Experiments find coherent information transfer through biological groups on length and time scales distinctly below those on which asymptotically correct hydrodynamic theories apply. We present here a new continuum theory of collective…

We derive consistent equations for gravitational wave oscillations in bigravity. In this framework a second dynamical tensor field is introduced in addition to General Relativity and coupled such that one massless and one massive linear…

In the model of quantum gravity proposed in JHEP 2020, 70 (2020), dynamical spacetime arises as a collective phenomenon of underlying quantum matter. Without a preferred decomposition of the Hilbert space, the signature, topology and…

The dynamics of sound in a fluid is intrinsically nonlinear. We derive the consequences of this fact for the analogue gravitational field experienced by sound waves, by first describing generally how the nonlinearity of the equation for…

Pure de Sitter, anti de Sitter, and orthogonal gauge theories in four-dimensional Euclidean spacetime are studied. It is shown that, if the theory is asymptotically free and a dynamical mass is generated, then an effective geometry may be…

It is a deceptively simple question to ask how acoustic disturbances propagate in a non--homogeneous flowing fluid. If the fluid is barotropic and inviscid, and the flow is irrotational (though it may have an arbitrary time dependence),…

A review of some errors made by the author and others in their search for quantum models of gravity in cosmological space-times that asymptote to de Sitter (dS) space in the future. The "static de Sitter Hamiltonian", which measures the…

We present a simple unifying gauge theoretical formulation of gravitational theories in two dimensional spacetime. This formulation includes the effects of a novel matter-gravity coupling which leads to an extended de Sitter symmetry…

We study non-minimal quantum fields in the gravitational field of 2-dimensional dilaton black holes and the de Sitter spacetime. We found that the Green functions for non-minimal massless fields in a particular class of dilaton black holes…

I demonstrate that soft graviton modes in de Sitter spacetimes are the Goldstone modes of the spontaneously broken asymptotic symmetry group of de Sitter space. I then show that any local measurement, including the effects of the…

Many different forms of the de Sitter metric in different coordinate systems are used in the general relativity literature. Two of them are the most common, the static form and the cosmological (exponentially expanding) form. The staticity…

We investigate sound wave propagation in a monatomic gas using a volume-based hydrodynamic model. In Physica A vol 387(24) (2008) pp6079-6094, a microscopic volume-based kinetic approach was proposed by analyzing molecular spatial…

The propagation of gravitational waves on the background of a nonperturbative vacuum of a spinor field is considered. It is shown that there are several distinctive features in comparison with the propagation of plane gravitational waves…

We construct the scalar and graviton propagator in quasi de Sitter space up to first order in the slow roll parameter $\epsilon\equiv -\dot{H}/H^2$. After a rescaling, the propagators are similar to those in de Sitter space with an…

We consider the quantization of the massless minimally coupled scalar field in de Sitter spacetime. The no-boundary Euclidean prescription naturally picks out the de Sitter invariant vacuum state of Kirsten and Garriga. We extend…

In this paper, the two-point function of linearized gravitons on de Sitter (dS) space is presented. Technically, respecting the dS ambient space notation, the field equation is given by the coordinate-independent Casimir operators of the de…

We show that a partially massless graviton can propagate on a large set of spacetimes which are not Einstein spacetimes. Starting from a recently constructed theory for a massive graviton that propagates the correct number of degrees of…

We present a simple procedure to obtain all de Sitter solutions in the ghost-free massive gravity theory by using the Gordon ansatz. For these solutions the physical metric can be conveniently viewed as describing a hyperboloid in 5D…

Gravitational waves are investigated in Intrinsic Time Geometrodynamics. This theory has a non-vanishing physical Hamiltonian generating intrinsic time development in our expanding universe, and four-covariance is explicitly broken by…

Pauli-Fierz approach to description of a massless spin-2 particle is investigated in the framework of 30-component first order relativistic wave equation theory on a curved space-time background. It is shown that additional gauge symmetry…
