Massive gravity with anisotropic scaling

We study a massive gravity theory which is Lorentz-violating all the way from ultraviolet to infrared energy scales. At short distances the theory breaks diffeomorphism invariance and time and space scale differently. Dynamical metric fields are introduced which, upon linearization over a Minkowski...
