We consider a Palatini variation on a general $N$-Dimensional second order, torsion-free dilaton gravity action and determine the resulting equations of motion. Consistency is checked by considering the restraint imposed due to invariance…
We present a simple "Wald-like" formula for gravitational energy about a constant curvature background spacetime. The formula is derived following the Abbott-Deser-Tekin approach for the definition of conserved asymptotic charges in…
Recent work has shown that couplings multiplying individual terms in a Lagrangian can be promoted to conserved charges by introducing scalar-gauge pairs. The gravitational constant, however, plays a qualitatively different role: $G^{-1}$…
In this manuscript, we will discuss the construction of covariant derivative operator in quantum gravity. We will find it is more perceptive to use affine connections more general than metric compatible connections in quantum gravity. We…
We study the conservative dynamics of spinless compact objects in a general effective theory of gravity which includes a metric and an arbitrary number of scalar fields, through $\mathcal{O}(G^{3})$. Departures from Einstein gravity, which…
The metric-affine variational principle is applied to generate teleparallel and symmetric teleparallel theories of gravity. From the latter is discovered an exceptional class which is consistent with a vanishing affine connection. Based on…
We extend the usual vacuum Metric-Affine $f(R)$ Gravity by supplementing it with all parity even quadratic invariants in torsion and non-metricity. As we show explicitly this supplementation drastically changes the status of the Theory…
We construct the conserved charge of generic gravity theories built on arbitrary contractions of the Riemann tensor (but not on its derivatives) for asymptotically (anti)-de Sitter spacetimes. Our construction is a generalization of the ADT…
In this article we derive the post-Newtonian limit of a class of teleparallel theories of gravity, where the action is a free function $L(T,X,Y,\phi)$ of the Torsion scalar $T$ and scalar quantities $X$ and $Y$ built from the dynamical…
In this paper, using the combined Lorentz-diffeomorphism symmetry, we find a general formula for quasi-local conserved charge of the covariant gravity theories in first order formalism of gravity. We simplify the general formula for…
The gauge approach to gravity based on the local Lorentz group with a general independent affine connection A_{\mu cd} is developed. We consider SO(1,3) gauge theory with a Lagrangian quadratic in curvature as a simple model of quantum…
We analyse the most general connection allowed by Einstein-Hilbert theory in Palatini formalism. We also consider a matter lagrangian independent of the affine connection. We show that any solution of the equation of the connection is…
The equivalence between metric and Palatini formalisms in f(R)-gravity can be achieved in the general context of theories with divergence free current. This equivalence is a necessary result of a symmetry which is included in a particular…
In any generally covariant theory of gravity, we show the relationship between the linearized asymptotically conserved current and its non-linear completion through the identically conserved current. Our formulation for conserved charges is…
The Palatini $f(|\hat{\Omega}|)$ gravity is a generalized theory of the Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld gravity, where $\Omega_{~N}^{K}\equiv\delta_{~N}^{K}+bg^{KL}R_{LN}(\Gamma)$ is an auxiliary tensor constructed with the spacetime metric…
We construct a quasi-local formalism for conserved charges in a theory of gravity in the presence of matter fields which may have slow falloff behaviors at the asymptotic infinity. This construction depends only on equations of motion and…
We consider a first order formalism for general relativity derived from the Holst action. This action is obtained from the standard Palatini-Hilbert form by adding a topological-like term and can be taken as the starting point for loop…
We obtain the conserved Abbott-Deser-Tekin (ADT)-{\it like} current for the Lanczos-Lovelock gravity for a diffeomorphism vector, which defines the horizon of a spacetime and, importantly, is not necessarily a Killing vector. As the…
The Palatini $f(R,T)$ gravity theory is considered. The standard Einstein-Hilbert action is replaced by an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar $R$ and of the trace $T$ of the energy-momentum tensor. In the Palatini approach, the Ricci…
We study transformations of the dynamical fields - a metric, a flat affine connection and a scalar field - in scalar-teleparallel gravity theories. The theories we study belong either to the general teleparallel setting, where no further…
