Towards an Alternative Gravitational Theory
J. A. Nieto, L. A. Beltrán
In 1680 Cassini proposed oval curves as alternative trajectories for the visible planets around the sun. The Cassini ovals were of course overshadow by the Kepler's first law (1609…
Phirotopes, Super p-branes and Qubit Theory
J. A. Nieto
The phirotope is a complex generalization of the concept of chirotope in oriented matroid theory. Our main goal in this work is to establish a link between phirotopes, super p-bran…
Higher Dimensional Elko Theory
J. A. Nieto
We show that the so called Elko equation can be derived from a 5-dimensional Dirac equation. We argue that this result can be relevant for dark matter and cosmological scenarios. W…
SL(2,R)-geometric phase space and (2+2)-dimensions
R. Flores, J. A. Nieto, J. Tellez +2
We propose an alternative geometric mathematical structure for arbitrary phase space. The main guide in our approach is the hidden SL(2,R)-symmetry which acts on the phase space ch…
Dirac equation in (1+3) and (2+2) dimensions
J. A. Nieto, C. Pereyra
We develop a systematic method to derive the Majorana representation of the Dirac equation in (1+3)-dimensions. We compare with similar approach in (2+2)-dimensions . We argue that…
Scale-Free Growing Networks and Gravity
J. A. Nieto
We propose a possible relation between complex networks and gravity. Our guide in our proposal is the power-law distribution of the node degree in network theory and the informatio…
