  1. 1. Geometry of interactions in ghost-free bimetric theory

    Author : Mikica Kocic; Sayed Fawad Hassan; Tomi Koivisto; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Modified gravity; Interacting spin-2 fields; Bimetric theory; Massive gravity; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : The ghost-free bimetric theory is an extension to general relativity where two metric tensors are used instead of one. A priori, the two metrics may not have compatible notions of space and time, which makes the formulation of the initial-value problem problematic. READ MORE

  2. 2. Theoretical and numerical bimetric relativity

    Author : Francesco Torsello; Edvard Mörtsell; Eugeny Babichev; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; spin-2 fields; extension of general relativity; ghost-free bimetric theory; Hassan–Rosen bimetric relativity; numerical relativity; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : General relativity (GR) is the standard physical theory describing gravitational interactions. All astrophysical and cosmological observations are compatible with its predictions, provided that unknown matter and energy components are included. These are called dark matter and dark energy.

  3. 3. Computation of constraints in bimetric theory

    Author : Anders Lundkvist; Fawad Hassan; Edwin Langmann; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : The Hassan-Rosen bimetric theory describes two interacting spin-2 fields, one massless and one massive. In this thesis, a complete canonical analysis of this theory is performed in the metric formulation and all constraints are computed. READ MORE

  4. 4. Strings, Gravitons, and Effective Field Theories

    Author : Igor Buchberger; Marcus Berg; Joseph A. Minahan; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; string theory; amplitudes; supersymmetry; particle phenomenology; BMSSM; modified gravity; bimetric; massive gravity; Lie algebras; ribbon categories; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns a range of aspects of theoretical physics. It is composed of two parts. In the first part we motivate our line of research, and introduce and discuss the relevant concepts. In the second part, four research papers are collected. READ MORE

  5. 5. Gravitational collapse in bimetric gravity

    Author : Marcus Högås; Edvard Mörtsell; Tomi Koivisto; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bimetric gravity; bigravity; modified gravity; gravitational collapse; Bimetrisk gravitation; modifierad gravitation; gravitationskollaps; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : Einstein’s theory of general relativity has been the prevailing theory of classical gravity for over a century. Its observational consistency is unparalleled. There are however a few (arguably) serious short-comings. READ MORE
