A deSitter gauge theory of gravitation over a spherical symmetric Minkowski space–time is developed. The "passive" point of view is adapted, i.e., the space–time coordinates are not affected by group transformations; only the fields change under the action of the symmetry group. A particular ansatz for the gauge fields is chosen and the components of the strength tensor are computed. An analytical solution of Schwarzschild–deSitter type is obtained in the case of null torsion. It is concluded that the deSitter group can be considered as a "passive" gauge symmetry for gravitation. Because of their complexity, all the calculations, inclusive of the integration of the field equations, are performed using an analytical program conceived in GRTensorII for MapleV. The program allows one to compute (without using a metric) the strength tensor [Formula: see text], Riemann tensor [Formula: see text], Ricci tensor [Formula: see text], curvature scalar [Formula: see text], field equations, and the integration of these equations.

Theory Of Gravitation

A de-Sitter gauge theory of the gravitational field is developed using a spherical symmetric Minkowski space–time as base manifold. The gravitational field is described by gauge potentials and the mathematical structure of the underlying space–time is not affected by physical events. The field equations are written and their solutions without singularities are obtained by imposing some constraints on the invariants of the model. An example of such a solution is given and its dependence on the cosmological constant is studied. A comparison with results obtained in General Relativity theory is also presented.

Abstract The purpose of this paper is to get second-order gravitational equations, a correction made to Jefimenko’s linear gravitational equations. These linear equations were first proposed by Oliver Heaviside in [1], making an analogy between the laws of electromagnetism and gravitation. To achieve our goal, we will use perturbation methods on Einstein field equations. It should be emphasized that the resulting system of equations can also be derived from Logunov’s non-linear gravitational equations, but with different physical interpretation, for while in the former gravitation is considered as a deformation of space-time as we can see in [2–5], in the latter gravitation is considered as a physical tensor field in the Minkowski space-time (as in [6–8]). In Jefimenko’s theory of gravitation, exposed in [9, 10], there are two kinds of gravitational fields, the ordinary gravitational field, due to the presence of masses, at rest, or in motion and other field called Heaviside field due to and acts only on moving masses. The Heaviside field is known in general relativity as Lense-Thirring effect or gravitomagnetism (The Heaviside field is the gravitational analogous of the magnetic field in the electromagnetic theory, its existence was proved employing the Gravity Probe B launched by NASA (See, for example, [11, 12]). It is a type of gravitational induction), interpreted as a distortion of space-time due to the motion of mass distributions, (see, for example [13, 14]). Here, we will present our second-order Jefimenko equations for gravitation and its solutions.

A model of SU(2) gauge theory is constructed in terms of local gauge-invariant variables defined over a four-dimensional space–time endowed with axial symmetry. A metric tensor gμν is defined starting with the components [Formula: see text] of the strength tensor and its dual [Formula: see text]. The components gμν are interpreted as new local gauge-invariant variables. Imposing the condition that the new metric coincides with the initial metric we obtain the field equations for the considered ansatz. We obtain the same field equations using the condition of self-duality. It is concluded that the self-dual variables are compatible with the axial symmetry of the space–time. A family of analytical solutions of the gauge field equations is also obtained. The solutions have the confining properties. All the calculations are performed using the GRTensorII computer algebra package, running on the MapleV platform.

Generally True

A model of Poincaré gauge self-dual theory over the Minkowski space–time, endowed with spherical symmetry, is considered. The self-duality (S-D) conditions are imposed and two sets of the self-duality equations for the gauge fields are obtained: one for the torsion tensor and another for the curvature tensor. An analytical solution of the gauge field equations is also obtained. The Yang–Mills (Y–M) equations of the gauge fields are also derived. It is shown that these Y–M equations can be obtained from the S-D equations, a result which is generally true for any S-D gauge theory. Most of all calculations are performed using the GRTensorII package, running on the MapleV platform.

Using the Clifford bundle formalism, a Lagrangian theory of the Yang–Mills type (with a gauge fixing term and an auto interacting term) for the gravitational field in Minkowski space–time is presented. It is shown how two simple hypotheses permit the interpretation of the formalism in terms of effective Lorentzian or teleparallel geometries. In the case of a Lorentzian geometry interpretation of the theory, the field equations are shown to be equivalent to Einstein's equations.

