I explain in a simple and compact form the origin of the apparent loss of predictability inside the dRGT non-linear formulation of massive gravity. This apparent pathology was first reported by Kodama and the author when the stability of…

We study gravitational radiation for a positive value of the cosmological constant $\Lambda$. We rely on two battle-tested procedures: (i) We start from the same null coordinate system used by Bondi and Sachs for $\Lambda = 0$, but,…
In this work, we first obtain the linear form of the scalar self-force and then, the effect of self-force on the particle's trajectory is considered. In de Sitter space-time, within the classical approach, we consider this effect. Finally,…
