Abstract: The existence of static, spherically symmetric, self-gravitating scalar field solutions in the context of Born-Infeld gravity is explored. Upon a combination of analytical approximations and numerical methods, the equations for a free scalar field (without… read more here.

Abstract: Recently proposed Born-Infeld (BI) theories of gravity assume a constant BI parameter (κ). However, no clear consensus exists on the sign and value of κ. Recalling the Brans-Dicke (BD) approach, where a scalar field was… read more here.
