Modesto, Leonardo

In this paper we study perturbatively an extension of the Stelle higher derivative gravity involving an infinite number of derivative terms.

We know that the usual quadratic action is renormalizable but suffers of the unitarity problem because of the presence of a ghost (state of negative norm) in the theory.
The new theory is instead ghost-free since the introduction of (in general) two entire functions in the model with the property do not introduce new poles in the propagator.
The local high derivative theory is recovered expanding the entire functions to the lowest order in the mass scale of the theory.
