High Energy Theory Seminar: Partially massless gravity

Kurt Hinterbichler (Perimeter)
DRL 2N36

On de Sitter space, there exists a special value for the mass of a graviton for which the linear theory propagates 4 rather than 5 degrees of freedom. If a fully non-linear version of the theory exists and can be…

High Energy Theory Seminar: Conformal Invariance, Dark Energy and CMB Non-Gaussianity

Emil Mottola (LANL)
DRL 2N36

A universe dominated by dark energy naturally gives rise to correlation functions possessing full conformal invariance. This is a consequence of the conformal group of flat 3-dimensional spatial sections being…
