We revisit a model of composite gravity, in the form of a reparametrization invariant, non-polynomial, metric-independent action for scalar fields. Previously, the emergence of a composite massless spin 2 particle, the graviton, was…

We examine the field equations of a self-gravitating texture in low-energy superstring gravity, allowing for an arbitrary coupling of the texture field to the dilaton. Both massive and massless dilatons are considered. For the massless…
