One has not any conventional energy-momentum conservation law in Lagrangian field theory, but relations involving different stress-energy-momentum tensors associated with different connections. It is not obvious how to choose the true energy-momentum tensor. This problem is solved in the framework of the multimomentum …

On $Spin^c$ manifolds, we study the Energy-Momentum tensor associated with a spinor field. First, we give a spinorial Gauss type formula for oriented hypersurfaces of a $Spin^c$ manifold. Using the notion of generalized cylinders, we derive the variationnal formula for the Dirac operator under metric deformation and po…

Derives energy-momentum tensor from Standard Model, examines energy conditions.

This article attempts to delineate the roles played by non-dynamical background structures and Killing symmetries in the construction of stress-energy-momentum tensors generated from a diffeomorphism invariant action density. An intrinsic coordinate independent approach puts into perspective a number of spurious argume…

In this paper, we analyzed the physical meaning of scalar curvatures for a generalized Riemannian space. It is developed the Madsen's formulae for pressures and energy-densities with respect to the corresponding energy-momentum tensors. After that, the energy-momentum tensors, pressures, energy-densities and state-para…

This paper aims to study the $W$-curvature tensor on relativistic space-times. The energy-momentum tensor T of a space-time is semi-symmetric given that the $W$-curvature tensor is semi-symmetric whereas energy-momentum tensor T of a space-time having a divergence free $W$-curvature tensor is of Codazzi type. A space-t…

Differential conservation laws in Lagrangian field theory are usually related to symmetries of a Lagrangian density and are obtained if the Lie derivative of a Lagrangian density by a certain class of vector fields on a fiber bundle vanishes. However, only two field models meet this property in fact. In gauge theory of…

This work is devoted to the study of Einstein equations with a special shape of the energy-momentum tensor. Our results continue Stepanov's classification of Riemannian manifolds according to special properties of the energy-momentum tensor to Kähler manifolds. We show that in this case the number of classes reduces.

By using variational calculus and exterior derivative formalism, we proposed in two previous joint papers with S. Siparov a new geometric approach for electromagnetism in pseudo-Finsler spaces. In the present paper, we provide more details, especially regarding generalized currents, the domain of integration and gauge …

We show that it is natural to consider the energy-momentum tensor associated with a spinor field as the second fundamental form of an isommetric immersion. In particular we give a generalization of the warped product construction over a Riemannian manifold leading to this interpretation. Special sections of the spinor …

We show that there are isometrically nonequivalent Robertson-Walker metrics which have the same set of geodesics. While one of these metrics satisfies the Einstein equations of pure dust without a cosmological constant, all the other describe pure dust with additional energy momentum tensor of cosmological constant typ…

On a compact surface endowed with any $\Spinc$ structure, we give a formula involving the Energy-Momentum tensor in terms of geometric quantities. A new proof of a Bär-type inequality for the eigenvalues of the Dirac operator is given. The round sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$ with its canonical $\Spinc$ structure satisfies the …

A necessary and sufficient condition for energy-momentum conservation is proved within a topological, pre-metric approach to classical electrodynamics including magnetic as well as electric charges.

The main objective of the present paper is to investigate the curvature properties of generalized pp-wave metric. It is shown that generalized pp-wave spacetime is Ricci generalized pseudosymmetric, 2-quasi-Einstein and generalized quasi-Einstein in the sense of Chaki. As a special case it is shown that pp-wave spaceti…

In this paper, we extend the Hijazi inequality, involving the Energy-Momentum tensor, for the eigenvalues of the Dirac operator on $Spin^c$ manifolds without boundary. The limiting case is then studied and an example is given.

We discuss the coupling of the electromagnetic field with a curved and torsioned Lyra manifold using the Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau theory. We will show how to obtain the equations of motion and energy-momentum and spin density tensors by means of the Schwinger Variational Principle.

We compute all 2-covariant tensors naturally constructed from a semiriemannian metric which are divergence-free and have weight greater than -2. As a consequence, it follows a characterization of the Einstein tensor as the only, up to a constant factor, 2-covariant tensor naturally constructed from a semiriemannian met…

Smooth deformations of a Minkowski type metric in a four-dimensional space-time manifold are considered. Deformations of the basic spin-tensorial fields associated with this metric are calculated and their application to calculating the energy-momentum tensor of a massive spin 1/2 particle is shown.

A spacetime is a connected 4-dimensional semi-Riemannian manifold endowed with a metric $g$ with signature $(- + + +)$. The geometry of a spacetime is described by the metric tensor $g$ and the Ricci tensor $S$ of type $(0, 2)$ whereas the energy momentum tensor of type $(0,2)$ describes the physical contents of the sp…

The Dirac field is studied in a Lyra space-time background by means of the classical Schwinger Variational Principle. We obtain the equations of motion, establish the conservation laws, and get a scale relation relating the energy-momentum and spin tensors. Such scale relation is an intrinsic property for matter fields…

In Lorentzian manifolds of any dimension the concept of causal tensors is introduced. Causal tensors have positivity properties analogous to the so-called ``dominant energy condition''. Further, it is shown how to build, from ANY given tensor $A$, a new tensor quadratic in $A$ and ``positive'', in the sense that it is …

