Conformal form-invariant parametrization of scalar-tensor gravity theories: A critical analysis
Israel Quiros, Amit Kumar Rao
Based on the recent result that, if the masses of timelike fields are point-dependent fields themselves, the action of matter fields is conformal form-invariant in its standard for…
The Unknown Face of Scalar-Tensor Gravitational Theories
Israel Quiros, Amit Kumar Rao
It has long been demonstrated that the vacuum scalar-tensor theory in the Jordan-frame Brans-Dicke parametrization is form-invariant under conformal transformations, provided that…
Revisiting local-scale invariant gravitational theory
Israel Quiros
We revisit the conformally coupled scalar gravitational theory. This is the simplest local-scale invariant theory of gravity which is linear in the curvature scalar. We demonstrate…
Local scale symmetry in non-riemannian geometry based gravitational theories and the role of the noether current
R. Gonzalez Quaglia, Israel Quiros
In this paper, we delve into the significance of local scale symmetry and the role of the associated noether current, within gravitational theories which are based in non-riemannia…
