We present new classes of exact solutions with noncommutative symmetries constructed in vacuum Einstein gravity (in general, with nonzero cosmological constant), five-dimensional (5D) gravity and (anti) de Sitter gauge gravity. Such solutions are generated by anholonomic frame transforms and parametrized by generic off-diagonal metrics. For certain particular cases, the new classes of metrics have explicit limits with Killing symmetries but, in general, they may be characterized by certain anholonomic noncommutative matrix geometries. We argue that different classes of noncommutative symmetries can be induced by exact solutions of the field equations in commutative gravity modeled by a corresponding moving real and complex frame geometry. We analyze two classes of black ellipsoid solutions (in the vacuum case and with cosmological constant) in four-dimensional gravity and construct the analytic extensions of metrics for certain classes of associated frames with complex valued coefficients. The third class...

A generalized geometric method is developed for constructing exact solutions of gravitational field equations in Einstein theory and generalizations. First, we apply the formalism of nonholonomic frame deformations (formally considered for nonholonomic manifolds and Finsler spaces) when the gravitational field equations transform into systems of nonlinear partial differential equations which can be integrated in general form. The new classes of solutions are defined by generic off-diagonal metrics depending on integration functions on one, two and three (or three and four) variables if we consider four (or five) dimensional spacetimes. Second, we use a general scheme when one (two) parameter families of exact solutions are defined by any source-free solutions of Einsteins equations with one (two) Killing vector field(s). A successive iteration procedure results in new classes of solutions characterized by an infinite number of parameters for a non-Abelian group involving arbitrary functions on one variable. Five classes of exact off-diagonal solutions are constructed in vacuum Einstein and in string gravity describing solitonic pp-wave interactions. We explore possible physical consequences of such solutions derived from primary Schwarzschild or pp-wave metrics.

Abstract We shall present an introduction to the theory of gravity on locally anisotropic spaces modelled as vector bundles provided with compatible nonlinear and distinguished linear connection and metric structures (such spaces are obtained by a nonlinear connection reduction or compactification from higher dimensional spaces to lower dimensional ones and contain as particular cases various generalizations of Kaluza–Klein and Finsler geometry). We shall analyze the conditions for consistent propagation of closed strings in locally anisotropic background spaces. The connection between conformal invariance, the vanishing of the renormalization groupβ-function of the generalizedσ-model, and field equations of locally anisotropic gravity will be studied in detail.

It is our purpose here to show that the spinor theory admits generalization for curved spaces with local anisotropy (for example, for Finsler, Lagrange, and generalized Lagrange spaces).The theory of spinors is developed for locally anisotropic (la) spaces, in brief la-spaces, which in general are modeled as vector bundles provided with nonlinear and distinguished connections and metric structures (such la-spaces contain as particular cases the Lagrange, Finsler and, for trivial nonlinear connections, Kaluza-Klein spaces). The la-spinor differential geometry is constructed. The distinguished spinor connections are studied and compared with similar ones on la-spaces. We derive the la-spinor expressions of curvatures and torsions and analyze the conditions when the distinguished torsion and nonmetricity tensors can be generated from distinguished spinor connections. The dynamical equations for gravitational and matter field la-interactions are formulated.

We study the geometric and physical foundations of Finsler gravity theories with metric compatible connections defined on tangent bundles, or (pseudo) Riemannian manifolds). There are analyzed alternatives to Einstein gravity (including theories with broken local Lorentz invariance) and shown how general relativity and modifications can be equivalently re-formulated in Finsler like variables. We focus on prospects in modern cosmology and Finsler acceleration of Universe. All known formalisms are outlined - anholonomic frames with associated nonlinear connection structure, the geometry of the Levi-Civita and Finsler type connections, all defined by the same metric structure, Einstein equations in standard form and/or with nonholonomic/ Finsler variables - and the following topics are discussed: motivation for Finsler gravity; generalized principles of equivalence and covariance; fundamental geometric/ physical structures; field equations and nonholonomic constraints; equivalence with other models of gravity and viability criteria. Einstein-Finsler gravity theories are elaborated following almost the same principles as in the general relativity theory but extended to Finsler metrics and connections. Gravity models with anisotropy can be defined on (co) tangent bundles or on nonholonomic pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. In the second case, Finsler geometries can be modelled as exact solutions in Einstein gravity. Finally, some examples of generic off-diagonal metrics and generalized connections, defining anisotropic cosmological Einstein-Finsler spaces are analyzed; certain criteria for Finsler accelerating evolution are analyzed.

