Global Positioning System in Curved Space-Time and Other Applications of General Relativity
In this work, we present some applications of the theory of General Relativity. First, we show a numerical scheme to account for relativistic effects in the Global Positioning System. Then, a couple of applications of astrophysical interest are worked out. These are the study of the gravitational …

On the structure of geometries with spinor-type connexion
… fieldtheoretic description of spinor fields in curved space-time. A geometric model for spinor fields in curved space-time is described which is based upon properties of so-called tangent Clifford algebras. The tangent Clifford algebra to a space-time manifold at a certain point is the quotient …

The Sidereal Visions of Kant, Humboldt, and Einstein: An Introduction to German Cosmological Prose
… with a fanciful vision of gravitationally curved space, time dilation, and ultimate equivalence of mass and energy.

(2+1)-dimensional gravity over a two-holed torus, T²#T²
… nearly canonical, and we speculate on the phase space of dynamical variables. The classical result suggests the quantum mechanical version of the theory exists on curved space time.

Preheating in multifield inflation
… fields. Renormalization of these fields in curved space-time requires these fields to be nonminimally coupled to the space-time Ricci scalar. These couplings induce a nontrivial field-space manifold when we move from the Jordan frame to the Einstein frame. In the Einstein frame, the …
