Supersymmetric backgrounds in (1 + 1) dimensions and inhomogeneous field theory
We find a (1 + 1)-dimensional metric solution for a background hosting various supersymmetric field theories with a single non-chiral real supercharge. This supersymmetric background is globally hyperbolic even though it contains a naked null singularity.

Superluminality in DHOST theory with extra scalar
We consider DHOST Ia theory interacting gravitationally with an additional conventional scalar field minimally coupled to gravity. At the linearized level of perturbations about cosmological background, we find that in the presence of a slowly rolling ...

Recursion in the classical limit and the neutron-star Compton amplitude
We study the compatibility of recursive techniques with the classical limit of scattering amplitudes through the construction of the classical Compton amplitude for general spinning compact objects.

Late time acceleration in Palatini gravity
We investigate the effect of the quadratic correction αR 2 and non-minimal coupling ξϕ 2 R on a quintessence model with an exponential potential V(ϕ) = M 4exp(−λϕ) in the Palatini formulation of gravity.

Brown-York charges at null boundaries
The Brown-York stress tensor provides a means for defining quasilocal gravitational charges in subregions bounded by a timelike hypersurface. We consider the generalization of this stress tensor to null hypersurfaces.

Conformal wave expansions for flat space amplitudes
The extended BMS algebra contains a conformal subgroup that acts on the celestial sphere as SO(1, 3). It is of interest to perform mode expansions of free fields in Minkowski spacetime that realize this symmetry in a simple way.

Generating cosmological perturbations in non-singular Horndeski cosmologies
We construct a concrete model of Horndeski bounce with strong gravity in the past. Within this model we show that the correct spectra of cosmological perturbations may be generated at early contracting epoch, with mild fine-tuning ensuring that the ...

It has recently been argued that half degrees of freedom could emerge in Lorentz and parity invariant field theories, using a non-linear Proca field theory dubbed Proca-Nuevo as a specific example.

Is Gravity Actually the Curvature of Spacetime? [PDF]
The Einstein equations, apart from being the classical field equations of General Relativity, are also the classical field equations of two other theories of gravity.

A massive, nonrelativistic scalar field in an expanding spacetime is usually approximated by a pressureless perfect fluid, which leads to the standard conclusion that such a field can play the role of cold dark matter.
