Teleparallel gravity: from theory to cosmology

S Bahamonde, KF Dialektopoulos… - Reports on Progress …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
Teleparallel gravity (TG) has significantly increased in popularity in recent decades, bringing
attention to Einstein's other theory of gravity. In this Review, we give a comprehensive …

The Lovelock black holes

C Garraffo, G Giribet - Modern Physics Letters A, 2008 - World Scientific
Lovelock theory is a natural extension of Einstein theory of gravity to higher dimensions, and
it is of great interest in theoretical physics as it describes a wide class of models. In …

Covariant theory of asymptotic symmetries, conservation laws and central charges

G Barnich, F Brandt - Nuclear Physics B, 2002 - Elsevier
Under suitable assumptions on the boundary conditions, it is shown that there is a bijective
correspondence between equivalence classes of asymptotic reducibility parameters and …

Einstein gravity from conformal gravity

J Maldacena - arXiv preprint arXiv:1105.5632, 2011 - arxiv.org
We show that that four dimensional conformal gravity plus a simple Neumann boundary
condition can be used to get the semiclassical (or tree level) wavefunction of the universe of …

Black hole scan

J Crisostomo, R Troncoso, J Zanelli - Physical Review D, 2000 - APS
Gravitation theories selected by requiring that they have a unique anti–de Sitter vacuum with
a fixed cosmological constant are studied. For a given dimension d, the Lagrangians under …

Energy and entropy in the geometrical trinity of gravity

DA Gomes, JB Jiménez, TS Koivisto - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
All energy is gravitational energy. That is the consequence of the equivalence principle,
according to which gravity is the universal interaction. The physical charges of this …

Gauss-Bonnet quintessence: Background evolution, large scale structure,<? format?> and cosmological constraints

T Koivisto, DF Mota - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2007 - APS
We investigate a string-inspired dark energy scenario featuring a scalar field with a coupling
to the Gauss-Bonnet invariant. We discuss extensively the cosmological and astrophysical …

Entropy of null surfaces and dynamics of spacetime

T Padmanabhan, A Paranjape - … Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2007 - APS
The null surfaces of a spacetime act as oneway membranes and can block information for a
corresponding family of observers (timelike curves). Since lack of information can be related …

Asymptotic gravitational charges

H Godazgar, M Godazgar, MJ Perry - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
We present a method for finding, in principle, all asymptotic gravitational charges. The basic
idea is that one must consider all possible contributions to the action that do not affect the …

Topological terms and the Misner string entropy

L Ciambelli, C Corral, J Figueroa, G Giribet, R Olea - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
The method of topological renormalization in anti–de Sitter (AdS) gravity consists in adding
to the action a topological term which renders it finite, defining at the same time a well-posed …
