There exists a widely known conjecture that gravitational effects violate global symmetries. We study the effect of global-symmetry violating higher-dimension operators induced by Planck-scale physics on the properties of WIMP dark matter.…
We study the physical consequences of two diffferent but closely related perturbation schemes applied to the Einstein-Maxwell equations. In one case the starting space-time is flat while in the other case it is Schwarzschild. In both cases…
We analyze the propagation of a scalar field in multidimensional theories which include kinetic corrections in the brane, as a prototype for gravitational interactions in a four dimensional brane located in a (nearly) flat extra dimensional…
Modifications of General Relativity generically contain additional degrees of freedom that can mediate forces between matter particles. One of the common manifestations of a fifth force in alternative gravity theories is a difference…
The paper summarizes the background of Expensive Nondecelerative Universe model and its main consequences for gravitation. Applying the Vaidya metrics, the model allows for the localization and determination of the density and quantity of…
We show that a new force, which appeared in a five-dimensional generalization of general relativity, implies precisely the flat circular velocity curves of luminous matter observed in the outer parts of spiral galaxies. A cosmological…
Continued gravitational collapse gives rise to curvature singularities. If a curvature singularity is globally naked then the space-time may be causally future ill-behaved admitting closed time-like or null curves which extend to asymptotic…
Cosmological gravitational particle production (CGPP) is the creation of particles in an expanding universe due solely to their gravitational interaction. These particles can play an important role in the cosmic history through their…
Inflationary cosmology predicts a low-amplitude graviton background across a wide range of frequencies. This Letter shows that if one or more extra dimensions exist, the graviton background may have a thermal spectrum instead, dependent on…
We derive formulae for the time variation of the gravitational ``constant'' and of the fine structure ``constant'' in various models with extra dimensions and analyze their consistency with the observational data.
The idea that dark energy is gravitational waves may explain its strength and its time-evolution provided that the additional energy comes from a background. A possible concept is that dark energy is the ensemble of coherent bursts…
We give a prescription to add the gravitational field of a global topological defect to a solution of Einstein's equations in an arbitrary number of dimensions. We only demand that the original solution has a O(n) invariance with n greater…
It has been hypothesized that dark matter is comprised of ultra-light bosons whose collective phenomena can be described as a scalar field undergoing coherent oscillations. Examples include axion and fuzzy dark matter models. In this…
In this manuscript a different perspective on gravitational field has been proposed, suggesting different features of gravity depending on spacetime dimension, which can explain preventing the formation of singularity inside blackholes and…
It is assumed that the quantum vacuum may be studied as consisting of two contributions, with positive and negative energy respectively, which interact but slightly and may be displaced from each other. Then it is proposed that dark matter…
Could cosmic topology imply dark energy? We use a weak field (Newtonian) approximation of gravity and consider the gravitational effect from distant, multiple copies of a large, collapsed (virialised) object today (i.e. a massive galaxy…
There is sufficient amount of internal evidence in the nature of gravitational theories to indicate that gravity is an emergent phenomenon like, e.g, elasticity. Such an emergent nature is most apparent in the structure of gravitational…
The metric perturbation tensor corresponding to a transverse oscillation of spacetime is composed of products of cosines. When averaged over many wavelengths, such a metric may look either Minkowskian or Euclidean at large scales, depending…
The linearized Einstein theory in the approximately flat time-space is modified accounting for a massive graviton as a dark matter in the universe. On the basis of magnetic-type Maxwell- Proca -Vlasov equations, the interactions of the…
Considering a five-dimensional (5D) Riemannian spacetime with a particular stationary Ricci-flat metric, we obtain in the framework of the induced matter theory an effective 4D static and spherically symmetric metric which give us ordinary…
