Abstract:

In this thesis we examine the properties of Cosmic Strings in the theory of General Relativity. We begin by considering static Cosmic Strings in flat space-time. We derive the field equations for the Cosmic String and show that the solution depends upon a single scaling parameter a which is constructed from the physical constants. Using this result we construct 1-parameter families of solutions which depend on an auxiliary parameter e and which describe the thin-string limit of a Cosmic String. By interpreting these solutions as elements of the simplified Colombeau algebra we may interpret the

Thesis (MSc)--University of Stellenbosch, 2006.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Entropy bounds arise from Black hole thermodynamics and are a significant departure from the conventional understanding of the information in a given region. This shift in paradigm is a consequence of the the fact that there is an unexpected relationship between the area and the entropy of a given region of spacetime. Entropy bounds are simplified formulations which are ultimately attempting to be developed into the complete and broad conjecture of the Holographic Principle. This hasn’t been achieved successfully as yet.

Abstract:

We undertake a study of the classical regime in which Planck's constant and Newton's gravitational constant are negligible, but not their ratio, the Planck mass, in hopes that this could possibly lead to testable quantum gravity (QG) effects in a classical regime. In this quest for QG phenomenology we consider modifications of the standard dispersion relation of a free particle known as deformed special relativity (DSR). We try to geometrize DSR to find the geometric origin of the spacetime and momentum space. In particular, we adopt the framework of Hamilton geometry which is set up on phase

The thesis considers various problems in general relativity concerning projective and Ricci collineations. A result due to Yano in the maximum dimension of the projective algebra on a non-flat space-time is improved using a pointwise classification scheme. The converse of a result, relating Weyl projective vector fields and curvature collineations under certain well defined circumstances, is given. A result is presented showing that, under specified conditions a space-time admitting a proper special projective vector field admits a proper special conformal vector field and vice versa. The work

Abstract:

Understanding the apparent accelerating expansion rate of the universe is a challenge for modern cosmology. One category of explanations is that we are using the wrong gravitational physics to study the observations. Our paradigmatic theory of gravity – Einstein’s theory of General Relativity – may be subsumed by a larger theory. This thesis develops a selection of tools for testing General Relativity and the numerous alternative theories of gravity that have been put forward. I advocate that an elegant and efficient way to test this space of theories is through the use of parameterized framew

Abstract:

This thesis considers several problems in general relativity which involve the <i>sectional curvature function</i> σ. The causal structure defined by Lorentzian metrics on space-times makes the behaviour of σ more interesting in general relativity than in classical (positive-definite) geometry and comparisons between results in classical and Lorentzian geometry are made which illustrate this point. The thesis as a whole emphasises the geometrical rather than the physical aspects of the theory. There are three principal areas of study contained in this thesis: A theorem by J.L. Synge which rela

The General theory of Relativity (GR) brought gravity into accord with the principles of locality and relativity. Since its discovery it has been preeminent, recognized as the most accurate description of gravity on the many scales where it has been tested. During this period, seemingly radical predictions like the existence of black holes and the expansion of the Universe have been verified and testify to the great leap of insight that GR represented in our understanding of space and time.

This thesis considers various aspects of general relativity in more than four spacetime dimensions. Firstly, I review the generalization to higher dimensions of the algebraic classification of the Weyl tensor and the Newman-Penrose formalism. In four dimensions, these techniques have proved useful for studying many aspects of general relativity, and it is hoped that their higher dimensional generalizations will prove equally useful in the future. Unfortunately, many calculations using the Newman-Penrose formalism can be unnecessarily complicated. To address this, I describe new work introducin

The theoretical possibility of global causality violation has long been a problem within general relativity, for there exists a large number of model spacetimes known to admit <I>closed timelike curves</I>, trajectories allowing a timelike observer to return to some point in her own past.

These physicality issues rendered causality-violation to the status of an interesting but safely theoretical problem until twenty years ago, when the appearance of a new type of causality-violating model spacetime and the subsequent prolifera

The observational approach to cosmology is the endeavour to reconstruct the geometry of the Universe using only data that is theoretically verifiable within the causal boundaries of a cosmological observer. Using this approach, it was shown in [36] that given ideal cosmological observations, the only essential assumption necessary to determine the geometry of the Universe is a theory of gravity. Assuming General Relativity, the full set of Einstein field equations (EFEs) can be used to reconstruct the geometry of the Universe using direct observations on the past null cone (PNC) as initial con

In Brans-Dicke gravity a scalar field non-minimally coupled with the curvature acts as a new gravitational degree of freedom in addition to the usual metric field of General Relativity. Usually, when the coupling ω of the scalar field diverges, the latter approaches a constant and the solutions of the theory reduce to those generated by the Einstein equations with the same energy-momentum tensor as source. However, in the limit ω → ∞, the static and spherically symmetric vacuum solutions, called Brans solutions, do not reduce to the Schwarzschild metric, the only solution of General Relativity
