This work is motivated by an intention to make the theory of bigravity more comprehensible. Bigravity is a modification of the General Relativity (GR), maybe even the most natural one because it is based on the equivalence principle. The…
We show that all W-gravity actions can be easilly constructed and understood from the point of view of the Hamiltonian formalism for the constrained systems. This formalism also gives a method of constructing gauge invariant actions for…
The Hamiltonian formalism of bigravity and massive gravity is studied here for the general form of the interaction potential of two metrics. In the theories equipped with two spacetime metrics it is natural to use the Kuchar approach,…
In the Hamiltonian language we provide a study of flat-space cosmology in bigravity and massive gravity constructed mostly with de Rham, Gabadadze, Tolley (dRGT) potential. It is demonstrated that the Hamiltonian methods are powerful not…
In this short note we perform the Hamiltonian analysis of bimetric gravity with one particular form of potential between two metrics. We find that this theory have eight secondary constraints. We identify four constraints that are the first…
We find covariant canonical formalism for Weyl invariant gravity. We discuss constraint structure of this theory and its gauge fixed form.
In this work we study the theory of linearized gravity via the Hamilton-Jacobi formalism. We make a brief review of this theory and its Lagrangian description, as well as a review of the Hamilton-Jacobi approach for singular systems. Then…
A generalised canonical formulation of gravity is devised for foliations of spacetime with codimension $n\ge1$. The new formalism retains n-dimensional covariance and is especially suited to 2+2 decompositions of spacetime. It is also…
In this short note we perform canonical analysis of Eddington gravity using L. Faddeev and Jackiw formalism. We demonstrate that resulting canonical action has the same form as General Relativity canonical action which proves an equivalence…
This paper is devoted to the Hamiltonian analysis of bimetric gravity in vierbein formulation. We identify all constraints and determine their nature. We also show an existence of additional constraint so that the scalar mode can be…
We summarise a recently introduced general canonical formulation of discrete systems which is fully equivalent to the covariant formalism. This framework can handle varying phase space dimensions and is applied to simplicial gravity in…
We develop Hamiltonian formalism for Lagrange Multiplier Modified Gravity. We further calculate the Poisson brackets between constraints and we show that they coincide with the algebra of constraints in Hamiltonian formulation of General…
Following the method of Buchbinder and Lyahovich, we carry out a canonical formalism for a higher-curvature gravity in which the Lagrangian density ${\cal L}$ is given in terms of a function of the salar curvature $R$ as ${\cal…
The most common physical formalisms are the Lagrangian formalism and the Hamiltonian formalism. From the superficial point of view, they are one and the same, but rewritten in other terms. However, it seems that the Hamiltonian formalism…
We study Born-Infeld inspired gravity in covariant canonical formalism. We determine corresponding Hamiltonian and equations of motion.
In this paper we continue the study of the Hamiltonian formalism of the healthy extended Horava-Lifshitz gravity. We find the constraint structure of given theory and argue that this is the theory with the second class constraints. Then we…
We extend the geometric Hamilton-Jacobi formalism for hamiltonian mechanics to higher order field theories with regular lagrangian density. We also investigate the dependence of the formalism on the lagrangian density in the class of those…
We analyze Born-Infeld inspired gravity in Palatini formulation in the framework of covariant canonical formalism. We determine covariant Hamiltonian and corresponding equations of motion.
An alternative version of Hamiltonian formalism for higher-derivative theories is presented. It is related to the standard Ostrogradski approach by a canonical transformation. The advantage of the approach presented is that the Lagrangian…
In this short note we perform covariant Hamiltonian analysis of F(R)-gravity.
