We study the evolution of cosmological perturbations generated during de Sitter inflation in the singleton gravity theory. This theory is composed of a dipole ghost pair in addition to tensor. We obtain the singleton power spectra which…
Respecting the group theoretical approach, it is discussed that the linear conformal gravity can be written in terms of a mixed symmetry tensor field of rank-3 \cite{binegar}. Following this path, related field equation was obtained in de…

We consider Einstein gravity with positive cosmological constant coupled with higher spin interactions and calculate Euclidean path integral perturbatively. We confine ourselves to the static patch of the 3 dimensional de Sitter space. This…
We present a comprehensive discussion of gravitational charges and radiation in four-dimensional asymptotically locally de Sitter (AldS) spacetimes. Such spacetimes have compact spatial sections and possess spacelike past and future…
In this paper we obtain the linear Weyl gravity in de Sitter background. Its linear form in five-dimensional ambient space notation has also been obtained. From the group theoretical point of view, we show that this conformal invariant…
