Multigravity and the cosmological constant

The possibility of flat metric solutions in the presence of arbitrary, in particular, Planck mass sized cosmological constants is investigated within multigravity theory, the ghost-free theory of $(N+1)$ rank-2 tensor fields comprising one massless and $N$ massive spin-2 fields. It is found that, indeed, for any $N$, no matter how large, no flat solutions exist without fine-tuning parameters in the potential. For an infinite number of fields, however, flat solutions exist within an infinite-dimensional parameter space. Such a ground state may be viewed as a collective state that cannot be approximated by any finite $N$.
