We define a physically reasonable mass for an asymptotically Robertson-Walker (ARW) manifold which is uniquely defined in the case of a normalized representation.

On $(epsilon)$ - Lorentzian para-Sasakian Manifolds
The object of this paper is to study $(epsilon)$-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds. Some typical identities for the curvature tensor and the Ricci tensor of $(epsilon)$-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold are investigated. Further, we study globally $phi$-Ricci symmetric and weakly $phi$-Ricci symmetric $(epsilon)$-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds and obtain interesting results.
متن کاملA meshless discrete Galerkin method for solving the universe evolution differential equations based on the moving least squares approximation
In terms of observational data, there are some problems in the standard Big Bang cosmological model. Inflation era, early accelerated phase of the evolution of the universe, can successfully solve these problems. The inflation epoch can be explained by scalar inflaton field. The evolution of this field is presented by a non-linear differential equation. This equation is considered in FLRW model...
متن کاملOn causality and closed geodesics of compact Lorentzian manifolds and static spacetimes
Some results related to the causality of compact Lorentzian manifolds are proven: (1) any compact Lorentzian manifold which admits a timelike conformal vector field is totally vicious, and (2) a compact Lorentzian manifold covered regularly by a globally hyperbolic spacetime admits a timelike closed geodesic, if some natural topological assumptions (fulfilled, for example, if one of the conjuga...
متن کاملTrajectories under a Vectorial Potential on Stationary Manifolds
By using variational methods, we study the existence and multiplicity of trajec-tories under a vectorial potential on (standard) stationary Lorentzian manifolds possibly with boundary. 1. Introduction and statement of the results. The pair (ᏸ,g) is called Lorentzian manifold if ᏸ is a connected finite-dimensional smooth manifold with dim ᏸ ≥ 2 and g is a Lorentzian metric on ᏸ, that is, g is a ...
متن کاملPeriodic trajectories on stationary Lorentzian manifolds
In this paper we present an existence and multiplicity result for periodic trajectories on stationary Lorentzian manifolds, possibly with boundary, whose proof is based on a Morse theory approach, see [5]. We recall that a Lorentzian manifold is a smooth connected nite-dimensional manifold M equipped with a (0; 2) tensor eld g such that for any z ∈ M g(z) [·; ·] is a nondegenerate symmetric bil...
