We extend the Abbott-Deser-Tekin procedure of defining conserved quantities of asymptotically constant-curvature spacetimes, and give an analogous expression for the conserved charges of geometries that are solutions of quadratic curvature gravity models in generic D dimensions and that have arbitrary asymptotes possessing at least one Killing isometry. We show that the resulting charge expression correctly reduces to its counterpart when the background is taken to be a space of constant curvature and, moreover, is background gauge invariant. As applications, we compute and comment on the energies of two specific examples: the three-dimensional Lifshitz black hole and a five-dimensional companion of the first, whose energy has never been calculated before.

Absence of topological effects in the gauged SU(2) nonlinearσmodel in 2+1 dimensions Pak, NAMIK KEMAL; Percacci, R. (American Physical Society (APS), 1987-10-15) We first review the θ sectors of the pure SU(2) nonlinear σ model and the quantization of the topological mass in the SU(2) Yang-Mills theory in 2+1 dimensions. We then show that when the two models are coupled the θ sectors disappear and the topological mass need not be quantized. We work in a canonical formalism and emphasize the role of functional magnetic fields.
Conserved charges in extended theories of gravity Adami, Hamed; Setare, Mohammad Reza; Sisman, Tahsin Cagri; Tekin, Bayram (Elsevier BV, 2019-11-20) We give a detailed review of construction of conserved quantities in extended theories of gravity for asymptotically maximally symmetric spacetimes and carry out explicit computations for various solutions. Our construction is based on the Killing charge method, and a proper discussion of the conserved charges of extended gravity theories with this method requires studying the corresponding charges in Einstein's theory with or without a cosmological constant. Hence we study the ADM charges (in the asymptoti...
Superposition of FLRW universes GÜRSES, METİN; Heydarzade, Yaghoub; Tekin, Bayram (IOP Publishing, 2020-06-01) We show that (1) the Einstein field equations with a perfect fluid source admit a nonlinear superposition of two distinct homogenous Friedman-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) metrics as a solution, (2) the superposed solution is an inhomogeneous geometry in general, (3) it reduces to a homogeneous one in the two asymptotes which are the early and the late stages of the universe as described by two different FLRW metrics, (4) the solution possesses a scale factor inversion symmetry and (5) the solution impli...
Approximate l-state solutions of the D-dimensional Schrodinger equation for Manning-Rosen potential IKHDAİR, SAMEER; Sever, Ramazan (Wiley, 2008-11-01) The Schrodinger equation in D-dimensions for the Manning-Rosen potential with the centrifugal term is solved approximately to obtain bound states eigensolutions (eigenvalues and eigenfunctions). The Nikiforov-Uvarov (NU) method is used in the calculations. We present numerical calculations of energy eigenvalues to two- and four-dimensional systems for arbitrary quantum numbers n and 1, with three different values of the potential parameter alpha. It is shown that because of the interdimensional degeneracy o...
Radiation in Yang-Mills Formulation of Gravity and a Generalized pp-Wave Metric Başkal, Sibel (Oxford University Press (OUP), 1999-10-1) Variational methods applied to a quadratic Yang-Mills-type Lagrangian yield two sets of relations interpreted as the field equations and the energy-momentum tensor for the gravitational field. A covariant condition is imposed on the energy-momentum tensor in order for it to represent the radiation field. A generalized pp-wave metric is found to simultaneously satisfy both the field equations and the radiation condition. The result is compared with that of Lichnerowicz.
