A relation between the MacDowell-Mansouri theory of gravity and the Pontrjagin toplogical invariant in (3 + 1) dimensions is discussed. This relation may be of especial interest in the quest of finding a mechanism to go from non-dynamical to dynamical gravity.

In this paper, a semi-simple and Maxwell extension of the (anti) de Sitter algebra is constructed. Then, gauge-invariant model has been presented by gauging algebra. We firstly construct Stelle–West-like action for five-dimensional spacetime in which effects spontaneous symmetry breaking have taken into account. doing so, we get an extended version Einstein’s field equations. Next, decompose Li...

We present a modified version of the infeasible-interiorpoint algorithm for monotone linear complementary problems introduced by Mansouri et al. (Nonlinear Anal. Real World Appl. 12(2011) 545–561). Each main step of the algorithm consists of a feasibility step and several centering steps. We use a different feasibility step, which targets at the μ-center. It results a better iteration bound.
