In this paper we study scalar perturbations of the metric for nonlinear $f(R)$ models. We consider the Universe at the late stage of its evolution and deep inside the cell of uniformity. We investigate the astrophysical approach in the case…
Euclidean dilaton gravity in two dimensions is studied exploiting its representation as a complexified first order gravity model. All local classical solutions are obtained. A global discussion reveals that for a given model only a…
In this paper it is reconciled how the metric in Minkowskian space-time gets transformed from one coordinates system to another after successive Lorentz transformations. And likewise this idea is generalized to achieve metric transformation…
This thesis is devoted to various aspects of electric-magnetic duality and its gravitational generalization, with an emphasis on the case of maximal supergravity. It is divided into three parts. In the first part, we review the the…
We investigate the critical behaviour of the two-dimensional Ising model defined on a curved surface with a constant negative curvature. Finite-size scaling analysis reveals that the critical exponents for the zero-field magnetic…
Many effective field theories describing gravity cannot arise from an underlying theory based on Riemann geometry or its extensions to include torsion and nonmetricity but may instead emerge from another geometry or may have a nongeometric…
On the space of Ising configurations on the 2-d square lattice, we consider a family of non Gibbsian measures introduced by using a pair Hamiltonian, depending on an additional inertial parameter $q$. These measures are related to the usual…
It is well-known that the Einstein-Hilbert action exhibits a projective invariance in metric-affine gravity, generated by a single vector (just like diffeomorphisms). However, this symmetry offers no protection against formulating…
New features of the generalized symmetries of generic two-dimensional dilaton models of gravity are presented and invariant gravity-matter couplings are introduced. We show that there is a continuum set of Noether symmetries, which contains…
We investigate $\beta$-functions of quantum gravity using dimensional regularisation. In contrast to minimal subtraction, a non-minimal renormalisation scheme is employed which is sensitive to power-law divergences from mass terms or…
In this note we construct a dual formulation of gravity where the main dynamical object is affine connection. We start with the well known first order Palatini formulation but in (Anti) de Sitter space instead of flat Minkowski space as a…
The theta expansion of the Seiberg-Witten map has ambiguities which can be removed by a gauge transformation and/or a field redefinition. In the context of emergent gravity such a field redefinition changes the emerging metric and requires…
Quantization of two-dimensional dilaton gravity coupled to conformal matter is investigated. Working in conformal gauge about a fixed background metric, the theory may be viewed as a sigma model whose target space is parameterized by the…
We analyse general form of theory with the dynamical determinant of metric. We show that due to the presence of general function of determinant that multiplies scalar curvature Hamiltonian constraint is either second class constraint or it…
A class of the $D=4$ gravity models describing a coupled system of $n$ Abelian vector fields and the symmetric $n \times n$ matrix generalizations of the dilaton and Kalb-Ramond fields is considered. It is shown that the Pecci-Quinn axion…
General 2d dilaton theories, containing spherically symmetric gravity and hence the Schwarzschild black hole as a special case, are quantized by an exact path integral of their geometric (Cartan-) variables. Matter, represented by minimally…
We review (and extend) the analysis of general theories of all interactions (gravity included) where the mass scales are due to dimensional transmutation. Quantum consistency requires the presence of terms in the action with four…