Let $\nabla$ be a metric connection with totally skew-symmetric torsion $\T$ on a Riemannian manifold. Given a spinor field $Ψ$ and a dilaton function $Φ$, the basic equations in type II B string theory are \bdm \nabla Ψ= 0, \quad δ(\T) = a \cdot \big(d Φ\haken \T \big), \quad \T \cdot Ψ= b \cdot d Φ\cdot Ψ+ μ\cdot Ψ. …

A spacetime denotes a pure radiation field if its energy momentum tensor represents a situation in which all the energy is transported in one direction with the speed of light. In 1989, Wils and later in 1997 Ludwig and Edgar studied the physical properties of pure radiation metrics, which are conformally related to a …

In this paper, we give a new lower bound for the eigenvalues of the Dirac operator on a compact spin manifold. This estimate is motivated by the fact that in its limiting case a skew-symmetric tensor (see Equation \eqref{eq:16}) appears that can be identified geometrically with the O'Neill tensor of a Riemannian flow, …

We give a spinorial characterization of isometrically immersed surfaces into 3-dimensional homogeneous manifolds with 4-dimensional isometry group in terms of the existence of a particular spinor, called generalized Killing spinor. This generalizes results by T. Friedrich for $\R^3$ and B. Morel for $\Ss^3$ and $\HH^3$…

We construct supersymmetric field theories on Riemannian three-manifolds M, focusing on N=2 theories with a U(1)_R symmetry. Our approach is based on the rigid limit of new minimal supergravity in three dimensions, which couples to the flat-space supermultiplet containing the R-current and the energy-momentum tensor. T…

In this paper, we extend the Hijazi type inequality, involving the Energy-Momentum tensor, to the eigenvalues of the Dirac operator on complete Riemannian Spin$^c$ manifolds without boundary and of finite volume. Under some additional assumptions, using the refined Kato inequality, we prove the Hijazi type inequality f…

It is shown that Robinson-Trautman metric admits several kinds of pseudosymmetric type structures such as Weyl pseudosymmetric, Ricci pseudosymmetric, pseudosymmetric Weyl conformal curvature tensor etc. Also it is shown that the difference $R…

We extend Brill's positive mass theorem to a large class of asymptotically flat, maximal, $U(1)^2$-invariant initial data sets on simply connected four dimensional manifolds $Σ$. Moreover, we extend the local mass angular momenta inequality result Ref [1] for $U(1)^2$ invariant black holes to the case with nonzero stre…

We give a spinorial characterization of isometrically immersed hypersurfaces into 4-dimensional space forms and product spaces $\M^3(κ)\times\R$, in terms of the existence of particular spinor fields, called generalized Killing spinors or equivalently solutions of a Dirac equation. This generalizes to higher dimensions…

Based on a general $(1+3)$ threading of the spacetime $(M,g)$, we obtain a new and simple splitting of a both the Einstein field equations (EFE) and the conservation laws in $(M,g)$. As an application we obtain the splitting of (EFE) in an almost FLRW universe with energy-momentum tensor of a perfect fluid. In particul…

This article uses Cartan-Kähler theory to construct local conservation laws from covariantly closed vector valued differential forms, objects that can be given, for example, by harmonic maps between two Riemannian manifolds. We apply the article's main result to construct conservation laws for covariant divergence free…

These tensors have good mathematical and physical properties, and they can be used in any theory having as basic arena an n-dimensional manifold with a metric of Lorentzian signature. In general, the completely …

In this paper, we studied the full Einstein-Hilbert actions with respect to non-symmetric metrics and the corresponding torsion. The first concrete result in this paper are the general formulae for pressure and density with respect to the Madsen's article (the equation (3.1), in [10]). Based on these results, we obtain…

We give new estimates for the eigenvalues of the hypersurface Dirac operator in terms of the intrinsic energy-momentum tensor, the mean curvature and the scalar curvature. We also discuss their limiting cases as well as the limiting cases of the estimates obtained by X. Zhang and O. Hijazi in [13] and [10]. We compare …

We study some analytical and geometric properties of a two-dimensional nonlinear sigma model with gravitino which comes from supersymmetric string theory. When the action is critical w.r.t. variations of the various fields including the gravitino, there is a symmetric, traceless and divergence-free energy-momentum tens…

The eigenvalue problem for the Sen--Witten operator on closed spacelike hypersurfaces is investigated. The (square of its) eigenvalues are shown to be given exactly by the 3-surface integral appearing in the expression of the total energy-momentum of the matter+gravity systems in Witten's energy positivity proof. A sha…

We show that the action functional of the nonlinear sigma model with gravitino considered in a previous article [18] is invariant under rescaled conformal transformations, super Weyl transformations and diffeomorphisms. We give a careful geometric explanation how a variation of the metric leads to the corresponding var…

We consider Yang-Mills theory with a matrix gauge group $G$ on a direct product manifold $M=Σ_2\times H^2$, where $Σ_2$ is a two-dimensional Lorentzian manifold and $H^2$ is a two-dimensional open disc with the boundary $S^1=\partial H^2$. The Euler-Lagrange equations for the metric on $Σ_2$ yield constraint equations …

This paper proves a positive energy-momentum theorem for oriented Riemannian 3-manifolds that are asymptotic to a standard hyperbolic slice in anti de Sitter space-time. Analogously to the original Witten's proof in the asymptotically flat case, this result relies on spinorial methods. We also give a rigidity theorem: …
