Casimir Effect for Nonlocal Field Theories with Continuum Massive Modes
Mehdi Saravani
In this paper, we study the Casimir force for a class of Lorentzian nonlocal field theories. These theories include a continuum of massive excitations. In this regard, the effect o…

Causal structure of black holes in shift-symmetric Horndeski theories
Robert Benkel, Nicola Franchini, Mehdi Saravani +1
In theories with derivative (self-)interactions, the propagation of perturbations on nontrivial field configurations is determined by effective metrics. Generalized scalar-tensor t…

Continuum Modes of Nonlocal Field Theories
Mehdi Saravani
A class of nonlocal Lorentzian quantum field theories is introduced in arXiv:1502.01655 and arXiv:1411.6513, where the d'Alembertian operator is replaced by a non-analytic f…
