Perturbations of black holes in mass-varying massive gravity

Based on eigendecomposition and matrix perturbation theory, we propose an alternative method for analyzing perturbations in massive gravity that is applicable to both the base theory and its various modifications. We demonstrate the validity of this approach even in seemingly singular regimes. Applying this framework to mass-varying massive gravity, we compute perturbations for all constant-scalar Schwarzschild-(A)dS black hole solutions. We show that, under the condition $\beta = \alpha^2$, the tensor sector of these black holes reduces to that of general relativity, while the scalar sector remains free from tachyonic instabilities given appropriate parameter choices. A deeper relationship is also revealed between the solutions with generic parameters and those with $\beta = \alpha^2$: their solution manifolds intersect at a specific locus where the perturbation vanishes.

Relativistic star solutions in Mass-varying Massive Gravity with a diagonal metric

We investigate relativistic star solutions in Mass-Varying Massive Gravity (MVMG) with a diagonal metric. Contrary to the intuition that there is no fundamental difference between diagonal metric and non-diagonal metric solutions regarding relativistic stars, we find that with a diagonal metric, well-behaved relativistic star solutions may not exist except for trivial ones in which the graviton mass is a constant, whereas non-trivial relativistic star solutions had been found in MVMG with a non-diagonal metric. The reason is that with a diagonal metric, the field equations constitute a system of differential-algebraic equations of differential index-2 with two extra constraints that have a significant influence on the system, rendering the relativistic star solution with a non-trivial graviton mass configuration impossible in most cases.

No hair theorem in quasi-dilaton massive gravity

We investigate the static, spherically symmetric black hole solutions in the quasi-dilaton model and its generalizations, which are scalar extended dRGT massive gravity with a shift symmetry. We show that, unlike generic scalar extended massive gravity models, these theories do not admit static, spherically symmetric black hole solutions until the theory parameters in the dRGT potential is fine-tuned. When fine-tuned, the geometry of the static, spherically symmetric black hole is necessarily that of general relativity and the quasi-dilaton field is constant across the spacetime. The fine-tuning and the no hair theorem apply to black holes with flat, anti-de Sitter or de Sitter asymptotics.

Hairy black holes in scalar extended massive gravity

We construct static, spherically symmetric black hole solutions in scalar extended ghost-free massive gravity and show the existence of hairy black holes in this class of extension. While the existence seems to be a generic feature, we focus on the simplest models of this extension and find that asymptotically flat hairy black holes can exist without fine-tuning the theory parameters, unlike the bi-gravity extension, where asymptotical flatness requires fine-tuning in the parameter space. Like the bi-gravity extension, we are unable to obtain asymptotically dS regular black holes in the simplest models considered, but it is possible to obtain asymptotically AdS black holes.

Cosmological evolutions of $F(R)$ nonlinear massive gravity

Recently a new extended nonlinear massive gravity model has been proposed which includes the $F(R)$ modifications to dRGT model.We follow the $F(R)$ nonlinear massive gravity and study its implications on cosmological evolutions. We derive the critical points of the cosmic system and study the corresponding kinetics by performing the phase-plane analysis.

Dynamical analysis of the cosmology of mass-varying massive gravity

We study cosmological evolutions of the generalized model of nonlinear massive gravity in which the graviton mass is given by a rolling scalar field and is varying along time. By performing dynamical analysis, we derive the critical points of this system and study their stabilities. These critical points can be classified into two categories depending on whether they are identical with the traditional ones obtained in General Relativity. We discuss the cosmological implication of relevant critical points.
