Constraints on primordial curvature spectrum from primordial black holes and scalar-induced gravitational waves

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
The observational data of primordial black holes and scalar-induced gravitational waves can constrain the primordial curvature perturbation at small scales. We parameterize the primordial curvature perturbation by a broken power law form and find that it

Black Holes have Intrinsic Scalar Curvature

open access: yesReports in Advances of Physical Sciences, 2023
The scalar curvature R is invariant under isometric symmetries (distance invariance) associated with metric spaces. Gravitational Riemannian manifolds are metric spaces.

Rigidity of noncompact complete Bach-flat manifolds

open access: yes, 2010
Let $(M,g)$ be a noncompact complete Bach-flat manifold with positive Yamabe constant. We prove that $(M,g)$ is flat if $(M, g)$ has zero scalar curvature and sufficiently small $L_{2}$ bound of curvature tensor.

On some m-th root metrics

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics
The Ricci curvature in Finsler geometry naturally generalizes the Ricci curvature in Riemannian geometry. In this paper, we study the -th root metric with weakly isotropic scalar curvature and obtain that its scalar curvature must vanish.

Intrinsic problems of the gravitational baryogenesis

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2017
Modification of gravity due to the curvature dependent term in the gravitational baryogenesis scenario is considered. It is shown that this term leads to the fourth order differential equation of motion for the curvature scalar instead of the algebraic ...

Infinite loop spaces and positive scalar curvature in the presence of a fundamental group [PDF]

open access: yesGeometry and Topology, 2017
This is a continuation of our previous work with Botvinnik on the nontriviality of the secondary index invariant on spaces of metrics of positive scalar curvature, in which we take the fundamental group of the manifolds into account.

Derivative couplings in gravitational production in the early universe

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
Gravitational particle production in the early universe is due to the coupling of matter fields to curvature. This coupling may include derivative terms that modify the kinetic term.

Scalar Curvature of a Causal Set [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2010
A one parameter family of retarded linear operators on scalar fields on causal sets is introduced. When the causal set is well approximated by 4 dimensional Minkowski spacetime, the operators are Lorentz invariant but nonlocal, are parametrized by the scale of the nonlocality, and approximate the continuum scalar D'Alembertian square when acting on ...

Deformation of scalar curvature and volume [PDF]

open access: yesMathematische Annalen, 2013
The stationary points of the total scalar curvature functional on the space of unit volume metrics on a given closed manifold are known to be precisely the Einstein metrics. One may consider the modified problem of finding stationary points for the volume functional on the space of metrics whose scalar curvature is equal to a given constant.
