Effective Gravitational “Constant” in Scalar-(Curvature)Tensor and Scalar-Torsion Gravities
In theories where a scalar field couples nonminimally to gravity, the effective gravitational “constant” becomes dependent on the value of the scalar field. This note first gives a brief review on how the cosmological evolution provides a dynamical stabilization for the gravitational “constant” as the system relaxes towards general relativity in matter dominated and potential dominated regimes ...
متن کاملMinimal Curves of Constant Torsion
The Griffiths formalism is applied to find constant torsion curves which are extremal for arclength with respect to variations preserving torsion, fixing the endpoints and the binormals at the endpoints. The critical curves are elastic rods of constant torsion, which are shown to not realize certain boundary conditions. In the calculus of variations under nonholonomic constraints, one tries to ...
متن کاملBacklund transformations and knots of constant torsion
The BB acklund transformation for pseudospherical surfaces, which is equivalent to that of the sine-Gordon equation, can be restricted to give a transformation on space curves that preserves constant torsion. We study its eeects on closed curves (in particular, elastic rods) that generate multiphase solutions for the vortex lament ow (also known as the Localized Induction Equation). In doing so...
متن کامل2 a “ Running ” Gravitational Constant ?
If the gravitational interaction is unified with the electro-weak and strong interactions at a mass M = 10 15 GeV, the evolution of Newton's constant must differ from its classical (general relativistic) form. We can model such behavior by introducing an ad hoc dependence on ℓn(s/4m 2), where s is the usual cm energy between two protons. We can then predict the observable effects for relativist...
متن کاملQuintessence, the Gravitational Constant, and Gravity
Dynamical vacuum energy or quintessence, a slowly varying and spatially inhomogeneous component of the energy density with negative pressure, is currently consistent with the observational data. One potential difficulty with the idea of quintessence is that couplings to ordinary matter should be strongly suppressed so as not to lead to observable time variations of the constants of nature. We f...