Abstract The kinetic theory is formulated with respect to anholonomic frames of reference on curved spacetimes. By using the concept of nonlinear connection we develop an approach to modelling locally anisotropic kinetic processes and, in corresponding limits, the relativistic nonequilibrium thermodynamics with local anisotropy. This leads to a unified formulation of the kinetic equations on (pseudo) Riemannian spaces and in various higher dimensional models of Kaluza–Klein type and/or generalized Lagrange and Finsler spaces. The transition rate considered for the locally anisotropic transport equations is related to the differential cross section and spacetime parameters of anisotropy. The equations of states for pressure and energy in locally anisotropic thermodynamics are derived. The obtained general expressions for heat conductivity, shear, and volume viscosity coefficients are applied to determine the transport coefficients of cosmic fluids in spacetimes with generic local anisotropy. We emphasize that such local anisotropic structures are induced also in general relativity if we are modelling physical processes with respect to frames with mixed sets of holonomic and anholonomic basis vectors which naturally admits an associated nonlinear connection structure.

A new method of construction of integral varieties of Einstein equations in three dimensional (3D) and 4D gravity is presented whereby, under corresponding redefinition of physical values with respect to anholonomic frames of reference with associated nonlinear connections, the structure of gravity field equations is substantially simplified. It is shown that there are 4D solutions of Einstein equations which are constructed as nonlinear superpositions of soliton solutions of 2D (pseudo) Euclidean sine-Gordon equations (or of Lorentzian black holes in Jackiw-Teitelboim dilaton gravity). The Belinski-Zakharov-Meison solitons for vacuum gravitational field equations are generalized to various cases of two and three coordinate dependencies, local anisotropy and matter sources. The general framework of this study is based on investigation of anholonomic soliton-dilaton black hole structures in general relativity. We prove that there are possible static and dynamical black hole, black torus and disk/cylinder like solutions (of non-vacuum gravitational field equations) with horizons being parametrized by hypersurface equations of rotation ellipsoid, torus, cylinder and another type configurations. Solutions describing locally anisotropic variants of the Schwarzschild-- Kerr (black hole), Weyl (cylindrical symmetry) and Neugebauer--Meinel (disk) solutions with anisotropic variable masses, distributions of matter and interaction constants are shown to be contained in Einsteins gravity. It is demonstrated in which manner locally anisotropic multi-soliton-- dilaton-black hole type solutions can be generated.

We study possible links between quantum gravity phenomenology encoding Lorentz violations as nonlinear dispersions, the Einstein–Finsler gravity models, EFG, and nonholonomic (non-integrable) deformations to Hořava–Lifshitz, HL, and/or Einstein’s general relativity, GR, theories. EFG and its scaling anisotropic versions formulated as Hořava–Finsler models, HF, are constructed as covariant metric compatible theories on (co) tangent bundle to Lorentz manifolds and respective anisotropic deformations. Such theories are integrable in general form and can be quantized following standard methods of deformation quantization, A-brane formalism and/or (perturbatively) as a nonholonomic gauge like model with bi-connection structure. There are natural warping/trapping mechanisms, defined by the maximal velocity of light and locally anisotropic gravitational interactions in a (pseudo) Finsler bulk spacetime, to four dimensional (pseudo) Riemannian spacetimes. In this approach, the HL theory and scenarios of recovering GR at large distances are generated by imposing nonholonomic constraints on the dynamics of HF, or EFG, fields.

We analyze locally anisotropic configurations modeled by anholonomic frames with associated nonlinear connections in general relativity, affine–Poincarè and/or de Sitter gauge gravity and Kaluza–Klein theories. A suitable geometrical formalism for theories with higher order anisotropies and non compactified extra dimensions is introduced. We give a mostly self–containing review of some aspects of gauge models of gravity and discuss their anholonomic generalizations and the conditions of equivalence with the Einstein gravity in arbitrary dimensions. New classes of cosmological solutions describing Friedmann–Robertson–Walker like universes with resolution ellipsoid or torus symmetry.
