In this Letter we present a general covariant modified theory of gravity in $D\!=\!4$ space-time dimensions which propagates only the massless graviton and bypasses the Lovelock's theorem. The theory we present is formulated in $D\!>\!4$…
From the mathematical side, nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations are usually investigated via variational methods, that cease to work in higher dimensions. This thesis tries to overcome this problem by focusing on spherically symmetric…

It is well known that the vacuum in the Einstein gravity, which is linear in the Riemann curvature, is trivial in the critical (2+1=3) dimension because vacuum solution is flat. It turns out that this is true in general for any odd critical…
