The Eisenhart lift is a variant of geometrization of classical mechanics with $d$ degrees of freedom in which the equations of motion are embedded into the geodesic equations of a Brinkmann-type metric defined on $(d+2)$-dimensional…
We present the Eisenhart-lift formalism in which the dynamics of a system that evolves under the influence of a conservative force is equivalent to that of a free system embedded in a curved manifold with one additional generalised…
Certain dissipative systems, such as Caldirola and Kannai's damped simple harmonic oscillator, may be modelled by time-dependent Lagrangian and hence time dependent Hamiltonian systems with $n$ degrees of freedom. In this paper we treat…
Inspired by the Bohlin transformation relating the planar harmonic oscillator to the Kepler problem, a variant of the Eisenhart lift is studied, in which a Lagrangian conservative dynamical system with d degrees of freedom is embedded into…
The Eisenhart lift establishes a fascinating connection between non-relativistic and relativistic physics, providing a space-time geometric understanding of non-relativistic Newtonian mechanics. What is still little known, however, is the…
The causal spacetimes admitting a covariantly constant null vector provide a connection between relativistic and non-relativistic physics. We explore this relationship in several directions. We start proving a formula which relates the…
This work originates from part of a final year undergraduate research project on the Eisenhart lift for Hamiltonian systems. The Eisenhart lift is a procedure to describe trajectories of a classical natural Hamiltonian system as geodesics…
This study introduces a novel approach for solving the cosmological field equations within scalar field theory by employing the Eisenhart lift. The field equations are reformulated as a system of geodesic equations for the Eisenhart metric.…
The Eisenhart lift of Riemannian type describes the motion of a particle as a geodesic in a higher-dimensional Riemannian manifold with one additional coordinate. It has recently been generalized to a scalar field system by introducing one…
The Eisenhart lift provides an elegant geometric description of a dynamical system of second order in terms of null geodesics of the Brinkmann-type metric. In this work, we attempt to generalize the Eisenhart method so as to encompass…
Causal variational principles, which are the analytic core of the physical theory of causal fermion systems, are found to have an underlying Hamiltonian structure, giving a formulation of the dynamics in terms of physical fields in…
The Eisenhart lift is extended to the case of dynamics described by action-dependent Lagrangians. The resulting Brinkmann metric depends on all coordinates. It is shown that the symmetries of the initial dynamics result in the existence of…
This work presents instructive, yet comprehensive derivation of quantized gravity theories in relativistic, classical, and semi-classical spacetime structure based on the Poincar\'e, Galilean, and Bargmann algebra, respectively. The…
It is well known in general relativity that trajectories of Hamiltonian systems lift to geodesics of pp-wave spacetimes, an example of a more general phenomenon known as the "Eisenhart lift." We review and expand upon the benefits of this…
The classical Eisenhart lift is a method by which the dynamics of a classical system subject to a potential can be recreated by means of a free system evolving in a higher-dimensional curved manifold, known as the lifted manifold. We extend…
The notion of singular generalized Finsler spacetime and singular generalized Berwald spacetime are introduced and their relevance for the description of classical gravity discussed. A method to construct examples of such generalized…
A reflexive relation on a set can be a starting point in defining the causal structure of a spacetime in General Relativity and other relativistic theories of gravity. If we identify this relation as the relation between lightlike separated…
The unique Nature of the Lorentz group in four dimensions is the root cause of the many remarkable properties of the Einstein spacetimes, in particular their operational structure on the 2-forms. We show how this operational structure can…
Applying the cosmological principle to Finsler spacetimes, we identify the Lie Algebra of symmetry generators of spatially homogeneous and isotropic Finsler geometries, thus generalising Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker geometry. In…
A generalization of General Relativity is studied. The standard Einstein-Hilbert action is considered in the Palatini formalism, where the connection and the metric are independent variables, and the connection is not symmetric. As a result…
