Galaxy Rotation Curves in Covariant Hořava-Lifshitz Gravity
نویسنده
چکیده
Using the multiplicity of solutions for the projectable case of the covariant extension of Hořava-Lifshitz gravity, we show that an appropriate choice for the auxiliary field allows for an effective description of galaxy rotation curves. This description is based on static and spherically symmetric solutions of covariant Hořava-Lifshitz gravity and does not require Dark Matter.

Hořava-Lifshitz Holography
We derive the detailed balance condition as a solution to the Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the Hořava-Lifshitz gravity. This result leads us to propose the existence of the d-dimensional quantum field theory on the future boundary of the (d + 1)dimensional Hořava-Lifshitz gravity from the viewpoint of the holographic renormalization group. We also obtain a Ricci flow equation of the boundary the...
متن کاملSurplus Solid Angle: Toward Astrophysical Test of Hořava-Lifshitz Gravity
We consider electrostatic field of a point charge coupled to Hořava-Lifshitz gravity and find an exact solution describing the space with a surplus (or deficit) solid angle. Although, theoretically in general relativity, a surplus angle is hardly to be obtained in the presence of ordinary matter with positive energy distribution, it seems natural in Hořava-Lifshitz gravity. We present sudden di...

A covariant scalar-tensor-vector gravity theory is developed which allows the gravitational constant G, a vector field coupling ω and the vector field mass μ to vary with space and time. The equations of motion for a test particle lead to a modified gravitational acceleration law that can fit galaxy rotation curves without non-baryonic dark matter. The theory is consistent with solar system and...

متن کاملDark matter as integration constant in Hořava-Lifshitz gravity
In the non-relativistic theory of gravitation recently proposed by Hořava, the Hamiltonian constraint is not a local equation satisfied at each spatial point but an equation integrated over a whole space. The global Hamiltonian constraint is less restrictive than its local version, and allows a richer set of solutions than in general relativity. We show that a component which behaves like press...
