S-Duality and Categorical Gauge Theory

Javier Chagoya, A. D. López-Hernández, M. Sabido

In this work, we revisit abelian S-duality in the context of higher gauge theory. By using a specific crossed module a set of transformations arise, which are known as the "thin" a…

Strong lensing by GUP-improved black holes

Javier Chagoya, I. Díaz-Saldaña, Benito Rodríguez +1

We employ Bozza's method to calculate the deflection angle of light in the presence of the strong gravitational field generated by an improved Schwarzschild-like black hole whose m…

Compact stars in Einstein-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity: regular and divergent scalar field configurations

Roberto D. Alba Q., Javier Chagoya, Armando A. Roque

We investigate static, spherically symmetric solutions in Einstein-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity non-minimally coupled to a massless real scalar field, both in vacuum and in the pres…

Chern-Simons Inspired Massive Gravity

J. Chagoya, M. Sabido, A. Silva-García

In this work we propose a new 2+1 theory of gravity. We start with a modification of Chern-Simons 2+1 gravity. By introducing a vector field to the usual composition of the vie…

On the entropy of a stealth vector-tensor black hole

Javier Chagoya, I. Díaz-Saldaña, J. C. López-Domínguez +1

We apply Wald's formalism to a Lagrangian within generalised Proca gravity that admits a Schwarzschild black hole with a non-trivial vector field. The resulting entropy differs fro…
