The scheme outlined earlier is continued here to investigate the structure of Dirac spinors in the background of a gravitational field within the context of cosmological Robertson-Walker metric where the treatment is based on general considerations of spatially curved (non-flat) hypersurfaces embracing open as well as closed versions of the Universe. A Gordon decomposition of the generalized Dirac current is then carried out in terms of the polarization and the magnetization densities. We also take a look at the Klein-Gordon equation in the curved space formalism.

AbstractIn this paper we study existence and orbital stability for solitary waves of the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation. The energy of these solutions travels as a localized packet, hence they are a particular type of solitons. In particular we are interested in sufficient conditions on the potential for the existence of solitons. Our proof is based on the study of the ratio energy/charge of a function, which turns out to be a useful approach for many field equations.

Generalized field equations of linear gravity are formulated on the basis of octons. When compared to the other eight-component noncommutative hypercomplex number systems, it is demonstrated that associative octons with scalar, pseudoscalar, pseudovector and vector values present a convenient and capable tool to describe the Maxwell–Proca-like field equations of gravitoelectromagnetism in a compact and simple way. Introducing massive graviton and gravitomagnetic monopole terms, the generalized gravitational wave equation and Klein–Gordon equation for linear gravity are also developed.

It is well known that many of the field equations from theoretical physics (e.g. Einstein field equations, Maxwell's equations, Klein-Gordon equation) can be obtained from a variational principle with a suitably chosen Lagrange density. In the case of the Einstein equations the corresponding Lagrangian is degenerate (i.e., the associated Euler-Lagrange equations are of second order whereas in general these would be of fourth order), while in the cases of the Maxwell and Klein-Gordon equations the Lagrangian usually used is not degenerate.

The basic conception of this paper is the assumption, that all quantities characterizing the metric are functionals of one field (worldfield). For the sake of mathematical simplicity a scalar field Φ is considered. The investigations are based on the following system of field equations:Rmn - ½ gmn R=½ gmn [gabΦ, aΦ, b + F(Φ)]-Φ,mΦ, n;F is a functional of Φ. According to the basic conception only such solutions for the gmn are permitted, which for Φ ≡ 0 give the corresponding values of a euclidean metric. Due to the BIANCHI-identities it follows as a consequence of the field equations, that Φ satisfies a nonlinear KLEIN-GORDON-equation :gabΦ;ab-½(dF/dΦ) =0 .The conditions for a nonsingular, static and centralsymmetrical solution are investigated. With regard to cosmological problems the equations for a conformal-flat, timedependent metric are discussed.

It is shown that the equations of relativistic Bohmian mechanics for multiple bosonic particles have a dual description in terms of a classical theory of conformally "curved" space-time. This shows that it is possible to formulate quantum mechanics as a purely classical geometrical theory. The results are further generalized to interactions with an external electromagnetic field.

The Klein–Gordon equation for a massless scalar field is considered for an extended matter source in 2 + 1 dimensions. It is shown how a solution can be found using Whittaker functions and can be normalized in the standard manner. In the point source limit, the solution reduces to the usual expression in terms of Bessel functions.
