Abstract We investigate emergent gravity extending the paradigm of the AdS/CFT correspondence. The emergent graviton is associated to the (dynamical) expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor. We derive the general effective description of such dynamics, and apply it to the case where a hidden theory generates gravity that is coupled to the Standard Model. In the linearized description, generically, such gravity is massive with the presence of an extra scalar degree of freedom. The propagators of both the spin-two and spin-zero modes are positive and well defined. The associated emergent gravitational theory is a bi-gravity theory, as is (secretly) the case in holography. The background metric on which the QFTs are defined, plays the role of dark energy and the emergent theory has always as a solution the original background metric. In the case where the hidden theory is holographic, the overall description yields a higher-dimensional bulk theory coupled to a brane. The effective graviton on the brane has four-dimensional characteristics both in the UV and IR and is always massive.

In this paper, we analyze some dynamical features of spherical celestial objects through structure scalars in [Formula: see text] gravitational theory, where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are the Ricci scalar and the trace of energy–momentum tensor, respectively. In this framework, we consider our relativistic geometry to be spherical in shape filled with radiating viscous and shearing fluid content. We formulate extended version of structure scalars by orthogonal decomposition of the Riemann tensor with and without constant [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] backgrounds. We discuss the effects of dark source corrections on the construction of expansion and shear evolution equations via scalar variables. It is inferred that like general relativity, one can investigate the evolutionary stages of stellar compact objects with the help of extended scalar parameters.

Bosonic representations of N=2 superconformal algebra are studied. We show that the free energy momentum tensor decomposes into an orthogonal sum of the interacting bosonic model (IBM) and a coset-like tensors. We define the notion of flags of models and show that the central charge does not decrease along the flags. We examine the conditions for an arbitrary un-oriented graph to form an IBM. We discuss several properties of the chiral algebra of these models and examine the role of the continuous parameters by studying an example. Finally we discuss the relations between these models and the N=2 superconformal coset models.

The Palatini [Formula: see text] gravity theory is considered. The standard Einstein–Hilbert action is replaced by an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar [Formula: see text] and of the trace [Formula: see text] of the energy-momentum tensor. In the Palatini approach, the Ricci scalar is a function of the metric and the connection. These two quantities, metric and connection, are taken as independent variables. Then, it is examined whether Palatini [Formula: see text] gravity theory allows solutions in which lead to violation of causality. The Gödel and Gödel-type spacetimes are considered. In addition, a critical radius, which permits to examine limits for violation of causality, is calculated. It is shown that, for different matter contents, noncausal solutions can be avoided in this Palatini gravitational theory.

Starting from the known representation of the Kac–Moody algebra in terms of the coordinates and momenta, we extend it to the representation of the super Kac–Moody and super Virasoro algebras. Then we use general canonical method to construct an action invariant under local gauge symmetries, where components of the super energy–momentum tensor L± and G± play the role of the diffeomorphisms and supersymmetry generators respectively. We obtain covariant extension of WZNW theory with respect to local supersymmetry as well as explicit expressions for gauge transformations.

The time-dependent cosmological term arises from the energy-momentum tensor calculated in a state different from the ground state. We discuss the expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor on the right hand side of Einstein equations in various (approximate) quantum pure as well as mixed states. We apply the classical slow-roll field evolution as well as the Starobinsky and warm inflation stochastic equations in order to calculate the expectation value. We show that, in the state concentrated at the local maximum of the double-well potential, the expectation value is decreasing exponentially. We confirm the descent of the expectation value in the stochastic inflation model. We calculate the cosmological constant Λ at large time as the expectation value of the energy density with respect to the stationary probability distribution. We show that Λ ≃ γ 4 3 where γ is the thermal dissipation rate.

Interactions of the technidilaton with fermions and gauge bosons are obtained by constructing a low energy effective Lagrangian and using the fact that the technidilaton couples to the trace of the energy-momentum tensor Θµµ. Technidilaton’s interactions are compared with those of the Higgs bosons of the Standard Model with one or two scalar doublets.

Corrections to Newton’s inverse law have been so far considered, but not clear in warped higher dimensional worlds, because of complexity of the Einstein equation. Here, we give a model of a warped 6D world with an extra 2D sphere. We take a general energy–momentum tensor, which does not depend on a special choice of bulk matter fields. The 6D Einstein equation reduces to the spheroidal differential equation, which can be easily solved. The gravitational potential in our 4D universe is calculated to be composed of infinite series of massive Yukawa potentials coming from the KK mode, together with Newton’s inverse law. The series of Yukawa type potentials converges well to behave as [Formula: see text] near [Formula: see text].

Within the scope of Bianchi type-IX cosmological model we have studied the role of spinor field in the evolution of the Universe. It is found that unlike the diagonal Bianchi models in this case the components of energy–momentum tensor of spinor field along the principal axis are not the same (i.e., [Formula: see text]), even in the absence of spinor field nonlinearity. The presence of nontrivial non-diagonal components of energy–momentum tensor of the spinor field imposes severe restrictions both on geometry of space–time and on the spinor field itself. As a result the space–time turns out to be either locally rotationally symmetric or isotropic. In this paper we considered the Bianchi type-IX space–time both for a trivial b, that corresponds to standard Bianchi type-IX and the one with a non-trivial b. It was found that a positive self-coupling constant λ1 gives rise to an oscillatory mode of expansion, while a trivial λ1 leads to rapid expansion at the early stage of evolution.

We investigate the role of tilted and nontilted congruence in the dynamics of dissipative Lemaître–Tolman–Bondi spacetime in [Formula: see text] gravity. We consider imperfect fluid with its congruences observed by tilted observer and dust fluid filled with LTB geometry observed by the nontilted observer. In order to elaborate the dynamical features of two congruences, we consider well-known [Formula: see text] models and develop relationships between tilted and nontilted dynamical variables. We evaluate the nonzero divergence of energy–momentum tensor for tilted congruence and transport equation for the system in [Formula: see text] gravity. We have also checked the instability regimes for nontilted congruence.
