Family of scalar-nonmetricity theories of gravity

Mihkel Rünkla, Ott Vilson

We extend the class of recently formulated scalar-nonmetricity theories by coupling a five-parameter nonmetricity scalar to a scalar field and considering a mixed kinetic term betw…

Nonmetricity formulation of general relativity and its scalar-tensor extension

Laur Järv, Mihkel Rünkla, Margus Saal +1

Einstein's celebrated theory of gravitation can be presented in three forms: general relativity, teleparallel gravity, and the rarely considered before symmetric teleparallel gravi…

Post-Newtonian parameter for multiscalar-tensor gravity with a general potential

Manuel Hohmann, Laur Jarv, Piret Kuusk +2

We compute the parametrized post-Newtonian parameter in the case of a static point source for multiscalar-tensor gravity with completely general nonderivative couplings and pot…

Invariant slow-roll parameters in scalar-tensor theories

Piret Kuusk, Mihkel Rünkla, Margus Saal +1

A general scalar-tensor theory can be formulated in different parametrizations that are related by a conformal rescaling of the metric and a scalar field redefinition. We compare f…

The formalism of invariants in scalar-tensor and multiscalar-tensor theories of gravitation

Laur Jarv, Piret Kuusk, Margus Saal +1

We give a brief summary of the formalism of invariants in general scalar-tensor and multiscalar-tensor gravities without derivative couplings. By rescaling of the metric and repara…

Some remarks concerning invariant quantities in scalar-tensor gravity

Ott Vilson

The aim of the current paper is to clarify some aspects of the formalism used for describing the scalar-tensor gravity characterized by four arbitrary local functionals of the scal…

Invariant quantities in the multiscalar-tensor theories of gravitation

Piret Kuusk, Laur Jarv, Ott Vilson

The aim of the current paper is to study the multiscalar-tensor theories of gravity without derivative couplings. We construct a few basic objects that are invariant under a Weyl r…

Transformation properties and general relativity regime in scalar-tensor theories

Laur Jarv, Piret Kuusk, Margus Saal +1

We consider first generation scalar-tensor theories of gravitation in a completely generic form, keeping the transformation functions of the local rescaling of the metric and the s…

Parametrizations in scalar-tensor theories of gravity and the limit of general relativity

Laur Jarv, Piret Kuusk, Margus Saal +1

We consider a general scalar-tensor theory of gravity and review briefly different forms it can be presented (different conformal frames and scalar field parametrizations). We inve…

Invariant quantities in the scalar-tensor theories of gravitation

Laur Jarv, Piret Kuusk, Margus Saal +1

We consider the general scalar-tensor gravity without derivative couplings. By rescaling of the metric and reparametrization of the scalar field, the theory can be presented in dif…
