This book investigates Lorentzian structures in the four-dimensional space-time, supplemented either by a covector field of the time-direction or by a scalar field of the global time. Furthermore, it proposes a new metrizable model of gravity. In contrast to the usual General Relativity theory, where all ten components of the symmetric pseudo-metric are independent variables, the gravity model presented here essentially depends only on a single four-covector field, and is restricted to have only three-independent components. However, the author proves that the gravitational field, governed by the proposed model and generated by some massive body, resting and spherically symmetric in some coordinate system, is given by a pseudo-metric that coincides with the well known Schwarzschild metric from General Relativity. The Maxwell equations and electrodynamics are also investigated in the framework of the proposed model. In particular, the covariant formulation of electrodynamics of moving dielectrics and para/diamagnetic media is derived.
Arkady Poliakovsky is Associate Professor at the Department of Mathematics at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Be'er Sheva, Israel. His main specialization is Calculus of Variations and Partial Differential Equations. However he is also interested in Physics, Mathematical Physics, Fluid Mechanics, Differential Geometry and Tensor Calculus.
Born in Russia in 1978, he immigrated with his parents to Israel in 1993 and obtained all his academic degrees from the Department of Mathematics of the Technion - I.I.T., Haifa, Israel: his primary Bachelor degree (summa cum laude) in 1999, a M.Sc. degree in 2002, a Ph.D. in 2005.
During the period 2005-2012 he held PostDoc positions in different universities: Paris VI, University of Zurich, University of Duisburg-Essen, University of Bonn, University of Rome - Tor Vergata. He was appointed to a Tenure Track position at Ben Gurion University of the Negev (Be'er Sheva, Israel) in 2012 ( Senior Lecturer till 2016, Associate Professor since 2016, tenured since 2017).
He obtained secondary Bachelor degrees in Physics and Computer Science in Technion, Haifa at 2017.
