Symmetries for Galileons and DBI scalars on curved space
Garrett Goon, Kurt Hinterbichler, Mark Trodden
We introduce a general class of four-dimensional effective field theories which include curved space Galileons and DBI theories possessing nonlinear shift-like symmetries. These ef…

General Embedded Brane Effective Field Theories
Garrett Goon, Kurt Hinterbichler, Mark Trodden
We present a new general class of four-dimensional effective field theories with interesting global symmetry groups. These theories arise from purely gravitational actions for (3+1…
