Scale-invariant alternatives to general relativity

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Daniel Zenhäusern, Diego Blas Temino

We study the general class of gravitational field theories constructed on the basis of scale invariance (and therefore absence of any mass parameters) and invariance under transverse diffeomorphisms, which are the 4-volume conserving coordinate transformat ...

Scale-Invariant Models of Gravity and Particle Physics and their Cosmological Implications

Daniel Zenhäusern

Currently, the best theoretical description of fundamental matter and its gravitational interaction is given by the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics and Einstein's theory of General Relativity (GR). These theories contain a number of seemingly unrel ...

Higgs-dilaton cosmology: From the early to the late Universe

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Daniel Zenhäusern, Javier Rubio

We consider a minimal scale-invariant extension of the standard model of particle physics combined with unimodular gravity formulated in [M. Shaposhnikov and D. Zenhausern, Phys. Lett. B 671, 187 (2009).]. This theory is able to describe not only an inflat ...

Scale invariance, unimodular gravity and dark energy

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Daniel Zenhäusern

We demonstrate that the combination of the ideas of unimodular gravity, scale invariance, and the existence of an exactly massless dilaton leads to the evolution of the universe supported by present observations: inflation in the past, followed by the radi ...

Quantum scale invariance, cosmological constant and hierarchy problem

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Daniel Zenhäusern

We construct a class of theories which are scale-invariant on quantum level in all orders of perturbation theory. In a subclass of these models scale invariance is spontaneously broken, leading to the existence of a massless dilaton. The applications of th ...
