Doubly Warped Product Finsler Manifolds with Some Non-Riemannian Curvature Properties [PDF]
In this paper, we consider doubly warped product (DWP) Finsler manifolds with some non-Riemannian curvature properties. First, we study Berwald and isotropic mean Berwald DWP-Finsler manifolds. Then we prove that every proper Douglas DWP-Finsler manifold is Riemannian. We show that a proper DWP-manifold is Landsbergian if and only it is Berwaldian.

We study the perturbative unitarity of scattering amplitudes in general dimensional reductions of Yang-Mills theories and general relativity on closed internal manifolds.

Methods of holonomy theory for Ricci-flat Riemannian manifolds [PDF]
Compact, Ricci-flat Riemannian manifolds often arise in physical applications, either as a technical device or as models of ‘‘internal’’ space. The idea of extending the holonomy group of such a manifold to a larger gauge group (‘‘embedding the connection in the gauge group’’) plays a fundamental role in the ‘‘manifold compactification’’ approach to ...

We consider a multidimensional Kaluza-Klein (KK) model with a Ricci-flat internal space, for example, a Calabi-Yau manifold. We perturb this background metrics by a system of gravitating masses, for example, astrophysical objects such as our Sun.

Complete Ricci-flat K�hler manifolds of infinite topological type
We display an infinite dimensional family of complete Ricci-flat Kahler manifolds of complex dimension 2, for which the second homology is infinitely generated. These are obtained from the Gibbons-Hawking Ansatz [2] by using infinitely many, sparsely distributed centers.

On the relation between Schwarzschild's and Kerr's manifolds [PDF]
Kerr's manifold is only a Schwarzschild's manifold as seen by a suitably rotating coordinate system. By taking into account this fact, Kerr's manifold can be reduced to a Schwarzschild's manifold. In a final summary we give the main steps of our reasoning.

The quantum non-linear σ-model RG flow and integrability in wormhole geometries
The target space of the non-linear σ-model is a Riemannian manifold. Although it can be any Riemannian metric, there are certain physically interesting geometries which are worth to study.

A Liouvile-type theorems for some classes of complete Riemannian almost product manifolds and for special mappings of complete Riemannian manifolds [PDF]
In the present paper we prove Liouville-type theorems: non-existence theorems for some complete Riemannian almost product manifolds and special mappings of complete Riemannian manifolds which generalize similar results for compact manifolds.

On M-theory fourfold vacua with higher curvature terms
We study solutions to the eleven-dimensional supergravity action, including terms quartic and cubic in the Riemann curvature, that admit an eight-dimensional compact space.
