Compact Stars in Symmetric Teleparallel Scalar-Tensor Gravity
Grigorios Panotopoulos, Andrés Lueiza-ColipÃ, Nikolaos Dimakis +1
We investigate the existence of static, spherically symmetric compact objects within the framework of symmetric teleparallel scalar-tensor gravity. This theory extends the Brans-Di…
Dirac-Bergmann algorithm and canonical quantization of -essence cosmology
Andrés Lueiza-ColipÃ, Andronikos Paliathanasis, Nikolaos Dimakis
We develop a general canonical quantization scheme for -essence cosmology in scalar-tensor theory. Utilizing the Dirac-Bergmann algorithm, we construct the Hamiltonian associate…
Relativistic stars in -gravity: Exact analytic solution for the power-law case
Nikolaos Dimakis, Alex Giacomini, Andronikos Paliathanasis +1
We investigate static spherically symmetric spacetimes within the framework of symmetric teleparallel gravity in order to describe relativistic stars. We adopt a specific an…
-cosmological dynamics in the FLRW background
Nikolaos Dimakis, Alex Giacomini, Genly Leon +3
We examine the cosmological dynamics of Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity models in a four-dimensional spatially flat FLRW metric. These models are described by $f\left( R,\mathcal{G}\…
Quantum Mechanics from General Relativity and the Quantum Friedmann Equation
Marco Matone, Nikolaos Dimakis
We demonstrate that the recently introduced linear equation, reformulating the first Friedmann equation, is the first-order WKB expansion of a quantum cosmological equation. This r…
Geodesic motion in Bogoslovsky-Finsler Spacetimes
M. Elbistan, P. -M. Zhang, N. Dimakis +2
We study the free motion of a massive particle moving in the background of a Finslerian deformation of a plane gravitational wave in Einstein's General Relativity. The deformation…
