Title

A new way to count degrees of freedom in dRGT theory
Co-authors Cedric Deffayet, Jihad Mourad

Abstract

Recently, there has been a lot of progress in the area of non-linear massive gravity. In particular a theory free from the “Boulware-Deser ghost” has been proposed by de Rham, Gabadadze, Tolley (dRGT). We clarify some of its existing formulations, and provide a new and elegant alternative approach to the counting of the number of degrees of freedom of dRGT theory.
