An AP-Structure with Finslerian Flavor: Path Equations

The Bazanski approach for deriving paths is applied to Finsler geometry. The approach is generalized and applied to a new developed geometry called "Absolute parallelism with a Finslerian Flavor" (FAP). A sets of path equations is derived for the FAP. This is the horizontal (h) set. A striking feature appears in this set, that is: the coefficient of torsion term, in the set, jumps by a step of one-half from one equation to the other. This is tempting to believe that the h-set admits some quantum features. Comparisons with the corresponding sets in other geometries are given. Conditions to reduce the set of path equations obtained, to well known path equations in some geometries are summarized in a schematic diagram.

Motion in Bimetric Type Theories of Gravity

The problem of motion for different test particles, charged and spinning objects of constant spinning tensor in different versions of bimetric theory of gravity is obtained by deriving their corresponding path and path deviation equations, using a modified Bazanski in presence of Riemannian geometry. This method enables us to find path and path deviation equations of different objects orbiting very strong gravitational fields.

Geometrization of Econophysics : An Alternative Approach for Measuring Elements of Risk Management of an Economic System

The relationship between micro-structure and macro-structure of complex systems using information geometry has been dealt by several authors. From this perspective, we are going to apply it as a geometrical structure connecting both microeconomics and macroeconomics . The results lead us to introduce new modified quantities into both micro-macro economics that enable us to describe the link between them. The importance of such a scheme is to find out -with some accuracy- a new method can be introduced for examining the stability of an economic system. This type of requirement is expressed by examining the stability of the equations of path deviations for some economic systems as described in a statistical manifold. Such a geometization scheme of economic systems is an important step toward identifying risk management factors and so contributes to the growing literature of econophysics.

Path and Path Deviation Equations for p-branes

Path and path deviation equations for neutral, charged, spinning and spinning charged test particles, using a modified Bazanski Lagrangian, are derived. We extend this approach to strings and branes. We show how the Bazanski Lagrangian for charged point particles and charged branes arises `a la Kaluza-Klein from the Bazanski Lagrangian in 5-dimensions.

Geometrization of Some Epidemic Models

Recently, the behavior of different epidemic models and their relation both to different types of geometries and to some biological models has been revisited . Path equations representing the behavior of epidemic models and their corresponding deviation vectors are examined. A comparison between paths and their deviation vectors in Riemannian and Finslerian Geometries is presented.

Is dark matter an extra-dimensional effect?

We investigate the possibility that the observed behavior of test particles outside galaxies, which is usually explained by assuming the presence of dark matter, is the result of the dynamical evolution of particles in higher dimensional space-times. Hence, dark matter may be a direct consequence of the presence of an extra force, generated by the presence of extra-dimensions, which modifies the dynamic law of motion, but does not change the intrinsic properties of the particles, like, for example, the mass (inertia). We discuss in some detail several possible particular forms for the extra force, and the acceleration law of the particles is derived. Therefore, the constancy of the galactic rotation curves may be considered as an empirical evidence for the existence of the extra dimensions.

Path and Path Deviation equations of Fractal Space-Times: A Brief Introduction

The idea that the quantum space-time of microphysics may be fractal everywhere was intensively investigated recently, and several authors have presented the geodesic equations of different fractal space - times. In the present work we obtain the geodesic and the geodesic deviation equations in fractal space-times by using the Bazanski method. We also extend this approach to obtain the equations of motion for spinning and spinning charged particles in the above-mentioned spaces, in a similar way to their counterparts in Riemannian geometry.

The Bazanski Approach in Brane Worlds: A Brief Introduction

Paths of test particles, rotating and charged objects in brane-worlds using a modified Bazanski Lagrangian are derived. We also discuss the transition to their corresponding equations in four dimensions. We then make a comparison between the given equations in brane-worlds (BW) and their analog in space-time-matter (STM) theory.

