abstract
We reformulate Einstein's theory of gravity, isolating the conformal degree of freedom in a covariant way. This is done by introducing a physical metric defined in terms of an auxiliary metric and a scalar field appearing through its first derivatives. The resulting equations of motion split into a traceless equation obtained through variation with respect to the auxiliary metric and an additional differential equation for the trace part. As a result the conformal degree of freedom becomes dynamical even in the absence of matter. We show that this extra degree of freedom can mimic cold dark matter.

The Paneitz operator in 4D belongs to extended mimetic gravity and is constrained by gravitational wave propagation speed.
Higher-derivative extension of dark matter yields an imperfect fluid that matches pressureless dust on homogeneous backgrounds but generates acceleration and vorticity to avoid caustic singularities in inhomogeneous cosmologies.
