Nonlinear theories of spin-2 field in terms of Fierz variables
Abstract
Exceptional non linear Lagrangians for a spin-two field in terms of the Fierz variables are obtained using the method proposed by Lax. They are equivalent to the Born-Infeld Lagrangian for a spin-one field theory and are free from unbounded growth of wave velocities.
