When describing gravity at high energies it is natural to introduce terms quadratic in the curvature as first corrections to the Einstein-Hilbert action. Static, spherically symmetric classical solutions are studied in the case of the…
If the presence of a gravitational field breaks the Lorentz symmetry valid for special relativity, an "absolute motion" might be detectable. We summarize a scalar theory of gravity with a such "ether", which starts from a tentative…
Motivated by quantum mechanical considerations we earlier suggested an alternative action for discretised quantum gravity which has a dimension of length. It is the so called "linear" action. The proposed action is a "square root" of the…
A nonlinear scalar field theory from which an effective metric can be deduced is considered. This metric is shown to be compatible with requirements of general relativity. It is demonstrated that there is a class of solutions which fulfill…
We present a novel derivation of the spacetime metric generated by matter, without invoking Einstein's field equations. For static sources, the metric arises from a relativistic formulation of D'Alembert's principle, where the inertial…
We follow an old suggestion made by Stueckelberg that there exists an intimate connection between weak interaction and gravity, symbolized by the relationship between the Fermi and Newton\rq s constants. We analyze the hypothesis that the…
We consider the most general action for gravity which is quadratic in curvature. In this case first order and second order formalisms are not equivalent. This framework is a good candidate for a unitary and renormalizable theory of the…
We present a metric theory of gravity with Lagrangian L = (8\pi G)^{-1}(\Xi g^{ii} - \Upsilon g^{00})\sqrt{-g} + L_{GR} + L_{matter} motivated by classical equations \partial_t \rho + \partial_i (\rho v^i) = 0 \partial_t (\rho v^j) +…
We study a noncommutative theory of gravity in the framework of torsional spacetime. This theory is based on a Lagrangian obtained by applying the technique of dimensional reduction of noncommutative gauge theory and that the yielded…
We generalize and unify the $f(R,T)$ and $f(R,L_m)$ type gravity models by assuming that the gravitational Lagrangian is given by an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar $R$, of the trace of the energy-momentum tensor $T$, and of the…
We prove that a generalized Schwarzschild-like ansatz can be consistently employed to construct $d$-dimensional static vacuum black hole solutions in any metric theory of gravity for which the Lagrangian is a scalar invariant constructed…
A general paradigm for describing classical (and semiclassical) gravity is presented. This approach brings to the centre-stage a holographic relationship between the bulk and surface terms in a general class of action functionals and…
The magnetic moment of free fermions in the Earth's gravitational field has been studied on the basis of the general relativity. Adopting the Schwarzschild metric for the background spacetime, the dipole coupling between the magnetic moment…
General Relativity assumes that spacetime is fully described by the metric alone. An alternative is the so called Palatini formalism where the metric and the connections are taken as independent quantities. The metric-affine theory of…
The Covariant Canonical Gauge theory of Gravity is generalized by including at the Lagrangian level all possible quadratic curvature invariants. In this approach, the covariant Hamiltonian principle and the canonical transformation…
It is well known that, making the Abelian projection of Einstein's theory one can obtain the restricted gravity which is simpler than Einstein's theory but describes the core dynamics of Einstein's gravity. In this paper we present the…
In the framework of alternative metric gravity theories, it has been shown by several authors that a generic Lagrangian depending on the Riemann tensor describes a theory with 8 degrees of freedom (which reduce to 3 for f(R) Lagrangians…
We present a systematic exposition of the Lagrangian field theory for the massive spin-two field generated in higher-derivative gravity. It has been noticed by various authors that this nonlinear field overcomes the well known inconsistency…
A locally Lorentz-covariant theory of gravity that is equivalent to general relativity in weak gravitational field is suggested. The space-time standards in local gravitational field are modified in terms of equivalence principle to keep…
We consider the basic physical properties of matter forming a thin accretion disc in the static and spherically symmetric space-time metric of the vacuum $f(R)$ modified gravity models. The Lagrangian of the generalized gravity theory is…
