We obtain the complete theory of Newton-Cartan gravity in a curved spacetime by considering the large $c$ limit of the vielbein formulation of General Relativity. Milne boosts originate from local Lorentzian transformations, and the special cases of torsionless and twistless torsional geometries are explained in the context of the larger locally Lorentzian theory. We write the action for Newton-Cartan fields in the first order Palatini formalism, and the large $c$ limit of the Einstein equations. Finally, we obtain the generalised Eisenhart-Duval lift of the metric that plays an important role in non-relativistic holography.

We provide an exact mapping between the Galilian gauge theory, recently advocated by us cite{BMM1, BMM2, BM}, and the Poincare gauge theory. Applying this correspondence we provide a vielbein approach to the geometric formulation of Newtons gravity where no ansatze or additional conditions are required.

We consider a static self-gravitating perfect fluid system in Lovelock gravity theory. For a spacial region on the hypersurface orthogonal to static Killing vector, by the Tolmans law of temperature, the assumption of a fixed total particle number inside the spacial region, and all of the variations (of relevant fields) in which the induced metric and its first derivatives are fixed on the boundary of the spacial region, then with the help of the gravitational equations of the theory, we can prove a theorem says that the total entropy of the fluid in this region takes an extremum value. A converse theorem can also be obtained following the reverse process of our proof. We also propose the definition of isolation quasi-locally for the system and explain the physical meaning of the boundary conditions in the proof of the theorems.

We study the gravitomagnetism in the Scalar-Vector-Tensor theory or Moffats Modified theory of Gravity(MOG). We compute the gravitomagnetic field that a slow-moving mass distribution produces in its Newtonian regime. We report that the consistency between the MOG gravitomagnetic field and that predicted by the Einsteins gravitional theory and measured by Gravity Probe B, LAGEOS and LAGEOS 2, and with a number of GRACE and Laser Lunar ranging measurements requires $|alpha| < 0.0013$. We provide a discussion.
We investigate inflation and its scalar perturbation driven by a massive scalar field in the unimodular theory of gravity. We introduce a parameter $xi$ with which the theory is invariant under general unimodular coordinate transformations. When the unimodular parameter is $xi=6$, the classical picture of inflation is reproduced in the unimodular theory because it recovers the background equations of the standard theory of general relativity. We show that for $xi=6$, the theory is equivalent to the standard theory of general relativity at the perturbation level. Unimodular gravity constrains the gauge degree of freedom in the scalar perturbation, but the perturbation equations are similar to those in general relativity. For $xi eq 6$, we derive the power spectrum and the spectral index, and obtain the unimodular correction to the tensor-to-scalar ratio. Depending on the value of $xi$, the correction can either raise or lower the value of the tensor-to-scalar ratio.

The general relativistic theory of elasticity is reviewed from a Lagrangian, as opposed to Eulerian, perspective. The equations of motion and stress-energy-momentum tensor for a hyperelastic body are derived from the gauge-invariant action principle first considered by DeWitt. This action is a natural extension of the action for a single relativistic particle. The central object in the Lagrangian treatment is the Landau-Lifshitz radar metric, which is the relativistic version of the right Cauchy-Green deformation tensor. We also introduce relativistic definitions of the deformation gradient, Green strain, and first and second Piola-Kirchhoff stress tensors. A gauge-fixed description of relativistic hyperelasticity is also presented, and the nonrelativistic theory is derived in the limit as the speed of light becomes infinite.
