Regularization of f(T)f(T) gravity theories and local Lorentz transformation

We regularized the field equations of $f(T)$ gravity theories such that the effect of Local Lorentz Transformation (LLT), in the case of spherical symmetry, is removed. A "general tetrad field", with an arbitrary function of radial coordinate preserving spherical symmetry is provided. We split that tetrad field into two matrices; the first represents a LLT, which contains an arbitrary function, the second matrix represents a proper tetrad field which is a solution to the field equations of $f(T)$ gravitational theory, (which are not invariant under LLT). This "general tetrad field" is then applied to the regularized field equations of $f(T)$. We show that the effect of the arbitrary function which is involved in the LLT invariably disappears.Comment: 12 page

Grover Algorithm with zero theoretical failure rate

In standard Grover's algorithm for quantum searching, the probability of finding the marked item is not exactly 1. In this Letter we present a modified version of Grover's algorithm that searches a marked state with full successful rate. The modification is done by replacing the phase inversion by two phase rotation through angle $\phi$. The rotation angle is given analytically to be $\phi=2 \arcsin(\sin{\pi\over (4J+6)}\over \sin\beta)$, where $\sin\beta={1\over \sqrt{N}}$, $N$ the number of items in the database, and $J$ an integer equal to or greater than the integer part of $({\pi\over 2}-\beta)/(2\beta)$. Upon measurement at $(J+1)$-th iteration, the marked state is obtained with certainty.Comment: 5 pages. Accepted for publication in Physical Review

On the Regularization of Kerr-NUT spacetime: I

Within the framework of teleparallel equivalent of general relativity (TEGR) theory, calculation of the total energy and momentum of Kerr-NUT spacetimes have been employed using two methods of the gravitational energy-momentum, which is coordinate independent, and the Riemannian connection 1-form, ${\widetilde{\Gamma}_\alpha}^\beta$. It has been shown that the two methods give the same an unacceptable result, i.e., divergent value. Therefore, a local Lorentz transformation that plays a role of a regularizing tool, which subtracts the inertial effects without distorting the true gravitational contribution, has been suggested. This transformation keeps the resulting spacetime to be a solution of the equations of motion of TEGR.Comment: 10 pages, Latex (Will appear in Prog. Theor. Phys.

Schwarzschild solution in extended teleparallel gravity

Tetrad field, with two unknown functions of radial coordinate and an angle $\Phi$ which is the polar angle $\phi$ times a function of the redial coordinate, is applied to the field equation of modified theory of gravity. Exact vacuum solution is derived whose scalar torsion, $T ={T^\alpha}_{\mu \nu} {S_\alpha}^{\mu \nu}$, is constant. When the angle $\Phi$ coincides with the polar angle $\phi$, the derived solution will be a solution only for linear form of $f(T)$ gravitational theory.Comment: 8 pages Late

A Rejoinder on Quaternionic Projective Representations

In a series of papers published in this Journal (J. Math. Phys.), a discussion was started on the significance of a new definition of projective representations in quaternionic Hilbert spaces. The present paper gives what we believe is a resolution of the semantic differences that had apparently tended to obscure the issues.Comment: AMStex, 6 Page
