In this paper, we have investigated an anisotropic homogeneous plane symmetric cosmological micro-model in the presence of massless scalar field in modified theory of Einstein's general relativity. Some interesting physical and geometrical aspects of the model together with singularity in the model are discussed. Further, it is shown that this theory is valid and leads to Ein?stein's theory as the coupling parameter ? ?>? 0 in micro (i.e. quantum) level in general.

We discuss the stability of the classical bouncing solutions in the general Horndeski theory and beyond Horndeski theory. We restate the no-go theorem, showing that in the general Horndeski theory there are no spatially flat non-singular cosmological solutions which are stable during entire evolution. We show the way to evade the no-go in beyond Horndeski theory and give two specific examples of bouncing solutions, whose asymptotic past and future or both are described by General Relativity (GR) with a conventional massless scalar field. Both solutions are free of any pathologies at all times.

The new formal analogy between superfluid systems and cosmology, which emerges by taking into account the back-reaction of the vacuum to the quanta of sound waves,1 enables us to put forward some common features between these two different areas of physics. We find the condition that allows us to justify a General Relativity (GR) derivation of the hydrodynamical equation for the superfluid in a four-dimensional space whose metric is the Unruh one.2 Furthermore, we show how, in the particular case taken into account, our hydrodynamical equation can be deduced within a four-dimensional space from the wave equation of a massless scalar field.

Using the formal equivalences between Kaluza–Klein gravity, Brans–Dicke theory and general relativity coupled to a massless scalar field, exact solutions obtained in one theory will correspond to analogous solutions in the other two theories. Often exact solutions in one theory are "rediscovered" since theory are not recognized as analogs of the corresponding solutions in one of the other theories. We review here a number of exact solutions in each of the theories, with an emphasis on identifying and presenting the higher-dimensional version of the solutions. We also briefly comment upon the formal equivalence between Kaluza–Klein theory and scalar–tensor theories in general.

AbstractIt has recently been revealed that massless scalar fields which are non-minimally coupled to the Maxwell electromagnetic tensor can be supported in the exterior spacetime regions of spherically symmetric charged black holes. The boundary between scalarized charged black-hole spacetimes and bald (scalarless) Reissner–Nordström black holes is determined by the presence of a critical existence-line which describes spatially regular linearized scalar ‘clouds’ that are supported in the black-hole spacetime. In the present paper we use analytical techniques in order to solve the Klein–Gordon wave equation for the non-minimally coupled linearized scalar fields in the spacetimes of near-extremal supporting black holes. In particular, we derive a remarkably compact analytical formula for the discrete resonant spectrum $$\{\alpha (l,Q/M;n)\}^{n=\infty }_{n=1}$$ { α ( l , Q / M ; n ) } n = 1 n = ∞ which characterizes the dimensionless coupling parameter of the composed Reissner–Nordström-black-hole-nonminimally-coupled-massless-scalar-field configurations along the critical existence-line of the Einstein–Maxwell-scalar theory (here Q/M is the dimensionless charge-to-mass ratio of the central supporting black hole and l is the angular harmonic index of the supported scalar configurations).

In this paper we provide approximate analytical analysis of stability of nonsingular inflationary chaotic-type cosmological models. Initial conditions for nonsingular solutions at the bounce correspond to dominance of potential part of the energy density of the scalar field over its kinetic part both within general relativity and gauge theories of gravity. Moreover, scalar field at the bounce exceeds the Planckian value and on expansion stage these models correspond to chaotic inflation. Such solutions can be well approximated by explicitly solvable model with constant effective potential (cosmological term) and massless scalar field during the bounce and on stages of quasi-exponential contraction and expansion. Perturbative analysis shows that nonsingular inflationary solutions are exponentially unstable during contraction stage. This result is compared with numerical calculations.

Fundamental issues underlying gravitational physics and some of the shortcomings of Einstein’s general relativity (GR) are discussed. In particular, after taking into account the role of the two main objects of relativistic theories of gravity, i.e. the metric and the connection fields, we consider the possibility that they are not trivially related so that the geodesic structure and the causal structure of the spacetime could be disentangled, as supposed in the Palatini formulation of gravity. In this perspective, the equivalence principle (EP), in its weak and strong formulations, can play a fundamental role in discriminating among competing theories. The possibility of its violation at quantum level could open new perspectives in gravitational physics and in unification with other interactions. We shortly debate the possibility of EP measurements by ground-based and space experiments.