Motion in Brane World Models: The Bazanski Approach

Recently, path equations have been obtained for charged, spinning objects in brane world models, using a modified Bazanski Lagrangian. In this study, path deviation equations of extended objects are derived. The significance of moving extended objects in brane world models is examined. Motion in non- symmetric brane world models is also considered.

Path Deviation Equations in AP-Geometry

Recently, it has been shown that Absolute Parallelism (AP) geometry admits paths that are naturally quantized. These paths have been used to describe the motion of spinning particles in a background gravitational field. In case of a weak static gravitational field limits, the paths are applied successfully to interpret the discrepancy in the motion of thermal neutrons in the Earth's gravitational field (COW-experiment). The aim of the present work is to explore the properties of the deviation equations corresponding to these paths. In the present work the deviation equations are derived and compared to the geodesic deviation equation of the Riemannian geometry.

A New Class of Path Equations in AP-Geometry

In the present work, it is shown that, the application of the Bazanski approach to Lagrangians, written in AP-geometry and including the basic vector of the space, gives rise to a new class of path equations. The general equation representing this class contains four extra terms, whose vanishing reduces this equation to the geodesic one. If the basic vector of the AP-geometry is considered as playing the role of the electromagnetic potential, as done in a previous work, then the second term (of the extra terms) will represent Lorentz force while the fourth term gives a direct effect of the electromagnetic potential on the motion of the charged particle. This last term may give rise to an effect similar to the Aharanov-Bohm effect. It is to be considered that all extra terms will vanish if the space-time used is torsion-less.

Path and Path Deviation Equations in Kaluza-Klein Type Theories

Path and path deviation equations for charged, spinning and spinning charged objects in different versions of Kaluza-Klein (KK) theory using a modified Bazanski Lagrangian have been derived. The significance of motion in five dimensions, especially for a charged spinning object, has been examined. We have also extended the modified Bazanski approach to derive the path and path deviation equations of a test particle in a version of non-symmetric KK theory.

SN1987A: Temporal Models

It is well known that carriers of astrophysical information are massless spinning particles. These carriers are photons, neutrinos and, expectedly, gravitons. All these particles are emitted during supernova events. Information carried by these particles characterize their sources, but such information are affected by the trajectories of the carriers. Recently, it is shown that these trajectories are spin dependent. Knowing these trajectories and the arrival times of such particles to the detectors, a spin dependent model is constructed and compared with the conventional spin independent model.

New Path Equations in Absolute Parallelism Geometry

The Bazanski approach, for deriving the geodesic equations in Riemannian geometry, is generalized in the absolute parallelism geometry. As a consequence of this generalization three path equations are obtained. A striking feature in the derived equations is the appearance of a torsion term with a numerical coefficients that jumps by a step of one half from equation to another. This is tempting to speculate that the paths in absolute parallelism geometry might admit a quantum feature.

Quantum Features of Non-Symmetric Geometries

Paths in an appropriate geometry are usually used as trajectories of test particles in geometric theories of gravity. It is shown that non-symmetric geometries possess some interesting quantum features. Without carrying out any quantization schemes, paths in such geometries are naturally quantized. Two different non-symmetric geometries are examined for these features. It is proved that, whatever the non-symmetric geometry is, we always get the same quantum features. It is shown that these features appear only in the pure torsion term (the anti-symmetric part of the affine connection) of the path equations. The vanishing of the torsion leads to the disappearance of these features, regardless of the symmetric part of the connection. It is suggested that, in order to be consistent with the results of experiments and observations, torsion term in path equations should be parametrized using an appropriate parameter.

Quantum Interference of Thermal Neutrons and Spin-Torsion Interaction

The discrepancy of $0.8 %$ between theory and the COW-experiment is interpreted. This is done by using a new path equation other than the geodesic one. It is shown that this discrepancy is possibly due to a type of interaction between the torsion, of space-time generated by the background field, and the spin of the moving neutron. The results obtained are discussed and compared with the experimental interpretation suggested by Arif et al. in 1994. As a byproduct, an upper limit is imposed on the free parameter of the new path equation used.
