We constrain the viable models of Horndeski gravity, written in its equivalent Generalised Galileon version, by resorting to the Witten positive energy theorem. We find that the free function $G_3(\phi, X)$ in the Lagrangian is constrained…
In shift-symmetric Horndeski theories, a static and spherically symmetric black hole can support linearly time-dependent scalar hair. However, it was shown that such a solution generically suffers from ghost or gradient instability in the…
In a recent paper, Hod has proven no-go theorem for asymptotically flat static regular boson stars. In the present work, we extend discussions to the gravity with a negative cosmological constant. We consider a scalar field vanishing at…
Genesis within the Horndeski theory is one of possible scenarios for the start of the Universe. In this model, the absence of instabilities is obtained at the expense of the property that coefficients, serving as effective Planck masses,…
We consider conditions for existence and stability of a static cosmological solution in quadratic gravity. It appears that such a solution for a Universe filled by only one type of perfect fluid is possible in a wide range of the equation…
We consider a novel Bounce Universe model constructed within the framework of Horndeski gravity. We have analyzed the bispectrum of primordial scalar perturbations and evaluated the corresponding non-Gaussianities for this specific model.…
The cosmological constant and its phenomenology remain among the greatest puzzles in theoretical physics. We review how modifications of Einstein's general relativity could alleviate the different problems associated with it that result…
We reconsider the issue of whether scalar-tensor theories can admit stable wormhole configurations supported by a non-trivial radial profile for the scalar field. Using a recently proposed effective theory for perturbations around static,…
Bouncing non-singular isotropic cosmological solutions are investigated in a simple model of scalar-tensor gravity. New families of such solutions are found and their properties are presented and analyzed using an effective potential as the…
We introduce a large family of homogeneous and isotropic cosmological solutions in quadratic gravity which are singularity-free at early and late times. This kind of smooth solutions only emerges beyond the unstable de Sitter branch…
We prove a No-Go theorem for singularity resolution in gravitational collapse: within any analytic gravitational theory, including general relativity and all theories with polynomial actions, quantum corrections introduced solely as…
The main difficulties in constructing a viable early Universe bouncing model are: to bypass the observational and theoretical \emph{no-go} theorem, to construct a stable non-singular bouncing phase and perhaps, the major concern of it is to…
We find spherically symmetric and static black holes in shift-symmetric Horndeski and beyond Horndeski theories. They are asymptotically flat and sourced by a non trivial static scalar field. The first class of solutions is constructed in…
A non-singular bouncing cosmology is generically obtained in loop quantum cosmology due to non-perturbative quantum gravity effects. A similar picture can be achieved in standard general relativity in the presence of a scalar field with a…
It is of interest to understand whether or not one can construct a classical field theory description of early cosmology which would be free of the initial singularity and stable throughout the whole evolution. One of the known…
We consider the classical equations of motion for a single Galileon field with generic parameters in the presence of non-relativistic sources. We introduce the concept of absolute stability of a theory: if one can show that a field at a…
We complete the proof of Weinberg's no-go theorem on the cosmological constant problem in classical gravity when the theory has a (global) scale symmetry. Stimulated with this proof, we explore a solution to the cosmological constant…
Under the same spirit of the Galileon-Horndeski theories and their more modern extensions, the generalized SU(2) Proca theory was built by demanding that its action may be free of the Ostrogradski's instability. Nevertheless, the theory…
We discuss a no-go theorem for the novel Ricci-inverse theory of modified gravity. By considering a static spherically symmetric matter distribution embedded within a de Sitter cosmology, we demonstrate that achieving a stable Sub-Horizon…
We review black hole and star solutions for Horndeski theory. For non-shift symmetric theories, black holes involve a Kaluza-Klein reduction of higher dimensional Lovelock solutions. On the other hand, for shift symmetric theories of…
