The Hamiltonian formalism of bigravity and massive gravity is studied here for the general form of the interaction potential of two metrics. In the theories equipped with two spacetime metrics it is natural to use the Kuchar approach,…
In this short note we perform the Hamiltonian analysis of bimetric gravity with one particular form of potential between two metrics. We find that this theory have eight secondary constraints. We identify four constraints that are the first…
The tetrad approach is used to resolve the matrix square root appearing in the dRGT potential. Constraints and their algebra are derived for the minimal case. It is shown that the number of gravitational degrees of freedom corresponds to…
In the Hamiltonian language we provide a study of flat-space cosmology in bigravity and massive gravity constructed mostly with de Rham, Gabadadze, Tolley (dRGT) potential. It is demonstrated that the Hamiltonian methods are powerful not…
We investigate a large class of gravity theories that respect spatial covariance, and involve kinetic terms for both the spatial metric and the lapse function. Generally such kind of theories propagate four degrees of freedom, one of which…
We perform the Hamiltonian analysis of general bimetric gravity. We determine four first class constraints that are generators of the diagonal diffeomorphism. We further analyze the remaining constraints and we present an evidence that…
We study the Hamiltonian structure of tri-gravity and four-gravity in the framework of ADM decomposition of the corresponding metrics. Hence we can deduce the general structure of the constraint system of multi-gravity. We will show it is…
Using the metric formalism, we study the derivative mixings of spin-2 fields in massive bi-Gravity. Necessary (but not sufficient) criteria are given for such mixings to be ghost free. Examples satisfying those criteria are studied and it…
We consider higher derivative supergravities that are dual to ghost-free $N=1$ supergravity theories in the Einstein frame. The duality is implemented by deforming the K\"ahler function, and/or the superpotential, to include nonlinear…
We show that the reality conditions to be imposed on Ashtekar variables to recover real gravity can be implemented as second class constraints a la Dirac. Thus, counting gravitational degrees of freedom follows accordingly. Some constraints…
We construct the Hamiltonian formalism of bigravity for the potential of a general form. We find conditions on this potential and prove that under these conditions the formalism is equivalent to the one constructed with the celebrated…
Two different Hamiltonian formulations of the metric gravity are discussed and applied to describe a free gravitational field in the $d$ dimensional Riemann space-time. Theory of canonical transformations, which relate equivalent…
We analyze the Hamiltonian structure of a general theory of bi-gravity where the interaction term is a scalar function of the form $ V(\mathcal{X}^{n}) $ where $ \mathcal{X} $ may be $\sqrt{g^{-1}f} $ or $ g^{-1}f $. We give necessary…
We propose and study a new first order version of the ghost-free massive gravity. Instead of metrics or tetrads, it uses a connection together with Plebanski's chiral 2-forms as fundamental variables, rendering the phase space structure…
A general approach to description of multigravity models in D-dimensional space-time is presented. Different possibilities of generalization of the invariant volume are given. Then a most general form of the interaction potential is…
We construct four-dimensional covariant non-linear theories of massive gravity which are ghost-free in the decoupling limit to all orders. These theories resum explicitly all the nonlinear terms of an effective field theory of massive…
Ghost-free bimetric theory can describe gravity in the presence of an extra spin-2 field. We study certain aspects of dynamics in this theory: (1) It is shown that if either of the metrics is an Einstein solution then the other is always…
We propose an explicit non-linear realization of massive gravity, which relies on the introduction of a spurious compact extra dimension, on which we impose half-Newmann and half-Dirichlet boundary conditions. At the linearized level, we…
We analyze the ghost issue in the recently proposed models of non-linear massive gravity in the ADM formalism. We show that, in the entire two-parameter family of actions, the Hamiltonian constraint is maintained at the complete non-linear…
We show that the strong self-interaction of the scalar polarization of a massive graviton can be understood in terms of the propagation of an extra ghost-like degree of freedom, thus relating strong coupling to the sixth degree of freedom…
