The status of quantum cosmologies as testable models of the early universe is assessed in the context of inflation. While traditional WheelerDeWitt quantization is unable to produce sizable effects in the cosmic microwave background, the more recent loop quantum cosmology can generate potentially detectable departures from the standard cosmic spectrum. Thus, present observations constrain the parameter space of the model, which could be made falsifiable by near-future experiments.

Stochastic gravitational-wave background in quantum gravity

Gianluca Calcagni, Sachiko Kuroyanagi

Summary: Among the five cosmological quantum-gravity or quantum-gravity-inspired scenarios explored, only the non-local quantum gravity model is found to be unobservable, while the other models can achieve the strain sensitivity of DECIGO but not that of LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA, LISA or Einstein Telescope. Models with red-tilted spectra or exceptionally tiny quantum corrections are also found to be non-detectable.

Multifractional theories: An updated review

Gianluca Calcagni

Summary: The review discusses the current status of multifractional theories, providing comparative tables for theoretical foundations, classical matter and gravity dynamics, cosmology, and experimental constraints. The application of the multifractional paradigm to quantum gravity is examined, along with clarification of unitarity in theories with integer-order derivatives.

Quantum scalar field theories with fractional operators

Gianluca Calcagni

Summary: We studied a class of perturbative scalar quantum field theories characterized by specific operators; some of them are ghost free, some are power-counting renormalizable, but cannot be both; for some of these theories, one-loop calculations result in unitary and finite theories, potentially valid at all orders.

Classical and quantum gravity with fractional operators

Gianluca Calcagni

Summary: In this work, a class of perturbative theories of quantum gravity based on fractional operators is proposed, with the construction of classical actions and derivation of equations of motion for each theory. The study shows that unitarity and power-counting renormalizability do not coexist in these theories, although one-loop unitarity and finiteness are possible in some cases. One of the theories is found to be unitary and infrared-finite, serving as a ghost-free model with large-scale modifications of general relativity.

Tree-level scattering amplitudes in nonlocal field theories

Leonardo Modesto, Gianluca Calcagni

Summary: In this study, it is demonstrated that a special class of nonlocal field theories exhibit consistency with linear and non-linear stability at the classical level, as well as unitarity and super-renormalizability or finiteness at the quantum level. Specifically, the n-point tree-level scattering amplitudes of these nonlocal theories are shown to be equivalent to those of the underlying local theory, including nonlocal gravity which matches Einstein's general relativity.

Measuring the propagation speed of gravitational waves with LISA

Tessa Baker, Gianluca Calcagni, Anson Chen, Matteo Fasiello, Lucas Lombriser, Katarina Martinovic, Mauro Pieroni, Mairi Sakellariadou, Gianmassimo Tasinato, Daniele Bertacca, Ippocratis D. Saltas

Summary: The possibility of transient deviations of the propagation speed of gravitational waves from the speed of light at low frequencies, based on modifications of General Relativity, is discussed. The impact of these deviations on the gravitational waveforms of black hole binary mergers detectable by the LISA mission is studied. Constraints on these deviations obtainable from individual systems and a population of sources are forecasted.

Gravitational potential and galaxy rotation curves in multi-fractional spacetimes

Gianluca Calcagni, Gabriele U. Varieschi

Summary: This study explores multi-fractional theories with integer-order derivatives, deriving the Poisson equation and Newtonian potential, with a focus on the behavior of gravitational potential under special values in the T-v theory. The article suggests testing this potential as an alternative to dark matter and discusses methods for further testing the model with other observables and an enlarged galaxy sample.

Mutual facilitation between activity-based anorexia and schedule-induced polydipsia in rats

Maria Jose Labajos, Gianluca Calcagni, Ricardo Pellon

Summary: The study aimed to investigate the potential relationship between drinking in SIP and running in ABA. Findings showed that the initial development of ABA facilitated the subsequent acquisition of SIP, while the first acquisition of SIP retarded the subsequent development of ABA. This suggests functional similarities between running in ABA and drinking in SIP, indicating that both behaviors are induced by the schedule/regime of intermittent food availability.

Quantum field theory with ghost pairs

Jiangfan Liu, Leonardo Modesto, Gianluca Calcagni

Summary: In this paper, we demonstrate that general local higher-derivative theories with only complex conjugate ghosts and normal real particles are unitary at any perturbative order in the loop expansion. By integrating the loop energies on complex paths resulting from the deformation of the purely imaginary paths, the proof of unitarity is established. The exclusion of complex ghosts from the spectrum of the theory, as commonly done for Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) ghosts, leads to the unitarity of a specific class of higher-derivative super-renormalizable or finite gravitational and gauge theories at any perturbative order.
