Scalar-tensor gravity and conformal continuations
Global properties of vacuum static, spherically symmetric configurations are studied in a general class of scalartensor theories (STT) of gravity in various dimensions. The conformal mapping between the Jordan and Einstein frames is used as a tool. Necessary and sufficient conditions are found for the existence of solutions admitting a conformal continuation (CC). The latter means that a singul...
متن کاملScale-invariant Gravity: Geometrodynamics
We present a scale-invariant theory, conformal gravity, which closely resembles the geometrodynamical formulation of general relativity (GR). While previous attempts to create scaleinvariant theories of gravity have been based on Weyl’s idea of a compensating field, our direct approach dispenses with this and is built by extension of the method of best matching w.r.t scaling developed in the pa...
متن کاملScale-invariant Gravity: Particle Dynamics
A new and universal method for implementing scale invariance, called best matching, is presented. It extends to scaling the method introduced by Bertotti and the author to create a fully relational dynamics that satisfies Mach’s principle. The method is illustrated here in the context of non-relativistic gravitational particle dynamics. It leads to far stronger predictions than general Newtonia...
متن کاملScale-invariant gravity: Spacetime recovered
The configuration space of general relativity is superspace the space of all Riemannian 3-metrics modulo diffeomorphisms. However, it has been argued that the configuration space for gravity should be conformal superspace the space of all Riemannian 3-metrics modulo diffeomorphisms and conformal transformations. Recently a manifestly 3-dimensional theory was constructed with conformal superspac...
متن کاملScale Invariant Spectrum from Variable Speed of Light Metric in a Bimetric Gravity Theory
An approximately scale invariant spectrum generating the seeds of structure formation is derived from a bimetric gravity theory. By requiring that the amplitude of the CMB fluctuations from the model matches the observed value, we determine the fundamental length scale in the model to be a factor of 10 times larger than the Planck length, which results in a scalar mode spectral index: ns ≈ 0.97...
