چکیده

In general relativity, quasi-local energy-momentum expressions have been constructed from various formulae. However, Newtonian theory of gravity gives a well known and an unique quasi-local mass expression (surface integration). Since geometrical formulation of Newtonian gravity has been established in the covariant Newtonian space-time, it provides a covariant approximation from relativistic to Newtonian theories. By using this approximation, we calculate Komar integral, Brown-York quasi-local energy and Dougan-Mason quasi-local mass in the covariant Newtonian space-time. It turns out that Komar integral naturally gives the Newtonian quasi-local mass expression, however, further conditions (spherical symmetry) need to be made for Brown-York and Dougan-Mason expressions.

A local classification of spacelike surfaces in Minkowski 4-space, which are invariant under spacelike rotations, and with mean curvature vector either vanishing or lightlike, is obtained. Furthermore, the existence of such surfaces with prescribed Gaussian curvature is shown. A procedure is presented to glue several of these surfaces with intermediate parts where the mean curvature vector fiel...

We give a careful general relativistic and (1+3)-covariant analysis of cosmological peculiar velocities induced by matter density perturbations in the presence of a cosmological constant. In our quasi-Newtonian approach, constraint equations arise to maintain zero shear of the non-comoving fundamental worldlines which define a Newtonian-like frame, and these lead to the (1+3)-covariant dynamica...

We discuss Q-balls in the complex signum-Gordon model in d-dimensional space for d = 1, 2, 3. The Q-balls have strictly finite size. Their total energy is a power-like function of the conserved U (1) charge with the exponent equal to (d + 2)(d + 3) −1. In the cases d = 1 and d = 3 explicit analytic solutions are presented.

In this article we describe applications of the numerical method of discrete differential forms in computational GR. In particular we consider the initial value problem for vacuum space-times that admit plane gravitational waves. As described in an earlier paper the discrete differential form approach can provide accurate results in spherically symmetric space-times [28]. Moreover it is manifes...
