Gravity and induced matter on nearly Kähler manifolds

    https://doi.org/10.1142/S0217751X15500153Cited by:1 (Source: Crossref)

    We show that the conservation of energy–momentum tensor of a gravitational model with Einstein–Hilbert like action on a nearly Kähler manifold with the scalar curvature of a curvature-like tensor, is consistent with the nearly Kähler properties. In this way, the nearly Kähler structure is automatically manifested in the action as a induced matter field. As an example of nearly Kähler manifold, we consider the group manifold of R×II ×S3×S3 on which we identify a nearly Kähler structure and solve the Einstein equations to interpret the model. It is shown that the nearly Kähler structure in this example is capable of alleviating the well known fine tuning problem of the cosmological constant. Moreover, this structure may be considered as a potential candidate for dark energy.
