Abstract
This thesis addresses applications of topological invariants in the context of gravity, electromagnetism and complex systems. Specifically, in Chapters 3-8, different theories of gravity involving the Gauss–Bonnet term are discussed, as well as f(G) gravity, scalar-tensor theories and non-local theories. In all cases, after selecting viable models by symmetry considerations, field equation solutions are provided in cosmological and spherically symmetric backgrounds. In Chapter 9, basic foundations of Chern-Simons theory are reviewed, as in Chapters 10-13 the theory is then applied to the gravitational interaction, electromagnetism and complex biological systems. This latter application mainly aims to predict the effect of the induced mutations occurring in DNA/RNA sequences.
