Torsion Effects in Braneworld Scenarios
J. M. Hoff da Silva, R. da Rocha
We present gravitational aspects of braneworld models endowed with torsion terms both in the bulk and on the brane. In order to investigate a conceivable and measurable gravitation…
Reply to Itin, Obukhov and Hehl paper "An Electric Charge has no Screw Sense - A Comment on the Twist-Free Formulation of Electrodynamics by da Rocha & Rodrigues"
Roldao da Rocha, Waldyr A. Rodrigues
In this note we briefly comment a paper by Itin, Obukhov and Hehl criticising our previous paper. We show that all remarks by our critics are ill conceived or irrelevant to our app…
Rigorous Formulation of Duality in Gravitational Theories
Roldao da Rocha, Waldyr A. Rodrigues
In this paper we evince a rigorous formulation of duality in gravitational theories where an Einstein like equation is valid, by providing the conditions under which the Hodge dual…
Some Thoughts on Geometries and on the Nature of the Gravitational Field
E. A. Notte-Cuello, R. da Rocha, W. A. Rodrigues
In this paper we show how a gravitational field generated by a given energy-momentum distribution (for all realistic cases) can be represented by distinct geometrical structures (L…
