New Energy Definition for Higher Curvature Gravities
We propose a novel but natural definition of conserved quantities for gravity models quadratic and higher in curvature. Based on the spatial asymptotics of curvature rather than of metric, it avoids the GR energy machinery’s more egregious problems–such as zero energy “theorems” and failure in flat backgrounds – in this fourth-derivative realm. In D > 4, the present expression indeed correctly ...
متن کاملHigher-U(2, 2)-spin fields and higher-dimensional W-gravities: quantum AdS space and radiation phenomena
A physical and geometrical interpretation of previously introduced tensor operator algebras of U(2, 2) in terms of algebras of higher-conformal-spin quantum fields on the anti-de Sitter space AdS5 is provided. These are higher-dimensional W-like algebras and constitute a potential gauge guide principle towards the formulation of induced conformal gravities (Wess-Zumino-Witten-like models) in re...
متن کاملAll higher curvature gravities can be bootstrapped from their linearizations
We show that the full covariant versions of higher curvature order gravities, like that of GR itself, can be derived by self-coupling from their linear, flat space, versions. Separately, we comment on the initial version of the bootstrap.
متن کاملJ an 2 00 6 Constrained dynamics of universally coupled massive spin 2 - spin 0 gravities
The 2-parameter family of massive variants of Einstein’s gravity (on a Minkowski background) found by Ogievetsky and Polubarinov by excluding lower spins can also be derived using universal coupling. A Dirac-Bergmann constrained dynamics analysis seems not to have been presented for these theories, the Freund-Maheshwari-Schonberg special case, or any other massive gravity beyond the linear leve...
متن کاملPolycritical Gravities
We present higher-derivative gravities that propagate an arbitrary number of gravitons of different mass on (A)dS backgrounds. These theories have multiple critical points, at which the masses degenerate and the graviton energies are non-negative. For six derivatives and higher there are critical points with positive energy.
