One method of studying the asymptotic structure of spacetime is to apply Penrose's conformal rescaling technique. In this setting, the Einstein equations for the metric and the conformal factor in the unphysical spacetime degenerate where…

We consider $n$-dimensional asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes in higher curvature gravitational theories with $n \geq 4$, by employing the conformal completion technique. We first argue that a condition on the Ricci tensor should be…

We discuss several approaches to determine the Casimir force in inertial frames of reference in different dimensions. On an example of a simple model involving mirrors in Rindler spacetime we show that Casimir's and Lifschitz's methods are…

We construct the $F(R)$ gravity models with exact particular solutions using the conformal transformation and the superpotential method for the corresponding models in the Einstein frame. The functions $F(R)$ are obtained explicitly. We…

Conformal field theories have been extremely useful in our quest to understand physical phenomena in many different branches of physics, starting from condensed matter all the way up to high energy. Here we discuss applications of…

We study the utilization of conformal compactification within the conformal approach to solving the constraints of general relativity for asymptotically flat initial data. After a general discussion of the framework, particular attention is…

We show that "Gravity at cosmological distances: Explaining the accelerating expansion without dark energy" recently proposed by J. Harada [6] is equivalent to the Einstein equation extended by the presence of an arbitrary conformal Killing…

A critical analysis of the relativistic formulation of matter reveals some surprising inconsistencies and paradoxes. Corrections are discovered which lead to the long-sought-after equality of the gravitational and inertial masses, which are…

Quantum-corrected equations of motion generically contain higher time derivatives, computed here in the setting of canonically quantized systems. The main example in which detailed derivations are presented is a general anharmonic…

We investigate the cosmological applications of Myrzakulov $F(R,T)$ gravity. In this theory ones uses a specific but non-special connection, and thus both curvature and torsion are dynamical fields related to gravity. We introduce a…

Recently, it is shown that, the quantum effects of matter are well described by the conformal degree of freedom of the space-time metric. On the other hand, it is a wellknown fact that according to Einstein's gravity theory, gravity and…

In this work we present a brief discussion about modified and extended cosmological models using current observational tests. We show that according to these astrophysical samples based in late universe measurements, theories like $f(R)$…

The present work is the second part of a series of computations for the self-mass-squared of the conformally coupled (CC) scalar interacting with gravitons. This work includes the kinetic-kinetic and kinetic-conformal parts, and thus…

Conformal symmetry always played an important role in field theory (both quantum and classical) and in gravity. We present construction of quantum conformal gravity and discuss its features regarding scattering amplitudes and quantum…

New symmetries have been found in Einstein-Maxwell spacetimes. New symmetries have also been found in imperfect fluid curved spacetimes. We will prove in this paper that we can extend these symmetries to spacetimes with higher curvature…

We revisit the interpretation of the cylindrically symmetric, static vacuum Levi-Civita metric, known in either Weyl, Einstein-Rosen, or Kasner-like coordinates. Despite the infinite axis source, we derive its Komar mass density through a…

A number of dynamical system formulations have been proposed over the last few years to analyse cosmological solutions in $f(R)$ gravity. The aim of this article is to provide a brief introduction to the different approaches, presenting…

In recent years Quantum Superstrings and Quantum Gravity approaches have come to rely on non differenciable spacetime manifolds. These throw up a noncommutative spacetime geometry and we consider the origin of mass and a related…

We clarify the relation between noncommutative spacetimes and multifractional geometries, two quantum-gravity-related approaches where the fundamental description of spacetime is not given by a classical smooth geometry. Despite their…

We simplify the gravitational equations which apply in accelerating spacetimes and are consistent with the cosmological principle. Solutions to these equations should be tantamount to all order re-summations of the perturbative leading…
