Asymptotic freedom in Hořava-Lifshitz gravity.
We use the Wetterich equation for foliated spacetimes to study the renormalization group flow of projectable Hořava-Lifshitz gravity coupled to n Lifshitz scalars. Using novel results for anisotropic heat kernels, the matter-induced beta functions for the gravitational couplings are computed explicitly. The renormalization group flow exhibits an UV attractive anisotropic Gaussian fixed point wh...
متن کاملParticle Kinematics in Hořava-Lifshitz Gravity
We study the deformed kinematics of point particles in the Hořava theory of gravity. This is achieved by considering particles as the optical limit of fields with a generalized Klein-Gordon action. We derive the deformed geodesic equation and study in detail the cases of flat and spherically symmetric (Schwarzschild-like) spacetimes. As the theory is not invariant under local Lorenz transformat...
متن کاملStationary axisymmetric and slowly rotating spacetimes in Hořava-Lifshitz gravity.
Stationary, axisymmetric, and slowly rotating vacuum spacetimes in the Hořava-Lifshitz (HL) gravity are studied, and it is shown that, for any given spherical static vacuum solution of the HL theory (of any model, including the ones with an additional U(1) symmetry), there always exists a corresponding slowly rotating, stationary, and axisymmetric vacuum solution, which reduces to the former, w...
متن کاملParticle Motion with Hořava – Lifshitz type Dispersion Relations
Using super Hamiltonian formalism, we study the motion of particles whose dispersion relations are modified to incorporate Hořava – Lifshitz type anisotropic scaling symmetry. We find the following as consequences of this modified dispersion relation: (i) The speed of a charged particle under a constant electric field grows without bound and diverges. (ii) The speed of a particle falling toward...
متن کاملDetailed balance in Hǒrava–Lifshitz gravity
We study Hořava–Lifshitz gravity in the presence of a scalar field. When the detailed balance condition is implemented, a new term in the gravitational sector is added in order to maintain ultraviolet stability. The four-dimensional theory is of scalar-tensor type with a positive cosmological constant and gravity is non-minimally coupled with the scalar and its gradient terms. The scalar field ...
