Cosmological Constant and Renormalization of Gravity
Galaxies, 2018 In arXiv:1601.02203 and arXiv:1702.07063, we have proposed a topological model with a simple Lagrangian density and have tried to solve one of the cosmological constant problems.

Testing the Standard Cosmological Model [PDF]
, 2011 This thesis exploits the wealth of information contained in the existing cosmological surveys, and demonstrates how the use of tools such as two-point statistics permit the extraction of such information.

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.In recent decades, solid waste has proliferated worldwide, becoming a pressing global issue. This article explores the role of Indigenous people dwelling within and upon emerging waste scenarios, with a specific focus on involved forms of sociality and ontological contestation. Drawing on the case of a municipal landfill sited on a Guarani community in

Multi-charged geometries with cosmological constant
Journal of High Energy PhysicsMotivated by gauged supergravities, we consider gravitational systems coupled to arbitrary numbers of fluxes and scalar fields. We show that simple ansatze for asymptotically AdS solutions in these systems fully determine the potential for the scalars ...

Effective cosmological constant induced by stochastic fluctuations of Newton's constant
Physics Letters B, 2016 We consider implications of the microscopic dynamics of spacetime for the evolution of cosmological models. We argue that quantum geometry effects may lead to stochastic fluctuations of the gravitational constant, which is thus considered as a ...

Exact rotating black hole solutions for f(R) gravity by modified Newman Janis algorithm
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023 We show that the f(R)-gravity theories with constant Ricci scalar in the Jordan/Einstein frame can be described by Einstein or Einstein–Maxwell gravity with a cosmological term and a modified gravitational constant.

GHOSTLY ENCOUNTERS IN LAGOS: Virtual Reality between Urban Marketing and Media Activism
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract This article examines the role of virtual reality (VR) technologies in mediating and contesting dominant visions of urban futures in West Africa. Drawing on theoretical insights from a hybridization of the work of the German‐born Jewish critic Walter Benjamin and the Nigerian writer Amos Tutuola, I introduce the concept of phantasmagoria as a ...

The cosmological constant on the non-cosmological scales [PDF]
, 2021 The cosmological constant Λ was first added to the gravitational field equations in 1917 by Albert Einstein. Einstein preferred the static universe, whereas field equations without the cosmological constant did not allow for such a scenario.

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract This article investigates the symbolic politics of state‐led gentrification and heritagization, focusing on how these processes serve to ‘glorify’ state power. Drawing on Agamben's political theology, Bourdieu's notion of symbolic power and space, and political heritage studies, we argue that the symbolic politics of state glorification can ...
