[HTML][HTML] Massive gravity
C de Rham - Living reviews in relativity, 2014 - Springer
We review recent progress in massive gravity. We start by showing how different theories of
massive gravity emerge from a higher-dimensional theory of general relativity, leading to the …

Constraints on a gravitational Higgs mechanism
J Bonifacio, K Hinterbichler, RA Rosen - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
We show that it is impossible to improve the high-energy behavior of the tree-level four-point
amplitude of a massive spin-2 particle by including the exchange of any number of scalars …

On the (A) dS decoupling limits of massive gravity
C De Rham, K Hinterbichler, LA Johnson - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 - Springer
A bstract We consider various decoupling limits of ghost-free massive gravity on (A) dS. The
first is a decoupling limit on AdS space where the mass goes to zero while the AdS radius is …

Cosmological investigations of (extended) nonlinear massive gravity schemes with nonminimal coupling
In this paper we investigate the case of nonminimal coupling in the (extended) nonlinear
massive gravity theories. We first consider massive gravity in the Brans-Dicke background …

Cosmology of nonlinear massive gravity
The theory of nonlinear massive gravity can be extended into the F (R) form as developed by
Cai et al.[Phys. Rev. D 90, 064051 (2014)]. Being free of the Boulware-Deser ghost, such a …
