Comments About Hamiltonian Formulation of Non-Linear Massive Gravity with Stuckelberg Fields

Abstract

We perform the Hamiltonian analysis of some form of the non-linear massive gravity action that is formulated in the Stuckelberg formalism. Following seminal analysis performed in arXiv:1203.5283 [hep-th] we find that this theory possesses one primary constraint which could eliminate one additional mode in this theory. We performed the explicit Hamiltonian analysis of two dimensional non-linear massive gravity and we found that this is theory free from the ghosts.

17 pages,v2:typos corrected, references added, v3. Rewritten the main body of the paper after publication of the paper arXiv:1203.5283 [hep-th] where the primary constraint was identified so that the conclusion is different from the first version of the paper. It is also version that is accepted for publication in JHEP. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1202.5899, arXiv:1204.2957, arXiv:1109.3052
