Using the fact that teleparallel gravity allows a separation between gravitation and inertia, explicit expressions for the gravitational and the inertial energy-momentum densities are obtained. It is shown that, like all other fields of…
For each relative $\operatorname{GL}(V)$-invariant tensor $I\in \Lambda^{p_1+1}V^{\vee}\otimes .. \otimes \Lambda^{p_n+1}V^{\vee}$ we construct a $\operatorname{GL}(V)$-invariant weighted differential form $\eta$ on $(\mathbb{P} V)^{n}$.…
We formulate a noncommutative description of topological half-flat gravity in four dimensions. BRST symmetry of this topological gravity is deformed through a twisting of the usual BRST quantization of noncommutative gauge theories. Finally…
We propose a topological inflation model in the framework of supergravity with $R$ invariance. This topological inflation model is not only free from the initial value problem of the inflaton field but also gives low reheating temperature…
Motivated by the two-dimensional massive gravity description of $T\overline{T}$ deformations, we propose a direct generalization in $d$ dimensions. Our methodology indicates that all terms up to order $d$ are present in the deformation. In…
We study $f(R,T)$ gravity, in which the curvature $R$ appearing in the gravitational Lagrangian is replaced by an arbitrary function of the curvature and the trace $T$ of the stress-energy tensor. We focus primarily on situations where $f$…
We propose a mechanism to give mass to tensor matter field which preserve the U(1) symmetry. We introduce a complex vector field that couples with the tensor in a topological term. We also analyze the influence of the kinetic terms of the…
A model in which the massive dilaton is introduced by minimally extending the two dimensional topological gravity is studied semi-classically. The theory is no longer topological because of the explicit Weyl scale symmetry breaking. Due to…
This paper discusses the somewhat unintuitive conjecture that many Lorentz-invariant many-particle models can be reinterpreted to satisfy the gtr field equations. It is shown that a careful remapping of coordinates yields a non-trivial…
We consider cosmological topologically massive gravity at the chiral point with positive sign of the Einstein-Hilbert term. We demonstrate the presence of a negative energy bulk mode that grows linearly in time. Unless there are physical…
Four-dimensional random geometries can be generated by statistical models with rank-4 tensors as random variables. These are dual to discrete building blocks of random geometries. We discover a potential candidate for a continuum limit in…
The ultra-relativistic (Carrollian) regime of gravity has recently emerged as a fertile framework for exploring holography, non-Lorentzian symmetries, and geometric limit of General Relativity. In this letter, we establish the presence of a…
Our investigation of differential conservation laws in Lagrangian field theory is based on the first variational formula which provides the canonical decomposition of the Lie derivative of a Lagrangian density by a projectable vector field…
We present a three-dimensional gravitational Born-Infeld theory which reduces to the recently found New Massive Gravity (NMG) at the quadratic level in the small curvature expansion and at the cubic order reproduces the deformation of NMG…
Matrix models with continuous symmetry are powerful tools for studying quantum gravity and holography. Tensor models have also found applications in holographic quantum gravity. Matrix models with discrete permutation symmetry have been…
The Bel-Robinson tensor $B_{\alpha\beta\mu\nu}$ gives a positive definite gravitational energy in the small sphere limit approximation. However, there is an alternative tensor $V_{\alpha\beta\mu\nu}$ which was proposed recently that offers…
A theory of gravity with torsion is examined in which the torsion tensor is constructed from the exterior derivative of an antisymmetric rank two potential plus the dual of the gradient of a scalar field. Field equations for the theory are…
The Bel-Robinson tensor contains many nice mathematical properties and its dominant energy condition is desirable for describing the positive gravitational energy. The dominant property is a basic requirement for the quasi-local mass, i.e.,…
A generalized version of the Einstein equations in the 4-index form, containing the Riemann tensor linearly, is derived. It is shown, that the gravitational energy-momentum density tensor outside a source is represented across the Weyl…
In three dimensions, there exist modifications of Einstein's gravity akin to the topologically massive gravity that describe massive gravitons about maximally symmetric backgrounds. These theories are built on the three-dimensional version…
