Black holes in higher-derivative gravity theories.
We study static spherically symmetric solutions of Einstein gravity plus an action polynomial in the Ricci scalar, R, of arbitrary degree, n, in arbitrary dimension, D. The global properties of all such solutions are derived by studying the phase space of field equations in the equivalent theory of gravity coupled to a scalar field, which is obtained by a field redefinition and conformal transf...
متن کاملBlack Hole Entropy for Two Higher Derivative Theories of Gravity
The dark energy issue is attracting the attention of an increasing number of physicists all over the world. Among the possible alternatives to explain what as been named the “Mystery of the Millennium” are the so-called Modified Theories of Gravity. A crucial test for such models is represented by the existence and (if this is the case) the properties of their black hole solutions. Nowadays, to...
متن کاملOn Junction Conditions in Gravity Theories with Higher Curvature Terms
We discuss the junction conditions in the context of the Randall-Sundrum model with the Gauss-Bonnet interaction. We consider the Z2 symmetric model where the brane is embedded in an AdS5 bulk, as well as a model without Z2 symmetry in which the brane (in this case called by tradition “shell”) separates two metrically different AdS5 regions. We show that the Israel junction conditions across th...
متن کاملHigher-Derivative Massive Fermion Theories
We propose and canonically quantize a generalization of the two-dimensional massive fermion theory described by a Lagrangian containing third-order derivatives. In our approach the mass term contains a derivative coupling. The quantum solution is expressed in terms of three usual fermions. Employing the standard bosonization scheme, the equivalent boson theory is derived. The results obtained a...
متن کاملWarped Phenomenology of Higher - Derivative Gravity ∗ †
We examine the phenomenological implications at colliders for the existence of higher-derivative gravity terms as extensions to the Randall-Sundrum model. Such terms are expected to arise on rather general grounds, e.g., from string theory. In 5-d, if we demand that the theory be unitary and ghost free, these new contributions to the bulk action are uniquely of the Gauss-Bonnet form. We demonst...
