Implications of the Holst term in a theory with torsion
Flavio Bombacigno, Giovanni Montani
We analyze a modified theory of gravity in the Palatini formulation, when an Holst term endowed with a dynamical Immirzi field is included. We study the basic features of th…
Big Bounce cosmology for Palatini gravity with a Nieh-Yan term
Flavio Bombacigno, Giovanni Montani
We analyze the cosmological implementation of Palatini theories, constructed with a Nieh-Yan term and solved with respect to the torsion. We consider the relevant case of th…
Semi-classical and quantum analysis of the isotropic Universe in the polymer paradigm
Giovanni Montani, Claudia Mantero, Flavio Bombacigno +2
We analyse the semi-classical and quantum dynamics of the isotropic Universe in the framework of the Polymer Quantum mechanics, in order to implement a cut-off physics on the initi…
gravity with Torsion and the Immirzi field: signature for GW detection
Flavio Bombacigno, Giovanni Montani
We propose a Nieh-Yan extension of f (R) models in the presence of Immirzi field and the resulting theory is studied in the context of first order formalism. We claim as in our mod…
