Losing the trace to find dynamical Newton or Planck constants
Pavel Jiroušek, Keigo Shimada, Alexander Vikman +1
We show that promoting the trace part of the Einstein equations to a trivial identity results in the Newton constant being an integration constant. Thus, in this formulation the Ne…

Axionic cosmological constant
Katrin Hammer, Pavel Jirousek, Alexander Vikman
We propose a novel, higher-derivative, Weyl-invariant and generally-covariant theory for the cosmological constant. This theory is a mimetic construction with gauge fields playing…

New Weyl-invariant vector-tensor theory for the cosmological constant
Pavel Jiroušek, Alexander Vikman
We introduce a new Weyl-invariant and generally-covariant vector-tensor theory with higher derivatives. This theory can be induced by extending the mimetic construction to vector f…
