Constitutive law of nonlocal gravity
arXiv:1903.04023 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.99.104013
Abstract
We analyze the structure of a recent nonlocal generalization of Einstein's theory of gravitation by Mashhoon et al. By means of a covariant technique, we derive an expanded version of the nonlocality tensor which constitutes the theory. At the lowest orders of approximation, this leads to a simplification which sheds light on the fundamental structure of the theory and may prove useful in the search for exact solutions of nonlocal gravity.
