Multiple connecting geodesics of a Randers-Kropina metric via homotopy theory for solutions of an affine control system
Erasmo Caponio, Miguel Angel Javaloyes, Antonio Masiello
We consider a geodesic problem in a manifold endowed with a Randers-Kropina metric. This is a type of singular Finsler metric arising both in the description of the lightlike vecto…
On homotopy properties of solutions of some differential inclusions in the -topology
Erasmo Caponio, Antonio Masiello, Stefan Suhr
We consider a differential inclusion on a manifold, defined by a field of open half-spaces whose boundary in each tangent space is the kernel of a one-form. We make the assumption…
Lessons learned after three years of SPIDER operation and the first MITICA integrated tests
D. Marcuzzi, V. Toigo, M. Boldrin +139
ITER envisages the use of two heating neutral beam injectors plus an optional one as part of the auxiliary heating and current drive system. The 16.5 MW expected neutral beam power…
A note on the Sagnac effect in general relativity as a Finslerian effect
Erasmo Caponio, Antonio Masiello
The geometry of the Sagnac effect in a stationary region of a spacetime is reviewed with the aim of emphasizing the role of asymmetry of a Finsler metric defined on a spacelike hyp…
Connecting and closed geodesics of a Kropina metric
Erasmo Caponio, Fabio Giannoni, Antonio Masiello +1
We prove some results about existence of connecting and closed geodesics in a manifold endowed with a Kropina metric. These have applications to both null geodesics of spacetimes e…
On the analyticity of static solutions of a field equation in Finsler gravity
Erasmo Caponio, Antonio Masiello
It is well-known that static vacuum solutions of Einstein equations are analytic in suitable coordinates. We ask here for an extension of this result in the context of Finsler grav…
