We find constant scalar curvature Type-N and Type-D solutions in all higher curvature gravity theories with actions of the form f(Ricci) that are built on the Ricci tensor, but not on its derivatives. In our construction, these higher…
We exploit an interpretation of gravity as the symmetry broken phase of a de Sitter gauge theory to construct new solutions to the first order field equations. The new solutions are constructed by performing large $Spin(4,1)$ gauge…

We have constructed gravity solutions by breaking the Lorentzian symmetry to its subgroup, which means there is Galilean symmetry but without the rotational and boost invariance. This solution shows anisotropic behavior along both the…
We determine the class of $p$-forms $F$ which possess vanishing scalar invariants (VSI) at arbitrary order in a $n$-dimensional spacetime. Namely, we prove that $F$ is VSI if and only if it is of type N, its multiple null direction $l$ is…
We find the most general algebraic type N solution with non-vanishing scalar curvature, which comprises all type N solutions of new massive gravity in three dimensions. We also give the special forms of this solution, which correspond to…

The topological theory and the Volterra process are key tools for the classification of defects in Condensed Mater Physics. We employ the same methods to classify the 2D defects of a 4D maximally symmetric spacetime. These \textit{cosmic…
