A remarkably simple theory of 3d massive gravity

Marc Geiller, Karim Noui

We propose and study a new action for three-dimensional massive gravity. This action takes a very simple form when written in terms of connection and triad variables, but the conne…

Kinetic equation for Lifshitz scalar

Shinji Mukohyama, Yota Watanabe

Employing the method of Wigner functions on curved spaces, we study classical kinetic (Boltzmann-like) equations of distribution functions for a real scalar field with the Lifshitz…

Cosmological evolution in DHOST theories

Marco Crisostomi, Kazuya Koyama, David Langlois +2

In the context of Degenerate Higher-Order Scalar-Tensor (DHOST) theories, we study cosmological solutions and their stability properties. In particular, we explicitly illustrate th…

Conformal magnetic effect at the edge: a numerical study in scalar QED

M. N. Chernodub, V. A. Goy, A. V. Molochkov

Quantum polarization effects associated with the conformal anomaly in a static magnetic field background may generate a transverse electric current in the vacuum. The current may b…

The Ogievetsky-Polubarinov massive gravity and the benign Boulware-Deser mode

Shinji Mukohyama, Mikhail S. Volkov

We present our analysis of the theory constructed in 1965 by Ogievetsky and Polubarinov (OP) -- the first ever theory of interacting massive gravitons. Its mass term is adjusted in…

Conformal Higher-Spin Gravity: Linearized Spectrum = Symmetry Algebra

Thomas Basile, Xavier Bekaert, Euihun Joung

The linearized spectrum and the algebra of global symmetries of conformal higher-spin gravity decompose into infinitely many representations of the conformal algebra. Their charact…
