    A Metric for Gravitational Collapse Around a Schwarzschild Black Hole
    (World Scientific Publishing, 2023) Erdem, Recai; Demirkaya, Betül; Gültekin, Kemal
    We consider the problem of gravitational collapse of a fluid under the effect of a small Schwarzschild black hole (e.g. a primordial one). We assume the fluid initially may be approximated by a uniform homogeneous dust. Starting from this configuration we obtain a class of metrics under some physically justified assumptions. We find that the metric we obtain includes the dust collapse as a subcase. After discussing some basic properties of the solution, we discuss the case of dust collapse in more detail. We find that the radial and tangential pressures outside the horizon may take positive or negative values depending on the values of the parameters.

    Finite Number of Kaluza-Klein Modes, All With Zero Masses
    (World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd, 2010) Erdem, Recai
    KaluzaKlein modes of fermions in a five-dimensional toy model are considered. The number of Kaluza-Klein modes that survive after integration over extra dimensions is finite in this space. Moreover, the extra dimensional piece of the kinetic part of the Lagrangian in this space induces no mass for the higher Kaluza-Klein modes on contrary to the standard lore. © 2010 World Scientific Publishing Company.

    Towards the Solution of Cosmological Constant and Zero Point Energy Problems Through Metric Reversal Symmetry
    (IOP Publishing Ltd., 2009) Erdem, Recai
    In this talk I review my studies on metric reversal symmetry and their further implications. The talk is mainly concentrated on the relevance of the metric reversal symmetry to the solutions of the cosmological constant and zero point energies. However the use of metric reversal symmetry to hide higher Kaluza-Klein modes at the scales larger than the size of extra dimensions is also discussed, and speculations on its possible relevance to Pauli-Villars and Lee-Wick model are also briefly mentioned.

    Higgs Field as the Gauge Field Corresponding To Parity in the Usual Space-Time
    (World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd, 1998) Erdem, Recai
    We find that the local character of field theory requires the parity degree of freedom of the fields to be considered as an additional discrete fifth dimension which is an artifact emerging due to the local description of space-time. Higgs field can be interpreted as the gauge field corresponding to this discrete dimension. Hence the noncommutative geometric derivation of the standard model follows as a manifestation of the local description of the usual space-time.
