Applied foliated conformal Carroll symmetries
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Patrick Concha, Octavio Fierro +2
We apply the conformal compensating technique for constructing matter couplings to conformal scalars on a -dimensional foliated conformal Carroll manifold dividing the tangent s…

Neutron stars in 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity
Alejandro Saavedra, Octavio Fierro, Michael Gammon +2
Since the derivation of a well-defined limit for 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (4DEGB) gravity coupled to a scalar field, there has been considerable interest in testing it as a…

A Conformal Approach to Carroll Gravity
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Patrick Concha, Octavio Fierro +2
We show how to take the first step in the conformal program for constructing general matter couplings to Carroll gravity. In particular, we couple a single massless electric/magnet…
