We study the behaviour of Yang–Mills theory under the inclusion of gravity. In the weak-gravity
limit, the running gauge coupling receives no contribution from the gravitational sector, if …

Cognitive psychologists have long hypothesized that experiences are encoded in a temporal
context that changes gradually over time. When an episodic memory is retrieved, the state …

We study the field theoretical description of a generic theory of gravity flowing to Einstein
general relativity in IR. We prove that, if ghost-free, in the weakly-coupled regime such a theory …

numerical factors in front of the kinetic terms in the following, which can easily be restored by …

Constraints on inflationary scenarios and isocurvature perturbations have excluded the
simplest and most generic models of dark matter based on QCD axions. Considering non-…

We consider general theories of a massive spin-2 particle $h_{\mu\nu}$ on a Minkowski
background. A decomposition of $h_{\mu\nu}$ in terms of helicity eigenstates allows us to …

We give an introduction to massive spin-2 theories and the problem of their non-linear
completion. We review the Boulware-Deser ghost problem and two ways to circumvent classic no-…

Cognitive psychologists have long hypothesized that experiences are encoded in a temporal
context that changes gradually over time. When an episodic memory is retrieved, the state …

Purpose: This study investigated the readability, suitability, and quality of online Single- Sided
Deafness (SSD) information available in English. Method: Four search terms (“Deaf in one …

In this thesis, we investigate different aspects of gravity as an effective field theory. Building
on the arguments of self-completeness of Einstein gravity, we argue that any sensible theory, …
