A No-Go Theorem for Rotating Stars of a Perfect Fluid without Radial Motion in Projectable Horava–Lifshitz Gravity
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hořava–Lifshitz gravity has covariance only under the foliation-preserving diffeomorphism. This implies that the quantities on the constant-time hypersurfaces should be regular. In the original theory, the projectability condition, which strongly restricts the lapse function, is proposed. We assume that a star is filled with a perfect fluid with no-radial motion and that it has reflection symmetry about the equatorial plane. As a result, we find a no-go theorem for stationary and axisymmetric star solutions in projectable Hořava–Lifshitz gravity under the physically reasonable assumptions in the matter sector. Since we do not use the gravitational action to prove it, our result also works out in other projectable theories and applies to not only strong gravitational fields, but also weak gravitational ones.

Towards constraining of the Horava-Lifshitz gravities
Recently a renormalizable model of gravity has been proposed, which may be a UV completion of General Relativity (GR) or its infra-red modification. Although a generic vacuum of the theory is anti-de Sitter one, particulars limit of the theory allow for the Minkowski vacuum. In this limit post-Newtonian coefficients coincide with those of the pure General Relativity. Thus the deviations from th...
متن کاملGalaxy Rotation Curves in Covariant Hořava-Lifshitz Gravity
Using the multiplicity of solutions for the projectable case of the covariant extension of Hořava-Lifshitz gravity, we show that an appropriate choice for the auxiliary field allows for an effective description of galaxy rotation curves. This description is based on static and spherically symmetric solutions of covariant Hořava-Lifshitz gravity and does not require Dark Matter.

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...

In this paper, the solutions of the Gauss-Bonnet theory of gravity was proposed in the presence of a perfect fluid with thermodynamic pressure P and energy gravity ρ in n-dimension. Accordingly, perfect fluid tensor was regarded as energy-momentum tensor and the static and radiating solutions for the linear equation of state p = wρ was calculated. This solution contains all the solutions alread...
