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…

We construct N=1 supersymmetrisations of some recently-proposed theories of critical gravity, conformal gravity, and extensions of critical gravity in four dimensions. The total action consists of the sum of three separately off-shell…

We study symmetry properties of the Einstein-Maxwell theory nonminimaly coupled to the dilaton field. We consider a static case with pure electric (magnetic) Maxwell field and show that the resulting system becomes a nonlinear sigma-model…

New Massive Gravity provides a non-linear extension of the Fierz-Pauli mass for gravitons in 2+1 dimensions. Here we construct a Weyl invariant version of this theory. When the Weyl symmetry is broken, the graviton gets a mass in analogy…

We construct a Weyl transverse diffeomorphism invariant theory of teleparallel gravity by employing the Weyl compensator formalism. The low-energy dynamics has a single spin two gravition without a scalar degree of freedom. By construction,…

In this paper a Weyl geometric scalar tensor theory of gravity with scalar field $\Phi$ and scale invariant cubic ("aquadratic") kinetic Lagrangian is introduced. Einstein gauge (comparable to Einstein frame in Jordan-Brans-Dicke theory) is…

The Einstein-Maxwell equations in D-dimensions admitting (D-3) commuting Killing vector fields have been investigated. The existence of the electric, magnetic and twist potentials have been proved. The system is formulated as the harmonic…

In this paper we review Penrose's Weyl curvature conjecture which states that the concept of gravitational entropy and the Weyl tensor is somehow linked, at least in a cosmological setting. We give a description of a certain entity…

Four-dimensional gravity admits many equivalent formulations - metric, Einstein-Cartan, teleparallel, McDowell-Mansouri, among others - each offering distinct advantages, particularly, in view of quantization. We propose a new formulation…

In this note, we evaluate the Weyl-invariant quadratic curvature tensors for the particular Weyl's gauge field constructed in the $3+1$-dimensional noncompact Weyl-Einstein-Yang-Mills model. We subsequently extend the model to its higher…

A two dimensional gauge theory is canonically associated to every Drinfeld double. For particular doubles, the theory turns out to be e.g. the ordinary Yang-Mills theory, the G/G gauged WZNW model or the Poisson $\sigma$-model that…

Already the simplest examples of Weyl geometry, the static space-time models of general relativity modified by an additional time-homogeneous Weylian length connection lead to beautiful cosmological models (Weyl universes) . The…

A new term describing interactions between charge and potentials may be added to the right hand side of the Einstein equations. In the proposed term an additional tensor has been introduced containing a charge density, analogous to the…

Let $E(\mathscr{A})$ denote the shift-invariant space associated with a countable family $\mathscr{A}$ of functions in $L^{2}(\mathbb{H}^{n})$ with mutually orthogonal generators, where $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ denotes the Heisenberg group. The…

Weyl invariant gravity has been investigated as the fundamental theory of the vector inflation. Accordingly, we consider a Weyl invariant extension of Dirac-Born-Infeld type gravity. We find that an appropriate choice of the metric removes…

We investigate some aspects of Moyal-Weyl deformations of superspace and their compatibility with supersymmetry. For the simplest case, when only bosonic coordinates are deformed, we consider a four dimensional supersymmetric field theory…

We study the variational principle over an Hilbert-Einstein like action for an extended geometry taking into account torsion and non-metricity. By extending the semi-Riemannian geometry, we obtain an effective energy-momentum tensor which…

This is a double exposure of the probabilistic construction of Kahler-Einstein metrics on a complex projective algebraic variety X - where the Kahler-Einstein metric emerges from a canonical random point process on X - and the variational…

We introduce a new Weyl-invariant and generally-covariant vector-tensor theory with higher derivatives. This theory can be induced by extending the mimetic construction to vector fields of conformal weight four. We demonstrate that in…

In a recent important paper, Hoffstein and Hulse generalized the notion of Rankin-Selberg convolution $L$-functions by defining shifted convolution $L$-functions. We investigate symmetrized versions of their functions. Under certain mild…
