Inflaton Dynamics in Higher-Derivative Scalar-Tensor Theories of Gravity
Sam E. Brady, Katy Clough, Pau Figueras +1
During inflation, higher derivative terms in the gravitational action may play a significant role. Building on new stable formulations of four-derivative scalar-tensor theories, we…

Stable non-linear evolution in regularised higher derivative effective field theories
Pau Figueras, Áron D. Kovács, Shunhui Yao
We study properties of a recently proposed regularisation scheme to formulate the initial value problem for general (relativistic) effective field theories (EFTs) with arbitrary hi…

Well-posed initial value formulation of general effective field theories of gravity
Pau Figueras, Aaron Held, Áron D. Kovács
We provide a proof that all polynomial higher-derivative effective field theories of vacuum gravity admit a well-posed initial value formulation when augmented by suitable regulari…
