Nonlinear partially massless from massive gravity?
We show that consistent nonlinear partially massless models cannot be obtained starting from ‘‘f-g’’ massive gravity, with ‘‘f’’ the embedding de Sitter space. The obstruction, which is also the source of f-g acausality, is the very same fifth constraint that removes the notorious sixth ghost excitation. Here, however, it blocks extension of the gauge invariance (appearing for mass to de Sitter...
متن کاملNo consistent bimetric gravity?
Two-tensor, bimetric (or ‘‘f-g’’) gravity (BMG) was born as the fusion of the strong-interaction resonances of the 1960s (specifically that of a massive spin 2 field) with general relativity’s (GR) massless metric [1]. The idea was to join the two symmetrically by giving each its own Einstein-Hilbert action, then coupling the two resulting ‘‘spaces’’ through a nonderivative ‘‘mass term’’ that n...

متن کاملPM1⁄4EM? Partially massless duality invariance
is almost coeval with Maxwell’s equations themselves, although a proof of its validity awaited over a century [1,2]. In addition to countless generalizations of ‘‘duality’’ in field and string theory, it has led to an enormous variety of more precise analogs, in particular to spin 2 [2,3], then to all free massless (integer or half-integer) spin s > 0 systems in flat space [4,5]. In de Sitter (...
متن کاملFluctuation Spectrum from a Scalar-Tensor Bimetric Gravity Theory
Predictions of the CMB spectrum from a bimetric gravity theory (BGT) [1] are presented. The initial inflationary period in BGT is driven by a vanishingly small speed of gravitational waves vg in the very early universe. This initial inflationary period is insensitive to the choice of scalar field potential and initial values of the scalar field. After this initial period of inflation, vg will i...
