超越Horndeski的标量张量理论的Hamilton结构

Hamiltonian structure of scalar-tensor theories beyond Horndeski

Chunshan Lin, Shinji Mukohyama, Ryo Namba, Rio Saitou

摘要:

我们研究了Gleyzes,Langlois,Piazza和Vernizzi(GLPV)最近提出的标量张量引力理论中的约束性质和哈密顿结构。对于A_5 = 0的简单情形,即当与空间度规共轭的正则动量在外曲率上是线性的时,我们证明了GLPV所主张的在完全非线性水平上的物理自由度为3。因此,虽然这个理论扩展了霍恩代斯基的标量-张量引力理论,但它受到了额外自由度的保护。

英文摘要:

We study the nature of constraints and the Hamiltonian structure in a scalar-tensor theory of gravity recently proposed by Gleyzes, Langlois, Piazza and Vernizzi (GLPV). For the simple case with A_5 = 0, namely when the canonical momenta conjugate to the spatial metric are linear in the extrinsic curvature, we prove that the number of physical degrees of freedom is three at fully nonlinear level, as claimed by GLPV. Therefore, while this theory extends Horndeski's scalar-tensor gravity theory, it is protected against additional degrees of freedom.
