Abstract We generalize a notion of ‘conserved’ charges given by Wald and Zoupas to the asymptotically de Sitter spacetimes. Surprisingly, our construction is less ambiguous than the one encountered in the asymptotically flat context. An expansion around exact solutions possessing Killing vectors provides their physical meaning. In particular, we discuss a question of how to define energy and angular momenta of gravitational waves propagating on Kottler and Carter backgrounds. We show that obtained expressions have a correct limit as Λ → 0. We also comment on the relation between this approach and the one based on the canonical phase space of initial data at ℐ+.

We present a technique for obtaining exact spherically symmetric asymptotically de Sitter (dS) or anti-de Sitter (adS) black hole solutions of dilaton gravity with generic coupling to Maxwell field, starting from asymptotically flat solutions and adding a suitable dilaton potential to the action.

In this work, we study constant-roll inflation driven by a scalar field with nonminimal derivative coupling to gravity, via the Einstein tensor. This model contains a free parameter, [Formula: see text], which quantifies the nonminimal derivative coupling and a parameter [Formula: see text] which characterizes the constant-roll condition. In this scenario, using the Hamilton–Jacobi-like formalism, an ansatz for the Hubble parameter (as a function of the scalar field) and some restrictions on the model parameters, we found new exact solutions for the inflaton potential which include power-law, de Sitter, quadratic hilltop and natural inflation, among others. Additionally, a phase-space analysis was performed and it is shown that the exact solutions associated to natural inflation and a “cosh-type” potential, are attractors.

Recent developments in the gravitational waves interferometry require more pertinent theoretical models of gravitational waves generation and propagation. Untouched possible mechanisms of spin-2 spacetime perturbations production, we will consider their subsequent scattering on other black holes (BHs). Specifically, we consider a generalization of the Regge-Wheeler-Zerilli equations for the case of distorted BHs (BHs surrounded with matter) in Minkowski and Anti-de Sitter spacetimes, the metric potential of which obeys the Liouville equation. We establish significant differences in scattering characteristics of waves of different spins and angular momenta, including the gravitational waves, caused by losing the spherical symmetry of their propagation background. In particular, we demonstrate the strong impact of the background geometry deformation on the grey-body factors, hence on the absorption cross-sections of scattering waves, and explore the issue of stability of the background geometry upon changing the deformation degree parameters.

We solve perturbative constraints and eliminate gauge freedom for Ashtekar’s gravity on a de Sitter background. We show that the reduced phase space consists of transverse, traceless, symmetric fluctuations of the triad and transverse, traceless, symmetric fluctuations of the connection. A part of the gauge freedom corresponding to the conformal Killing vectors of the three-manifold can be fixed only by imposing conditions on the Lagrange multiplier. The reduced phase space is equivalent to that of ADM gravity on the same background.

Abstract We perform a careful study of the infrared sector of massless non-abelian gauge theories in four-dimensional Minkowski spacetime using the covariant phase space formalism, taking into account the boundary contributions arising from the gauge sector of the theory. Upon quantization, we show that the boundary contributions lead to an infinite degeneracy of the vacua. The Hilbert space of the vacuum sector is not only shown to be remarkably simple, but also universal. We derive a Ward identity that relates the n-point amplitude between two generic in- and out-vacuum states to the one computed in standard QFT. In addition, we demonstrate that the familiar single soft gluon theorem and multiple consecutive soft gluon theorem are consequences of the Ward identity.

In this work, we investigate wormhole configurations described by a constant redshift function in Einstein-Cubic gravity ( ECG ). We derive analytical wormhole geometries by assuming a particular equation of state ( EoS ) and investigate the possibility that these solutions satisfy the standard energy conditions. We introduce exact asymptotically flat and anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetimes that admit traversable wormholes. These solutions are obtained by imposing suitable values for the parameters of the theory so that the resulted geometries satisfy the weak energy condition ( WEC ) in the vicinity of the throat, due to the presence of higher-order curvature terms. Moreover, we find that AdS solutions satisfy the WEC throughout the spacetime. A description of the geodesic motion of time-like and null particles is presented for the obtained wormhole solutions. Also, using gravitational lensing effects, observational features of the wormhole structure are discussed.

Several arguments suggest that the Planck scale could be the characteristic scale of curvature of momentum space. As other recent studies, we assume that the metric of momentum space determines the condition of on-shellness while the momentum space affine connection governs the form of the law of composition of momenta. We show that the possible choices of laws of composition of momenta are more numerous than the possible choices of affine connection on a momentum space. This motivates us to propose a new prescription for associating an affine connection to momentum composition, which we compare to the one most used in the recent literature. We find that the two prescriptions lead to the same picture of the so-called [Formula: see text]-momentum space, with de Sitter (dS) metric and [Formula: see text]-Poincaré connection. We then show that in the case of “proper dS momentum space”, with the dS metric and its Levi–Civita connection, the two prescriptions are inequivalent. Our novel prescription leads to a picture of proper dS momentum space which is DSR-relativistic and is characterized by a commutative law of composition of momenta, a possibility for which no explicit curved momentum space picture had been previously found. This momentum space can serve as laboratory for the exploration of the properties of DSR-relativistic theories which are not connected to group-manifold momentum spaces and Hopf algebras, and is a natural test case for the study of momentum spaces with commutative, and yet deformed, laws of composition of momenta.

The exact solutions of the one-dimensional Klein–Gordon equation for the Rosen–Morse type potential with equal scalar and vector potentials are presented. First, we briefly review Nikiforov–Uvarov mathematical method. Using this method, wave functions and corresponding exact energy equation are obtained for the s-wave bound state. It has been shown that the results for Rosen–Morse type potentials reduce to the standard Rosen–Morse well and Eckart potentials in the special case. The PT-symmetry for these potentials is also considered.
