We continue to study the spherically symmetric vacuum solutions of the tensor-four-scalars theory which is a modification of general relativity. Our aim is to construct vacuum solutions with asymptotically constant circular velocity curves…
Observations show that for disk galaxies the fourth power of the circular velocity of stars around the core of the galaxy is proportional to the luminosity L. This is known as the Tully-Fisher law. Since L is proportional to the mass M of…
Massive gravity previously constructed as the spin-2 quantum gauge theory leads in the mass zero limit to a modification of general relativity. As a relic from the massive theory a vector field v survives which couples to the metric only.…
In this article we find a four-dimensional metric for a large black hole immersed in dark matter. Specifically, we look for and find a static spherically symmetric black hole solution to the Einstein equations which gives, in the Newtonian…
If dark matter is dissipative then the distribution of dark matter within galactic halos can be governed by dissipation, heating and hydrostatic equilibrium. Previous work has shown that a specific model, in the framework of mirror dark…
Rotation curves of spiral galaxies \emph{i}) fall off much less steeply than the Keplerian curves do, and \emph{ii}) have asymptotic speeds almost proportional to the fourth root of the mass of the galaxy, the Tully-Fisher relation. These…
We consider f(R,T) modified theory of gravity, in which the gravitational Lagrangian is given by an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar and the trace of the energy-momentum tensor of the matter, in order to investigate the dark-matter…
Square-torsion gravity is applied to the long standing dark matter problem. In this context the theory reduces to General Relativity complemented by a dark stress-energy tensor due to the torsion of spacetime and is studied under the…
We show that Einstein's equations in a non-standard gauge have vacuum solutions with an asymptotically flat rotation curve as it is observed in the dark halos of galaxies. Introducing a material disk into this model we find a matter density…
We review the most recent evidence for the amazing properties of the density distribution of dark matter around spiral galaxies. Their rotation curves, coadded according to the galaxy luminosity, conform to an universal profile which can be…
We describe the motion of a particle in a central field in an expanding universe. Use is made of a double expansion in 1/c and 1/T, where c and T are the speed of light and the Hubble time. In the lowest approximation the fourth power of…
Galactic dark matter is modelled by a scalar field in order to effectively modify Kepler's law without changing standard Newtonian gravity. In particular, a solvable toy model with a self-interaction U(Phi) borrowed from non-topological…
We present a model for the dark matter in spiral galaxies, which is a result of a static and axial symmetric exact solution of the Einstein-Dilaton theory. We suposse that dark matter is a scalar field endowed with a scalar potential. We…
An exact, axially symmetric solution to the Einstein-Klein-Gordon field equations is employed to model the dark matter in spiral galaxies. The extended rotation curves from a previous analysis are used to fit the model and a very good…
Recent work on the mass distribution in spiral galaxies, using mainly HI observations, is reviewed. The principal problem is still to determine to what extent the dark matter is important in the inner parts of a galaxy, or in other words,…
We derive the first analytical formula for the density of "Dark Matter" (DM) at all length scales, thus also for the rotation curves of stars in galaxies, for the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation and for planetary systems, from Einstein's…
Dark matter is an important ingredient of galaxies, as was recognised early on by Ken Freeman himself! Evidence for dark matter halos is still indirect, based on analysing motions of tracers such as gas and stars. In a sense the visible…
We compare the central mass concentration of Cold Dark Matter halos found in cosmological N-body simulations with constraints derived from the Milky Way disk dynamics and from the Tully-Fisher relation. For currently favored values of the…
Dark matter is one of the pillars of the current standard model of structure formation: it is assumed to constitute most of the matter in the Universe. However, it can so far only be probed indirectly through its gravitational effects, and…
Without observational or theoretical modifications, Newtonian and general relativity seem to be unable to explain gravitational behavior of large structure of the universe. The assumption of dark matter solves this problem without modifying…
