The careful physicist’s guide to modified gravity in the UV
In this thesis we investigate scalar and scalar-tensor field theories and their relation to low energy modifications of Einstein’s General Relativity (GR), as well as their mathematical validity and self-consistency. We begin by outlining the cosmological constant problem, and how large quantum corr...
