AbstractThe objective of this article is to investigate the effects of electromagnetic field on the generalization of Lemaître–Tolman–Bondi (LTB) spacetime by keeping in view the Palatini f(R) gravity and dissipative dust fluid. For performing this analysis, we followed the strategy deployed by Herrera et al. (Phys Rev D 82(2):024021, 2010). We have explored the modified field equations along with kinematical quantities and mass function and constructed the evolution equations to study the dynamics of inhomogeneous universe along with Raychauduary and Ellis equations. We have developed the relation for Palatini f(R) scalar functions by splitting the Riemann curvature tensor orthogonally and associated them with metric coefficients using modified field equations. We have formulated these scalar functions for LTB and its generalized version, i.e., GLTB under the influence of charge. The properties of GLTB spacetime are consistent with those of the LTB geometry and the scalar functions found in both cases are comparable in the presence of charge and Palatini f(R) curvature terms. The symmetric properties of generalized LTB spacetime are also studied using streaming out and diffusion approximations.

Abstract We construct Komar-type integrals for theories of gravity of higher order in the Riemann curvature coupled to simple kinds of matter (scalar and vector fields) and we use them to compute Smarr formulae for black-hole solutions in those theories. The equivalence between f (R) and Brans-Dicke theories is used to argue that the dimensionful parameters that appear in scalar potentials must be interpreted as thermodynamical variables (pressures) and we give a general expression for their conjugate potentials (volumes).

In this paper, we discuss inverse problem in spray geometry. We find infinitely many sprays with non-diagonalizable Riemann curvature on a Lie group, these sprays are not induced by Finsler metrics. We also study left invariant sprays with non-vanishing spray vectors on Lie groups. We prove that if such a spray [Formula: see text] on a Lie group [Formula: see text] satisfies that [Formula: see text] is commutative or [Formula: see text] is projective, then [Formula: see text] is not induced by any (not necessary positive definite) left invariant Finsler metric. Finally, we construct an abundance of the left invariant sprays on Lie groups which satisfy the conditions in above result.

Abstract In this letter, we investigate the basic property of the Hilbert-Einstein action principle and its infinitesimal variation under suitable transformation of the metric tensor. We find that for the variation in action to be invariant, it must be a scalar so as to obey the principle of general covariance. From this invariant action principle, we eventually derive the Bianchi identity (where, both the 1st and 2nd forms are been dissolved) by using the Lie derivative and Palatini identity. Finally, from our derived Bianchi identity, splitting it into its components and performing cyclic summation over all the indices, we eventually can derive the covariant derivative of the Riemann curvature tensor. This very formulation was first introduced by S Weinberg in case of a collision less plasma and gravitating system. We derive the Bianchi identity from the action principle via this approach; and hence the name ‘Weinberg formulation of Bianchi identity’.

AbstractWe study the behavior of connections and curvature under the HK/QK correspondence, proving simple formulae expressing the Levi-Civita connection and Riemann curvature tensor on the quaternionic Kähler side in terms of the initial hyper-Kähler data. Our curvature formula refines a well-known decomposition theorem due to Alekseevsky. As an application, we compute the norm of the curvature tensor for a series of complete quaternionic Kähler manifolds arising from flat hyper-Kähler manifolds. We use this to deduce that these manifolds are of cohomogeneity one.

In the present paper we obtained 2 identities, which are satisfied by Riemann curvature tensor of generalized Kenmotsu manifolds. There was obtained an analytic expression for third structure tensor or tensor of f-holomorphic sectional curvature of GK-manifold. We separated 2 classes of generalized Kenmotsu manifolds and collected their local characterization.

Within the framework of the Lovelock gravity theory, we propose a new rank-four divergenceless tensor consisting of the Riemann curvature tensor and inheriting its algebraic symmetry characters. Such a tensor can be adopted to define conserved charges of the Lovelock gravity theory in asymptotically anti-de Sitter (AdS) space–times. Besides, inspired with the case of the Lovelock gravity, we put forward another general fourth-rank tensor in the context of an arbitrary diffeomorphism invariant theory of gravity described by the Lagrangian constructed out of the curvature tensor. On basis of the newly-constructed tensor, we further suggest a Komar-like formula for the conserved charges of this generic gravity theory.

UDC 514.7 The object of the present paper is to study three-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifolds admitting η -Ricci soliton. Actually, we study such manifolds whose Ricci tensor satisfy some special conditions like cyclic parallelity, Ricci semisymmetry, ϕ -Ricci semisymmetry, after reviewing the properties of second order parallel tensors on such manifolds. We determine the form of Riemann curvature tensor of trans-Sasakian manifolds of dimension greater than three as Kagan subprojective spaces. We also give some classification results of trans-Sasakian manifolds of dimension greater than three as Kagan subprojective spaces.
