Quintessential Quartic Quasi-topological Quartet

Ahmed, Jamil, Hennigar, Robie A., Mann, Robert B. et al.

Understand

We construct the quartic version of generalized quasi-topological gravity, which was recently constructed to cubic order in arXiv: 1703.01631.

This class of theories includes Lovelock gravity and a known form of quartic quasi-topological gravity as special cases and possess a number of remarkable properties: (i) In vacuum, or in the presence of suitable matter, there is a single independent field equation which is a total derivative.
(ii) At the linearized level, the equations of motion on a maximally symmetric background are second order, coinciding with the linearized Einstein equations up to a redefinition of Newton's constant.
Therefore, these theories propagate only the massless, transverse graviton on a maximally symmetric background.
