The Lovelock gravity extends the theory of general relativity to higher dimensions in such a way that the field equations remain of second order. The theory has many constant coefficients with no a priori meaning. Nevertheless it is…

We provide a Kingman-like Theorem for arbitrary finite measures and a version of Birkhoff's Theorem for bounded observable. As an application, we show that Birkhoff's limit exists for some continuous observable, in an example of Bowen.
Let $c$ be a characteristic form of degree $k$ which is defined on a Kaehler manifold of real dimension $m>2k$. Taking the inner product with the Kaehler form $\Omega^k$ gives a scalar invariant which can be considered as a generalized…
Lovelock gravity is a class of higher-derivative gravitational theories whose linearized equations of motion have no more than two time derivatives. Here, it is shown that any Lovelock theory can be effectively described as Einstein gravity…
