General covariance violation and the gravitational dark matter. II. Vector graviton
The (four componenet) vector graviton contained in metric, the scalar
component incorporated, is attributed to the violation of the general
covariance to the residual isoharmonic one. In addition to the previously
studied (singlet) scalar graviton, the vector graviton may constitute one more
fraction of the gravitational dark matter. The gravity interactions of the
vector graviton, as well as its impact on the continuous medium are studied.Comment: 10 page
Minimal metagravity vs. dark matter and/or dark energy
The minimal metagravity theory, explicitly violating the general covariance
but preserving the unimodular one, is applied to study the evolution of the
isotropic homogeneous Universe. The massive scalar graviton, contained in the
theory in addition to the massless tensor one, is treated as a source of the
dark matter and/or dark energy. The modified Friedmann equation for the scale
factor of the Universe is derived. The question wether the minimal metagravity
can emulate the LCDM concordance model, valid in General Relativity, is
discussed.Comment: 6 pages, a typo correcte
Parameter counting for neutrino mixing
The content of physical massess, mixing angles and CP-violating phases in the
lepton sector of extended standard model, both renormalizable and
non-renormalizable, with arbitrary numbers of the singlet and left-handed
doublet neutrinos is systematically analyzed in the weak basis.Comment: 11 pages, LaTe
