Gravitational Rainbows: LIGO and Dark Energy at its Cutoff
/ de Rham, Claudia ; Melville, Scott
The recent direct detection of gravitational waves from a neutron star merger with optical counterpart has been used to severely constrain models of dark energy that typically predict a modification of the gravitational wave speed. [...]

Non-compact nonlinear sigma models
/ de Rham, Claudia ; Tolley, Andrew J. ; Zhou, Shuang-Yong
The target space of a nonlinear sigma model is usually required to be positive definite to avoid ghosts. [...]

Ostrogradsky in theories with multiple fields
/ de Rham, Claudia ; Matas, Andrew
We review how the (absence of) Ostrogradsky instability manifests itself in theories with multiple fields. [...]

Riding on irrelevant operators
/ de Rham, Claudia ; Ribeiro, Raquel H.
We investigate the stability of a class of derivative theories known as P(X) and Galileons against corrections generated by quantum effects. [...]

Galileon duality
/ de Rham, Claudia ; Fasiello, Matteo ; Tolley, Andrew J.
We show that every Galileon theory admits a dual formulation as a Galileon theory with new operator coefficients. [...]
