Mimetic Gravity: A Review of Recent Developments and Applications to Cosmology and Astrophysics [PDF]
Advances in High Energy Physics, 2017 Mimetic gravity is a Weyl-symmetric extension of General Relativity, related to the latter by a singular disformal transformation, wherein the appearance of a dust-like perfect fluid can mimic cold dark matter at a cosmological level.

Black hole solutions in mimetic Born-Infeld gravity [PDF]
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2018 The vacuum, static, and spherically symmetric solutions in the mimetic Born-Infeld gravity are studied. The mimetic Born-Infeld gravity is a reformulation of the Eddington-inspired-Born-Infeld (EiBI) model under the mimetic approach.

René Girard and Mimetic Theory
St Andrews Encyclopaedia of Theology, 2023 René Girard is not a theologian; he is best described as fundamental anthropologist and culture theorist. His versatile system of hermeneutical and heuristic thinking is known to its author as ‘the Mimetic Theory’. Girardian ‘mimesis’ denotes, in

Mimetic Tradition and the Critical Theory
Selçuk Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Dergisi, 2018 Mimesis as a concept essentially refers to the basic principle that art, and therefore the artist, copies nature. In other words, the mimetic theory of art is particularly based upon the assumption that any form of representative arts is a copy of nature.

Rene Girard and the phenomenology of mimetic desire [PDF]
Studia z Teorii Wychowania, 2023 René Girard has been critiqued for failing to ground his theory of mimetic desire in a discursive and philosophically robust framework. In order to meet this objection, I argue that René Girard’s theory of mimetic desire can be successfully motivated by ...

Nuclear Physics B, 2023 Recently, the mimetic gravitational theory has gained much attention in the frame of cosmology as well as in the domain of astrophysics. In this study, we show that in the frame of mimetic gravitation theory we are not able to derive an isotropic model ...

René Girard’s concept of mimetic desire, scapegoat mechanism and biblical demystification
Seminare, 2022 This article provides an overview of René Girard’s concept of mimetic desire, scapegoat mechanism and biblical demystification. It also attempts to explain the basic notions of his anthropology and to contextualize them in relation to the conceptions of

Extensions of two-field mimetic gravity
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 Two-field mimetic gravity was recently realized by looking at the singular limit of the conformal transformation between the auxiliary metric and the physical metric with two scalar fields involved.

Consistency between black hole and mimetic gravity – Case of (2 + 1)-dimensional gravity
Physics Letters B, 2022 We show that the mimetic theory with the constraint gρσ∂ρϕ∂σϕ=1 cannot realize the black hole geometry with the horizon(s). To overcome such issue, we may change the mimetic constraint a little bit by ω(ϕ)gρσ∂ρϕ∂σϕ=−1, where ω(ϕ) is a function of the ...
