Paralleling the formal derivation of general relativity as a flat spacetime theory, we introduce in addition a preferred temporal foliation. The physical interpretation of the formalism is considered in the context of 5-dimensional…
Nonlinear partial differential equations appear in many domains of physics, and we study here a typical equation which one finds in effective field theories (EFT) originated from cosmological studies. In particular, we are interested in the…
Urban form and growth can be described with fractal dimension, which is a measurement of space filling of urban evolution. Based on empirical analyses, a discovery is made that the time series of fractal dimension of urban form can be…
Recently we put forward a framework where the dark matter (DM) component within virialized halos is subject to a non-local interaction originated by fractional gravity (FG) effects. In previous works we demonstrated that such a framework…
We propose a formulation of gravity theory in the form of a field theory in a flat space-time with a number of dimensions greater than four. Configurations of the field under consideration describe the splitting of this space-time into a…
We review recent theoretical progress and observational constraints on multifractional spacetimes, geometries that change with the probed scale. On the theoretical side, the basic structure of the Standard Model and of the gravitational…
In an ever-expanding spatially closed universe, the fractional change of the volume is the preeminent intrinsic time interval to describe evolution in General Relativity. The expansion of the universe serves as a subsidiary condition which…
We introduce a generalization of Higuchi's estimator of the fractal dimension as a new way to characterize the multifractal spectrum of univariate time series. The resulting multifractal Higuchi dimension analysis (MF-HDA) method considers…
We consider a self-similar phase space with specific fractal dimension $d$ being distributed with spectrum function $f(d)$. Related thermostatistics is shown to be governed by the Tsallis formalism of the non-extensive statistics, where the…
Understanding irreversibility in macrophysics from reversible microphysics has been the holy grail in statistical physics ever since the mid-19th century. Here the central question concerns the arrow of time, which boils down to deriving…
Dimensional reduction of generalized gravity theories or string theories generically yields dilaton fields in the lower-dimensional effective theory. Thus at the level of D=4 theories, and cosmology many models contain more than just one…
Historically the fractional calculus concept works an extended idea based on the question asked by Guillaume de L'H\^opital to Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz in 1695 about the notation ${d^nf}/{dx^n}$ for the derivative operator "What if…
A \emph{fractal} is an object exhibiting complexity at arbitrarily small scales. In order to study and characterise fractals, one is often interested in quantifying how they fill up space on small scales. This gives rise to various notions…
The fractal or Hausdorff dimension is a measure of roughness (or smoothness) for time series and spatial data. The graph of a smooth, differentiable surface indexed in $\mathbb{R}^d$ has topological and fractal dimension $d$. If the surface…
It has recently been shown that $f(T)$ gravity has $\frac{n(n-3)}{2}+1$ physical degrees of freedom (d.o.f.) in $n$ dimensions, contrary to previous claims. The simplest physical interpretation of this fact is that the theory possesses a…
Flatly Foliated Relativity (FFR) is a new theory which conceptually lies between Special Relativity (SR) and General Relativity (GR), in which spacetime is foliated by flat Euclidean spaces. While GR is based on the idea that "matter curves…
We have shown in the paper that for time with fractional dimensions (multifractal time theory) there are small domain of velocities $v$ near $v=c$ where SR must be replaced by fractal theory of almost inertial system that do not contains an…
We consider the fractional generalizations of the phase volume, volume element and Poisson brackets. These generalizations lead us to the fractional analog of the phase space. We consider systems on this fractional phase space and…
In an extension of speculations that physical space-time is a fractal which might itself be embedded in a high-dimensional continuum, it is hypothesized to "compensate" for local variations of the fractal dimension by instead varying the…
We consider the fractal characteristic of the quantum mechanical paths and we obtain for any universal class of fractons labeled by the Hausdorff dimension defined within the interval 1$ $$ < $$ $$h$$ $$ <$$ $$ 2$, a fractal distribution…
