An approach to compute quantum-gravity corrections to the scalar and tensorial power spectra of the inflationary perturbations is presented. The analysis of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation is performed by a decomposition of the wave function…
We propose a modified gravity theory by extending the Einstein-Hilbert action with an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar and the Kretschmann scalar invariants. The resulting modified Friedmann equations for a spatially flat FRW universe…
The Einstein-Hilbert worldspace action is used to investigate the dynamics of extended object. In the Robertson-Walker worldspace, this is seen to introduce a pressureless density which could contribute to dark matter. Such pressureless…
We determine the effect on the computational complexity of a conformal anomaly using the Complexity=Action prescription of the gauge/gravity correspondence. To allow the involvement of said anomaly, we extend previous studies to include…
In any quantum theory of gravity we do expect corrections to Einstein gravity to occur. Yet, at fundamental level, it is not apparent what the most relevant corrections are. We argue that the generic curvature square corrections present in…
We compute the Hamiltonian surface charges of gravity for a family of conservative boundary conditions, that include Dirichlet, Neumann, and York's mixed boundary conditions defined by holding fixed the conformal induced metric and the…
The Hamiltonian formulation of conformally invariant Weyl-squared higher derivative theory teaches us that conformal symmetry is expressed through particular first class constraints related to the absence of the three-metric determinant and…
We study the quantum-gravitational corrections to the power spectrum of a gauge-invariant inflationary scalar perturbations in a closed model of a universe. We consider canonical quantum gravity as an approach to quantizing gravity. This…
We study the action growth rate in the Wheeler-DeWitt (WDW) patch for a variety of $D\ge 4$ black holes in Einstein gravity that are asymptotic to the anti-de Sitter spacetime, with spherical, toric and hyperbolic horizons, corresponding to…
The Einstein-Maxwell-Axion-Dilaton (EMAD) theories, based on the Gubser-Rocha (GR) model, are very interesting in holographic calculations of strongly correlated systems in the condensed matter physics. Due to the presence of spatially…
A unifying theory is put forward that entropy is equal to action. The crowning derivation is based on information theoretic methods and uses our hypothesis that "particles move via the discrete Bernoulli Process." While this hypothesis…
A calculation by Jacobson [1] strongly implies that the field equations which describe gravity are emergent phenomena. In this paper, the method is extended to the case of a non-commutative spacetime. By making use of a non-commutative…
We investigate the first law of complexity proposed in arXiv:1903.04511, i.e., the variation of complexity when the target state is perturbed, in more detail. Based on Nielsen's geometric approach to quantum circuit complexity, we find the…
We present a complete discussion of the boundary term in the action functional of general relativity when the boundary includes null segments in addition to the more usual timelike and spacelike segments. We confirm that ambiguities appear…
Reinforced random walks are random walks on graphs whose transition probabilities along edges from a vertex are proportional to the weights of those edges, but where the weight of an edge evolves in a way that depends on the past traversals…
Recent investigations [arXiv:2111.02429][arXiv:2210.09647][arXiv:2304.05453] have introduced an infinite class of novel gravitational observables in Asymptotically anti-de Sitter (AdS) space that reside on codimension-one or -zero regions…
We show that that four dimensional conformal gravity plus a simple Neumann boundary condition can be used to get the semiclassical (or tree level) wavefunction of the universe of four dimensional asymptotically de-Sitter or Euclidean…
We study cosmologies in modified theories of gravity considering Lagrangian density $f(R)$ which is a polynomial function of scalar curvature ($R$) in the Einstein-Hilbert action in vacuum. The field equation obtained from the modified…
In this paper, we use Born-Infeld black holes to test two recent holographic conjectures of complexity, the "Complexity = Action" (CA) duality and "Complexity = Volume 2.0" (CV) duality. The complexity of a boundary state is identified with…
The noncommutative spectral action extends our familiar notion of commutative spaces, using the data encoded in a spectral triple on an almost commutative space. Varying a rather simple action, one can derive all of the standard model of…
