| Abstract | In De Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley massive gravity, to get the equations of motion, the square root tensor is assumed to be invertible in the variation of the action. However, this condition cannot be fulfilled when the reference metric is degenerate. This implies that the resulting equations of motion might be different from the case where the reference metric has full rank. In this paper, by generalizing the Moore-Penrose inverse to the cases of symmetric tensors on Lorentz manifolds, we get the equations of motion of the theory with a degenerate reference metric. It is found that the equations of motion are a little bit different from those in the nondegenerate cases. Based on the result of the equations of motion, for the (2 + n)-dimensional solutions with the symmetry of n-dimensional maximally symmetric space, we prove a generalized Birkhoff-type theorem in the case where the degenerate reference metric has rank n; i.e., we show that the solutions must be Schwarzschild type or Nariai-Bertotti-Robinson type under the given assumptions. |
