Scale Transformations in Metric-Affine Geometry
This article presents an exhaustive classification of metric-affine theories according to their scale symmetries. First it is clarified that there are three relevant definitions of a scale transformation.

On parity-odd sector in metric-affine theories
We undertake the construction of quadratic parity-violating terms involving the curvature in the four-dimensional metric-affine gravity. We demonstrate that there are only 12 linearly independent scalars, plus an additional one that can be removed by ...

Teleparallel Robertson-Walker Geometries and Applications
In teleparallel geometries, the coframe and corresponding spin connection are the principal geometric objects and, consequently, the appropriate definition of a symmetry is that of an affine symmetry. The set of invariant coframes and their corresponding

We study the completeness of light trajectories in certain spherically symmetric regular geometries found in Palatini theories of gravity threaded by non-linear (electromagnetic) fields, which makes their propagation to happen along geodesics of an ...

An Algorithm for constructing Hjelmslev planes [PDF]
Projective Hjelmslev planes and Affine Hjelmselv planes are generalisations of projective planes and affine planes. We present an algorithm for constructing a projective Hjelmslev planes and affine Hjelsmelv planes using projective planes, affine planes ...

Gravity can be formulated as a gauge theory by combining symmetry principles and geometrical methods in a consistent mathematical framework. The gauge approach to gravity leads directly to non-Euclidean, post-Riemannian spacetime geometries, providing ...

Kinds of Pregeometries of Cubic Theories
The description of the types of geometries is one of the main problems in the structural classification of algebraic systems. In addition to the well-known classical geometries, a deep study of the main types of pregeometries and geometries was carried ...

Homogeneous and isotropic cosmology in general teleparallel gravity
We derive the most general homogeneous and isotropic teleparallel geometries, defined by a metric and a flat, affine connection. We find that there are five branches of connection solutions, which are connected via several limits, and can further be ...

On the structure of the directions not determined by a large affine point set [PDF]
Given a point set $U$ in an $n$-dimensional affine space of size $q^{n-1}-\varepsilon$, we obtain information on the structure of the set of directions that are not determined by $U$, and we describe an application in the theory of partial ovoids of ...

A domain decomposition technique combined with an enhanced geometry mapping based on the use of NURBS is considered for solving parametrized models in complex geometries (non simply connected) within the so-called proper generalized decomposition (PGD ...
