Local Lorentz Invariance

Torsion-based modified theories of gravity, such as [Formula: see text] gravity, are arguably one of the very few “true” modified gravities based on well-defined geometric structures. However, the original formulation explicitly works in a specific choice of frame, which has led to considerable amount of confusion in the literature about these theories breaking local Lorentz invariance. Pathological properties such as superluminal propagation and the lack of well-posedness of Cauchy problem were found to plague [Formula: see text] gravity. Recent effort to “covariantize” [Formula: see text] gravity has, however, renewed interests in this subject. In this proceeding paper, we review and discuss issues concerning the actual number of degrees of freedom in [Formula: see text] gravity, and how this might relate to the aforementioned pathologies.

Higher Order Differential Equations

We discuss the stability of the general-relativity (GR) limit in modified theories of gravity, particularly the f(R) theory. The problem of approximating the higher-order differential equations in modified gravity with the Einstein equations (2nd-order differential equations) in GR is elaborated. We demonstrate this problem with a heuristic example involving a simple ordinary differential equation. With this example we further present the iteration method that may serve as a better approximation for solving the equation, meanwhile providing a criterion for assessing the validity of the approximation. We then discuss our previous numerical analyses of the early-time evolution of the cosmological perturbations in f(R) gravity, following the similar ideas demonstrated by the heuristic example. The results of the analyses indicated the possible instability of the GR limit that might make the GR approximation inaccurate in describing the evolution of the cosmological perturbations in the long run.

Theories Of Gravity

This paper investigates one of the most interesting effects associated with the rotation of astrophysical objects (the Sagnac effect). The effect was first confirmed in laboratory experiments by Georges Sagnac with a rotating ring interferometer in 1913. Later, the effect was also confirmed within the framework of the Earth in the "Around-the-World" experiment conducted by J. Hafele and R. Kitting, in which they twice circled the Earth with an atomic cesium clock on board and compared the "flying" clock with those remaining static on the Earth. As a result, a non-zero difference in the clock rate was found as a confirmation of the Sagnac effect. Subsequently, more precise satellite experiments have been carried out to measure the Sagnac effect within the Earth. The effect was also considered in general relativity and modified theories of gravity, where many works were carried out to study the influence of such parameters as angular momentum, cosmological constant, Ricci scalar, etc. on the Sagnac effect. An interesting task is to study the influence of a magnetic charge on the effect, since the solution with rotation described by a black hole with mass M and magnetic charge g is the Bardeen nonsingular black hole. The work will calculate the Sagnac effect in the space-time of the rotating Bardeen black hole for both geodesic and non-geodesic circular orbits of the light source / receiver (assuming that the light source and receiver are defined at the same point). Two types of circular orbits describe the opposing influence on the Sagnac effect: the Sagnac delay increases with an increase in the magnetic charge in the case of non-geodesic circular orbits and decreases in the case of geodesic circular orbits. However, the farther is the orbit of the light source / receiver, the less the magnetic charge affects the Sagnac delay. It is also assumed that the gravity of the Earth and the Sun near the surface is well described by the Bardeen metric.
