We need to use the fastest propagation for analysis of causal structure. Questions When do superluminal modes appear? Are black holes well-defined? Where is the horizon in the sense of causality? C.

11 Gravity theory Many complications h nonlinear kinetic terms h n :: : graviton ::@h :: Nonlinear kinetic terms make the discussion non-trivial. constraints The structures of kinetic term depend on constraints.. gauges Due to gauge, some variables are not physical. General Relativity The causal structure has been well studied, and gravitational waves propagate with speed of light.

37 Summary In GB gravity, gravitational propagation potentially becomes superluminal. Causal structure based on null curve is meaningless. We need to analyze it by using the fastest propagation. Causal structure is analyzed with method of characteristics, which is powerful technique. Killing horizon is the event horizon in the sense of causality. On spherically symmetric background, R AB U A U B = 0 R AB U A U B > 0 R AB U A U B < 0 luminal. subluminal. superluminal. gravitational Cherenkov Acausality? Need to check it.
