Signatures of extra dimensions in gravitational waves
David Andriot, Gustavo Lucena Gómez
Considering gravitational waves propagating on the most general 4+N-dimensional space-time, we investigate the effects due to the N extra dimensions on the four-dimensional waves.…
Causality Constraints on Massive Gravity
Xián O. Camanho, Gustavo Lucena Gómez, Rakibur Rahman
The de Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley massive gravity admits pp-wave backgrounds on which linear fluctuations are shown to undergo time advances for all values of the parameters. The pertur…
The Elegance of Cohomological Methods
Gustavo Lucena Gómez
The BRST-Antifield reformulation of the deformation problem is reviewed in a self-contained and heuristic way. The focus is on finding all consistent interaction terms for fields p…
Aspects of Higher-Spin Theory with Fermions
Gustavo Lucena Gómez
The present thesis is divided into three parts. In Part I we address a problem within Higher-Spin Gauge Theory in dimension three: namely, that of computing the asymptotic symmetry…
Higher-Spin Theory - Part II: enter dimension three
Gustavo Lucena Gómez
These notes aim at providing a pedagogical and pedestrian introduction to the subject and assume no previous knowledge apart from that of general relativity. We shall first recall…
A dynamical inconsistency of Horava gravity
Marc Henneaux, Axel Kleinschmidt, Gustavo Lucena Gómez
The dynamical consistency of the non-projectable version of Horava gravity is investigated by focusing on the asymptotically flat case. It is argued that for generic solutions of t…
