ECO-spotting: looking for extremely compact objects with bosonic fields

Vitor Cardoso, Caio F. B. Macedo, Kei-ichi Maeda +1

Black holes are thought to describe the geometry of massive, dark compact objects in the universe. To further support and quantify this long-held belief requires knowledge of possi…

Linear growth of structure in projected massive gravity

Yusuke Manita, Rampei Kimura

In the present paper, we investigate the linear growth of matter fluctuations based on a concrete model of the projected massive gravity, which is free of the Boulware-Deser ghost…

Primordial black hole formation from massless scalar isocurvature

Chul-Moon Yoo, Tomohiro Harada, Shin'ichi Hirano +2

We numerically study the primordial black hole (PBH) formation by an isocurvature perturbation of a massless scalar field on super Hubble scales in the radiation-dominated universe…

Relativistic star perturbations in Horndeski theories with a gauge-ready formulation

Ryotaro Kase, Shinji Tsujikawa

We present a general framework for studying the relativistic star perturbations on a static and spherically symmetric background in full Horndeski theories. We take a perfect fluid…

Odd-parity stability of black holes in Einstein-Aether gravity

Shinji Tsujikawa, Chao Zhang, Xiang Zhao +1

In Einstein-Aether theory, we study the stability of black holes against odd-parity perturbations on a spherically symmetric and static background. For odd-parity modes, there are…

Non-oscillating vacuum states and the quantum homogeneity and isotropy hypothesis in Loop Quantum Cosmology

Beatriz Elizaga Navascués, Guillermo A. Mena Marugán, Santiago Prado

We study the compatibility of the quantum homogeneitiy and isotropy hypothesis (QHIH), proposed by Ashtekar and Gupt to restrict the choice of vacuum state for the cosmological per…

Gravitational and Gravitoscalar Thermodynamics

Shoichiro Miyashita

Gravitational thermodynamics and gravitoscalar thermodynamics with boundary geometry are investigated through the partition function, assuming that all Eucl…

Primordial perturbations in kinetically dominated regimes of general relativity and hybrid quantum cosmology

Beatriz Elizaga Navascués, Rafael Jiménez-Llamas, Guillermo A. Mena Marugán

Scalar fields with an energy density dominated by its kinetic part may have played a relevant role in the very early stages of the Universe. Compared to the standard inflationary p…

Spontaneous scalarization of charged stars

Masato Minamitsuji, Shinji Tsujikawa

We study static and spherically symmetric charged stars with a nontrivial profile of the scalar field in Einstein-Maxwell-scalar theories. The scalar field is coupled to a $U(1…

Analytical investigation of pre-inflationary effects in the primordial power spectrum: From General Relativity to hybrid Loop Quantum Cosmology

Beatriz Elizaga Navascués, Guillermo A. Mena Marugán

This work is an analytical study of the main differences between classical inflationary effects of a fast-roll regime and imprints of hybrid Loop Quantum Cosmology (LQC) on the pri…

Quantization ambiguities and the robustness of effective descriptions of primordial perturbations in hybrid Loop Quantum Cosmology

Beatriz Elizaga Navascués, Guillermo A. Mena Marugán

We study the imprint that certain quantization ambiguities may leave in effective regimes of the hybrid loop quantum description of cosmological perturbations. More specifically, i…
