Massive spin-2 theories
Sarah Folkerts, Cristiano Germani, Nico Wintergerst
We give an introduction to massive spin-2 theories and the problem of their non-linear completion. We review the Boulware-Deser ghost problem and two ways to circumvent classic no-…

On the many saddle points description of quantum black holes
Cristiano Germani
Considering two dimensional gravity coupled to a CFT, we show that a semiclassical black hole can be described in terms of two Liouville theories matched at the horizon. The black…

On Ghost-free Supersymmetric Galileons
Fotis Farakos, Cristiano Germani, Alex Kehagias
We present consistent supersymmetric theories invariant under the generalization of the Galilean shift symmetry to superspace. These theories are constructed via the…
