We analyze the observational and theoretical constraints on ``Einstein-aether theory", a generally covariant theory of gravity coupled to a dynamical, unit, timelike vector field that breaks local Lorentz symmetry. The results of a computation of the remaining post-Newtonian parameters are reported. These are combined with other results to determine the joint post-Newtonian, vacuum-Cerenkov, nucleosynthesis, stability, and positive-energy constraints. All of these constraints are satisfied by parameters in a large two-dimensional region in the four-dimensional parameter space defining the theory.

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Exact static vacuum solution in Einstein-Aether theory parameterized by c14, with analytic extension showing naked singularities or wormhole geometries rather than black holes when c14 is nonzero.

  3. Reference Frames and Gravitational-Wave Polarizations: Symmetry Classification and Preferred-Frame Phenomenology

    gr-qc 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Derives boost transformations for GW polarizations, proposes symmetry classification without preferred frames, and analyzes preferred-frame effects in Bumblebee gravity including novel polarization conversion.

    gr-qc 2025-09 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    In quadratic-EMSG the self-acceleration of self-gravitating bodies vanishes at 1PN order and total linear momentum is conserved, consistent with binary-pulsar bounds.

  5. Hodge Dual Gauge Symmetry in Minimal Einstein-Aether Theory

    gr-qc 2025-04 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The minimal Einstein-aether vector field is the Hodge dual of a 3-form gauge field, making the two theories equivalent and showing that divergence-free aether fields are physically trivial.

  6. Gravitational radiations from periodic orbits around Einstein-\AE{}ther black holes

    gr-qc 2025-05 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    The authors present periodic orbits and quadrupole gravitational waveforms for a test mass around two Einstein-Æther black hole solutions, and claim observable æther-induced waveform changes.

  7. Modified theories of gravity at different curvature scales

    gr-qc 2025-02 unverdicted novelty 3.0 of 10

    A review that classifies modified gravity theories by the GR principles they preserve or violate, and maps their tests onto a curvature-compactness plane.
