On the formulations of the Fermat principle in general relativity and beyond
Erasmo Caponio, Miguel Angel Javaloyes
This paper presents a survey of the Fermat principle within the framework of general relativity, tracing its evolution from classical optics to its modern variational formulation i…
On the significance of the stress-energy tensor in Finsler spacetimes
Miguel Ángel Javaloyes, Miguel Sánchez, Fidel F. Villaseñor
We revisit the physical arguments which lead to the definition of the stress-energy tensor in the Lorentz-Finsler setting starting at classical Relativity. Both the sta…
Foundations of Finsler spacetimes from the Observers' Viewpoint
Antonio Bernal, Miguel Ángel Javaloyes, Miguel Sánchez
Physical foundations for relativistic spacetimes are revisited, in order to check at what extent Finsler spacetimes lie in their framework. Arguments based on inertial observers (a…
A note on the existence of standard splittings for conformally stationary spacetimes
Miguel Angel Javaloyes, Miguel Sánchez
Let be a spacetime which admits a complete timelike conformal Killing vector field . We prove that splits globally as a standard conformastationary spacetime wit…
