A scalar model of gravity is considered. We propose Lorentz invariant field equation $\square f = k\eta_{ab}f_{,a}f_{,b}$. The aim of this model is to get, approximately, Newton's law of gravity. It is shown that $f=-\frac 1k\ln(1-k\frac…

We study a free scalar field $\phi$ in a fixed curved background spacetime subject to a higher derivative field equation of the form $F(\Box)\phi =0$, where $F$ is a polynomial of the form $F(\Box)= \prod_i (\Box-m_i^2)$ and all masses…

The concept of a particle is ambiguous in quantum field theory. It is generally agreed that particles depend not only on spacetime, but also on coordinates used to parametrise spacetime points. One of us has in contrast proposed a…
A scalar field theory is constructed on an energy-momentum background of constant curvature. The generalization of the usual Feynamn rules for the flat geometry follows from the requirement of their covariance. The main result is that the…
