Palatini Formalism

We derive a new set of field equations within the framework of the Palatini formalism. These equations are a natural generalization of the Einstein–Maxwell equations which arise by adding a function [Formula: see text], with [Formula: see text] to the Palatini Lagrangian f(R, Q). The result we obtain can be viewed as the coupling of gravity with a nonlinear extension of the electromagnetic field. In addition, a new method is introduced to solve the algebraic equation associated to the Ricci tensor.

Abstract This article is based upon the idea to solve the problem of combining the electromagnetic and the gravitational field by starting from Maxwell's theory. It is shown that the theory of the Maxwell field can be generalized in such a way that Einstein's theory of gravitation becomes a special case of it. Finally we find field equations which refer only to geometric quantities.

Abstract In this paper, generalized polytropic equation of state is used to get new classes of polytropic models from the solution of Einstein-Maxwell field equations for charged anisotropic fluid configuration. The models are developed for different values of polytropic index $$n=1,~\frac{1}{2},~2$$n=1,12,2. Masses and radii of eight different stars have been regained with the help of developed models. The speed of sound technique and graphical analysis of model parameters is used for the viability of developed models. The analysis of models indicates they are well behaved and physically viable.

The Euler-Lagrange equations corresponding to a Lagrange density which is a function of the metric tensor g ij and its first two derivatives together with the first derivative of a vector field ψ i are investigated. In general, the Euler-Lagrange equations obtained by variation of g ij are of fourth order in g ij and third order in ψ i . It is shown that in a four dimensional space the only Euler-Lagrange equations which are of second order in g ij and first order in ψ i are the Einstein field equations (with an energy-momentum term). Various conditions are obtained under which the Einstein-Maxwell field equations are then an inevitable consequence.
