Nonlocal quantum gravity: A review

L Modesto, L Rachwał - International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2017 - World Scientific
We hereby review a class of quantum gravitational theories based on weakly nonlocal
analytic classical actions. The most general action is characterized by two nonpolynomial …

Modified gravity and cosmology

EN Saridakis, R Lazkoz, V Salzano, PV Moniz… - 2021 - Springer
The dawn of the twenty-first century came with very positive prospects for gravity, cosmology,
and astrophysics. Technological progress made it possible for cosmology to enter to its …

Notes on nonsingular models of black holes

VP Frolov - Physical Review D, 2016 - APS
We discuss static spherically symmetric metrics which represent nonsingular black holes in
four-and higher-dimensional spacetime. We impose a set of restrictions, such as a regularity …

Implications of a Simpson–Visser solution in Verlinde's framework

AAA Filho - The European Physical Journal C, 2024 - Springer
This study focuses on investigating a regular black hole within the framework of Verlinde's
emergent gravity. In particular, we explore the main aspects of the modified Simpson–Visser …

Analysis of a regular black hole in verlinde's gravity

AA Araújo Filho - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
This work focuses on the examination of a regular black hole within Verlinde's emergent
gravity, specifically investigating the Hayward-like (modified) solution. The study reveals the …

Classical properties of non-local, ghost-and singularity-free gravity

In this paper we will show all the linearized curvature tensors in the infinite derivative ghost
and singularity free theory of gravity in the static limit. We have found that in the region of …

[HTML][HTML] Superrenormalizable quantum gravity with complex ghosts

L Modesto, IL Shapiro - Physics Letters B, 2016 - Elsevier
We suggest and briefly review a new sort of superrenormalizable models of higher
derivative quantum gravity. The higher derivative terms in the action can be introduced in …

Occurrence of exact R 2 inflation in non-local UV-complete gravity

AS Koshelev, L Modesto, L Rachwal… - Journal of High Energy …, 2016 - Springer
A bstract The R+ R 2, shortly named “R 2”(“Starobinsky”) inflationary model, represents a
fully consistent example of a one-parameter inflationary scenario. This model has a “graceful …

[HTML][HTML] Super-renormalizable or finite Lee–Wick quantum gravity

L Modesto - Nuclear Physics B, 2016 - Elsevier
We propose a class of multidimensional higher derivative theories of gravity without extra
real degrees of freedom besides the graviton field. The propagator shows up the usual real …