Structure Of Matter

The unity of the structure of matter fields with flavor symmetry laws involves that the left-handed neutrino in the field of emission can be converted into a right-handed one and vice versa. These transitions together with classical solutions of the Dirac equation testify in favor of the unidenticality of masses, energies, and momenta of neutrinos of the different components. If we recognize such a difference in masses, energies, and momenta, accepting its ideas about that the left-handed neutrino and the right-handed antineutrino refer to long-lived leptons, and the right-handed neutrino and the left-handed antineutrino are short-lived fermions, we would follow the mathematical logic of the Dirac equation in the presence of the flavor symmetrical mass, energy, and momentum matrices. From their point of view, nature itself separates Minkowski space into left and right spaces concerning a certain middle dynamical line. Thereby, it characterizes any Dirac particle both by left and by right space–time coordinates. It is not excluded therefore that whatever the main purposes each of earlier experiments about sterile neutrinos, namely, about right-handed short-lived neutrinos may serve as the source of facts confirming the existence of a mirror Minkowski space–time.

The World

The construction of field theory which exhibits invariance under the Weyl group with parameters dependent on space–time is discussed. The method is that used by Utiyama for the Lorentz group and by Kibble for the Poincaré group. The need to construct world-covariant derivatives necessitates the introduction of three sets of gauge fields which provide a local affine connexion and a vierbein system. The geometrical implications are explored; the world geometry has an affine connexion which is not symmetric but is semi-metric. A possible choice of Lagrangian for the gauge fields is presented, and the resulting field equations and conservation laws discussed.

Geometric Picture

Classical gravity can be described as a relational dynamical system without ever appealing to space–time or its geometry. This description is the so-called shape dynamics description of gravity. The existence of relational first principles from which the shape dynamics description of gravity can be derived is a motivation to consider shape dynamics (rather than general relativity) as the fundamental description of gravity. Adopting this point of view leads to the question: What is the role of space–time in the shape dynamics description of gravity? This question contains many aspects: Compatibility of shape dynamics with the description of gravity in terms of space–time geometry, the role of local Minkowski space, universality of space–time geometry and the nature of quantum particles, which can no longer be assumed to be irreducible representations of the Poincaré group. In this contribution I derive effective space–time structures by considering how matter fluctuations evolve along with shape dynamics. This evolution reveals an “experienced space–time geometry.” This leads (in an idealized approximation) to local Minkowski space and causal relations. The small-scale structure of the emergent geometric picture depends on the specific probes used to experience space–time, which limits the applicability of effective space–time to describe shape dynamics. I conclude with discussing the nature of quantum fluctuations (particles) in shape dynamics and how local Minkowski space–time emerges from the evolution of quantum particles.

We present a gravitational collapse null dust solution of the Einstein field equations. The space-time is regular everywhere except on the symmetry axis where it possesses a naked curvature singularity and admits one parameter isometry group, a generator of axial symmetry along the cylinder which has closed orbits. The space-time admits closed timelike curves (CTCs) which develop at some particular moment in a causally well-behaved manner and may represent a Cosmic Time Machine. The radial geodesics near the singularity and the gravitational lensing (GL) will be discussed. The physical interpretation of this solution, based on the study of the equation of the geodesic deviation, will be presented. It was demonstrated that this solution depends on the local gravitational field consisting of two components with amplitudes Ψ2 and Ψ4.

The Big Bang

The generalized Szekeres family of solution for quasi-spherical space–time of higher dimensions are obtained in the scalar tensor theory of gravitation. Brans–Dicke field equations expressed in Dicke's revised units are exhaustively solved for all the subfamilies of the said family. A particular group of solutions may also be interpreted as due to the presence of the so-called C-field of Hoyle and Narlikar and for a chosen sign of the coupling parameter. The models show either expansion from a big bang type of singularity or a collapse with the turning point at a lower bound. There is one particular case which starts from the big bang, reaches a maximum and collapses with the in course of time to a crunch.
