hyperbolic operator arising in plasma physics. These inequalities imply the existence of distribution and weak solutions to various closed boundary-value problems. An existence theorem is…

The weak energy condition is known to fail in general when applied to expectation values of the the energy momentum tensor in flat space quantum field theory. It is shown how the usual counter arguments against its validity are no longer…

We consider the global evolution problem for a model which couples together a nonlinear wave equation and a nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation, and was independently introduced by LeFloch and Y. Ma and by Q. Wang. By revisiting the…
