The first part is devoted to the topic of quantum gravity and
string theories, mainly concerned with recent authoritative results
in the study of discretizations in classical and quantum general
relativity, non-commutative theories of gravity, (2+1)-dimensional
supergravity, and Berezin description of Kaehler quotients. The
field to particle transition problem is also considered.
The second part deals with cosmology and black holes. Here,
cosmological, inflationary, and braneworld scenarios are
investigated. Moreover, some scalar field models for the dark
matter content of the universe as well as new models of
protostellar collapse and fragmentation are presented. This part
includes also a study of de Sitter/Anti-de Sitter phase transition
for black holes, an understanding of hairy black holes and an
improvement of the no-hair theorem proof for the Proca field.
The third part is devoted to exact solutions, in particular
classical and quantum cosmological solutions in scalar-tensor
theories. Additionally, a discussion about conformally flat
axisymmetric spacetimes and some considerations on accelerated
expansion in scalar-tensor theories are presented.
Experimental and some mixed topics are included in the final part.
Among them is an experimental foundation of nonlocality and
superluminal signal velocity in photonic tunneling, a proposal for
testing the weak equivalence principle for charged particles in
space. Moreover, a possible new type of skewon field linked to
Maxwell theory is also presented, and an authoritative discussion
at the interface of quantum and gravitational realms.
