Instabilities of Black Strings and Branes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We review recent progress on the instabilities of black strings and branes both for pure Einstein gravity as well as supergravity theories which are relevant for string theory. We focus mainly on Gregory-Laflamme instabilities.

Non-relativistic geometry of holographic screens

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
We propose that the intrinsic geometry of holographic screens should be described by the Newton-Cartan geometry. As a test of this proposal, we show that the evolution equations of the screen can be written in a covariant form in terms of a stress tensor,

Classical and Quantum Aspects of Infinite Derivative Field Theories and Infinite Derivative Gravity

open access: green, 2017
The objective of this thesis is to study classical and quantum aspects of infinite derivative field theories and infinite derivative gravity. In- finite derivative theories of gravity can be made free from ghosts and classical singularities. In order to avoid ghosts, one modifies the graviton propagator by employing entire functions so that no new ...

Topological M-theory as unification of form theories of gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We introduce a notion of topological M-theory and argue that it provides a unification of form theories of gravity in various dimensions. Its classical solutions involve G_2 holonomy metrics on 7-manifolds, obtained from a topological action for a 3-form

Wave propagation in 2D between two elastic media in contact in theory of generalized two-temperature thermoelasticity with gravity effect

open access: yesArchives of Thermodynamics, 2023
The theory of generalized two-temperature thermoelasticity is used to solve the boundary value problems between two elastic media with two different types of temprature under the influence of gravity.The classical dynamical coupled theory and Lord ...

Small free field inflation in higher curvature gravity

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
Within General Relativity, a minimally coupled scalar field governed by a quadratic potential is able to produce an accelerated expansion of the universe provided its value and excursion are larger than the Planck scale.

Viability of vector-tensor theories of gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We present a detailed study of the viability of general vector-tensor theories of gravity in the presence of an arbitrary temporal background vector field.

Black Holes, Entropy Bound and Causality Violation

open access: yes, 2009
The gravity/gauge theory duality has provided us a way of studying QCD at short distances from straightforward calculations in classical general relativity. Among numerous results obtained so far, one of the most striking is the universality of the ratio

Exploring Dipolar Dynamics and Ionic Transport in Metal‐Organic Frameworks: Experimental and Theoretical Insights

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, the interplay of dipolar dynamics and ionic charge transport in MOF compounds is investigated. Synthesizing the novel structure CFA‐25 with integrated freely rotating dipolar groups, local and macroscopic effects, including interactions with Cs cations are explored.

An étude on global vacuum energy sequester

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
Recently two of the authors proposed a mechanism of vacuum energy sequester as a means of protecting the observable cosmological constant from quantum radiative corrections.
