Fermions at finite density in the path integral approach
Alessandro Podo, Luca Santoni
We study relativistic fermionic systems in spacetime dimensions at finite chemical potential and zero temperature, from a path-integral point of view. We show how to properly…
Vanishing of Nonlinear Tidal Love Numbers of Schwarzschild Black Holes
Massimiliano Maria Riva, Luca Santoni, Nikola Savić +1
It is well known that asymptotically flat Schwarzschild black holes in general relativity in four spacetime dimensions have vanishing induced linear tidal response. We extend this…
Love Numbers for Rotating Black Holes in Higher Dimensions
Maria J. Rodriguez, Luca Santoni, Adam R. Solomon +1
We compute the tidal Love numbers and static response coefficients associated to several rotating black holes in higher dimensions, including Myers-Perry black holes, black rings,…
Dissipative Inflation via Scalar Production
Paolo Creminelli, Soubhik Kumar, Borna Salehian +1
We describe a new mechanism that gives rise to dissipation during cosmic inflation. In the simplest implementation, the mechanism requires the presence of a massive scalar field wi…
The connection between nonzero density and spontaneous symmetry breaking for interacting scalars
Alberto Nicolis, Alessandro Podo, Luca Santoni
We consider -symmetric scalar quantum field theories at zero temperature. At nonzero charge densities, the ground state of these systems is usually assumed to be a supe…
Black hole hairs in scalar-tensor gravity and the lack thereof
Lodovico Capuano, Luca Santoni, Enrico Barausse
Scalar-tensor theories are a natural alternative to general relativity, as they may provide an effective dark energy phenomenology on cosmological scales while passing local tests,…
