一种新的双度量-物质耦合中的鬼现象

Absence of ghost in a new bimetric-matter coupling

S. F. Hassan, Mikica Kocic, Angnis Schmidt-May

摘要:

双度规理论中的相互作用可以描述存在额外自旋2场时的引力,但受到不存在Boulware-Deser鬼不稳定性的严格限制。最近,一个有趣的新物质耦合提出了一个复合度量,但它声称重新引入鬼。在本文中,我们进行了非线性哈密顿分析,这种新的物质耦合,并表明,它确实是鬼自由。分析涉及到使用一组新的变量,自然出现在度量和vielbein双度量理论配方之间的关系。在这些变量方面,我们表明,新的物质耦合并没有减少双度量理论的约束条件的数量,因此不会重新引入Boulware-Deser鬼。

英文摘要:

Interactions in bimetric theory, which can describe gravity in the presence of an extra spin-2 field, are severely constrained by the requirement of the absence of the Boulware-Deser ghost instability. Recently an interesting new matter coupling was proposed in terms of a composite metric but it was claimed to reintroduce the ghost. In this paper we carry out a nonlinear Hamiltonian analysis of this new matter coupling and show that it is indeed ghost-free. The analysis involves using a new set of variables that naturally appear in the relation between the metric and vielbein formulations of bimetric theory. In terms of these variables we show that the new matter coupling does not reduce the number of constraints in bimetric theory and hence does not reintroduce the Boulware-Deser ghost.
