Motivated by well-known obstacles to quantum gravity, I look for the most general geometrodynamical symmetries compatible with a reduced physical configuration space for metric gravity. I argue that they lead either to a completely static…
We present a class of modified-gravity theories which we call ultra-local models. We add a scalar field, with negligible kinetic terms, to the Einstein-Hilbert action. We also introduce a conformal coupling to matter. This gives rise to a…
In this paper, we generate an exact anisotropic gravastar model using gravitational decoupling technique through minimal geometric deformation in the framework of $f(\Re, {T}^{2})$ gravity. This novel model explains an ultra-compact stellar…
Clustering $\unicode{x2013}$ the tendency for neighbors of nodes to be connected $\unicode{x2013}$ quantifies the coupling of a complex network to its latent metric space. In random geometric graphs, clustering undergoes a continuous phase…
In this paper, it is shown that if a sequence of resistance metric spaces equipped with measures converges with respect to the local Gromov-Hausdorff-vague topology, and certain non-explosion and metric-entropy conditions are satisfied,…
We present a purely geometric renormalization scheme for metric spaces (including uncolored graphs), which consists of a coarse graining and a rescaling operation on such spaces. The coarse graining is based on the concept of…
We show that holographic renormalization of relativistic gravity in asymptotically Lifshitz spacetimes naturally reproduces the structure of gravity with anisotropic scaling: The holographic counterterms induced near anisotropic infinity…
We study the issue of length renormalization in the context of fully covariant gravity theories as well as non-relativistic ones such as Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity. The difference of their symmetry groups implies a relation between the…
We consider an infinite spatial inhomogeneous random graph model with an integrable connection kernel that interpolates nicely between existing spatial random graph models. Key examples are versions of the weight-dependent random connection…
In the minimal formulation of gravity with Lifshitz-type anisotropic scaling, the gauge symmetries of the system are foliation-preserving diffeomorphisms of spacetime. Consequently, compared to general relativity, the spectrum contains an…
We analyze the electromagnetic-gravity interaction in a pure Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz framework. To do so we formulate the Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity in $4+1$ dimensions and perform a Kaluza-Klein reduction to $3+1$ dimensions. We use this…
We consider the problem of defining localized subsystems in gauge theory and gravity. Such systems are associated to spacelike hypersurfaces with boundaries and provide the natural setting for studying entanglement entropy of regions of…
A relation between geometric phases and criticality of spin chains is established. As a result, we show how geometric phases can be exploited as a tool to detect regions of criticality without having to undergo a quantum phase transition.…
This work revolves around the rigorous asymptotic analysis of models in nonlocal hyperelasticity. The corresponding variational problems involve integral functionals depending on nonlocal gradients with a finite interaction range $\delta$,…
An anisotropic model describing gravity--vector gauge coupling at all energy scales is presented. The starting point is the 4+1 dimensional non--projectable Ho\v{r}ava--Lifshitz gravity theory subject to a geometrical restriction.…
We study hyperbolic mappings depending on a parameter $\varepsilon $. Each of them has an invariant Cantor set. As $\varepsilon $ tends to zero, the mapping approaches the boundary of hyperbolicity. We analyze the asymptotics of the gap…
We study spontaneous gauge symmetry breaking and the Higgs mechanism in nonlocal field theories. Motivated by the level truncated action of string field theory, we consider a class of nonlocal field theories with an exponential factor of…
We introduce the general N=1 gauge theory superconformally coupled to supergravity. The theory has local SU(2,2|1) symmetry and no dimensional parameters. The superconformal origin of the Fayet-Iliopoulos terms is clarified. The phase of…
A cosmologically viable hypergeometric model in the modified gravity theory $f(R)$ is found from the need for asintoticity towards $\Lambda$CDM, the existence of an inflection point in the $f(R)$ curve, and the conditions of viability given…
The kinematical phase space of classical gravitational field is flat (affine) and unbounded. Because of this, field variables may tend to infinity leading to appearance of singularities, which plague Einstein's theory of gravity. The…
