Quasi-toplogical Ricci Gravities and Their Constraints

Event Details

We study Einstein gravity extended with Riccipolynomial invariants and obtain the quasitopological structures that do not affect the equations of motion of the static black hole ansatz. We then study the holographic a-theorem and causality which provide further constraints on the coupling constants of these quasi-topological structures.
