These Lecture notes give an introduction to Regge calculus as a discrete model of General Relativity.

Singularity theorems constitute a major milestone of relativity. They generated a panoply of fertile lines of research with dazzling physical consequences. (Los teoremas de singularidades constituyen uno de los mayores hitos de la…

We consider versions of the Penrose singularity theorem and the Hawking horizon topology theorem in weighted spacetimes that contain weighted versions of trapped surfaces, for arbitrary spacetime dimension and synthetic dimension. We find…

In this article, we shall describe some of the most interesting topics in the subject of Complexity Science for a general audience. Anyone with a solid foundation in high school mathematics (with some calculus) and an elementary…

A general bimetric theory of gravitation is described as a linear in the second approximation. This is allowed due to the small experimental significance of the higher order terms. Solar System tests are satisfied. The theory allows black…

In the standard cosmological theory one uses the Einstein concepts of space and time as were originally introduced for the special theory of relativity and the general relativity theory. According to this approach all physical quantities…

An attempt is made of giving a self-contained (although incomplete) introduction to holomorphic ideas in general relativity, following work over the last thirty years by several authors. The main topics are complex manifolds, two-component…

The central concept of the theory of relativity is the relativity of velocity. The velocity of a material body is not an intrinsic property of the body; it depends on a free choice of reference system. Relative velocity is thus…

In this addendum we clarify a point which strengthens one of the results from [the original paper]. Namely, we show that the algebra of the observables $F(r,\theta)$ is yet simpler then it was described in [the original paper]. This is an…

Cosmologies based on General Relativity encompassing an anti-symmetric connection (torsion) can display nice desirable features as the absence of the initial singularity and the possibility of inflation in the early stage of the universe.…

A monograph on the mathematical aspects of Special Relativity, focusing on the Lorentz group and the properties of relativistic transformations in mechanics and electrodynamics. Manuscript of published book, with added appendices.

In previous work, the author extended the Poincare Lie algebra to include a four position operator as a natural extension to a large fifteen parameter Lie algebra of operators. We here propose to generalize the metric contained in those…

The properties of the light, the Lorentz transformations and the relation mass-energy are introduced using the wave picture of the light and of the massive particles.

Assuming that the relativistic universe is homogeneous and isotropic, we can unambiguously determine its model and physical properties, which correspond with the Einstein general theory of relativity (and with its two special partial…

The `observer space' of a Lorentzian spacetime is the space of future-timelike unit tangent vectors. Using Cartan geometry, we first study the structure a given spacetime induces on its observer space, then use this to define abstract…

We show that a general solution of the Einstein equations that describes approach to an inhomogeneous and anisotropic sudden spacetime singularity does not experience geodesic incompleteness. This generalises the result established for…

In this lecture I build up the motivation for relativity and gravitation based on general principles and common sense considerations which should fall in the sphere of appreciation of a general reader. There is a novel way of looking at…

The present thesis represents developments in two main directions related to the simple Lie algebras. The first one is devoted to the representation theory of the simple Lie algebras. Specifically, we present recent results, which include…

I give a compact, pedagogical review of our present understanding of the universe as based on general relativity. This includes the uniform models, with special reference to the cosmological 'constant'; and the equations for…

In the present manuscript, I examine an intriguing relation at the classical level between general relativity and a theory where matter couples uniquely multiplicatively to geometry in the Lagrangian density. Interestingly, the…
