An Ignoble Approach to Large Field Inflation
Nemanja Kaloper, Albion Lawrence, Lorenzo Sorbo
We study an inflationary model developed by Kaloper and Sorbo, in which the inflaton is an axion with a sub-Planckian decay constant, whose potential is generated by mixing with a…
Can you hear the shape of dual geometries?
Richard Eager, Michael Gary, Matthew M. Roberts
We compute the sub-leading terms in the Tian-Yau-Zelditch asymptotic expansion of the partition function for dual giant gravitons on AdS5 L5 and provide a bulk interpretat…
Cosmic Acceleration and the Helicity-0 Graviton
Claudia de Rham, Gregory Gabadadze, Lavinia Heisenberg +1
We explore cosmology in the decoupling limit of a non-linear covariant extension of Fierz-Pauli massive gravity obtained recently in arXiv:1007.0443. In this limit the theory is a…
Resummation of Massive Gravity
Claudia de Rham, Gregory Gabadadze, Andrew J. Tolley
We construct four-dimensional covariant non-linear theories of massive gravity which are ghost-free in the decoupling limit to all orders. These theories resum explicitly all the n…
Massive Gravity: Exorcising the Ghost
Lasma Alberte, Ali H. Chamseddine, Viatcheslav Mukhanov
We consider Higgs massive gravity [1,2] and investigate whether a nonlinear ghost in this theory can be avoided. We show that although the theory considered in [10,11] is ghost fre…
Unitarity Check in Gravitational Higgs Mechanism
Lasha Berezhiani, Mehrdad Mirbabayi
The effective field theory of massive gravity had long been formulated in a generally covariant way arXiv:hep-th/0210184. Using this formalism, it has been found recently that ther…
