The rise of a tensor instability in Eddington-inspired gravity

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2013-01-23 v1

Abstract

In this work an extension to Eddington's gravitational action is analyzed. We consider the tensor perturbations of a FLRW space-time in the Eddington regime in where the tensor mode is linearly unstable deep and the resulting modifications to Einstein regime are quite strong.
