| contents | New covariant theories of emergent modified gravity exist not only in spherically symmetric models, as previously found, but also in polarized Gowdy systems that have a local propagating degree of freedom. Several explicit versions are derived here, depending on various modification functions. These models do not have instabilities from higher time derivatives, and a large subset is compatible with gravitational waves and minimally coupled massless matter fields travelling at the same speed. Interpreted as models of loop quantum gravity, covariant Hamiltonian constraints derived from the covariance conditions found in polarized Gowdy systems are more restricted than those in spherical symmetry, requiring new forms of holonomy modifications with an anisotropy dependence that has not been considered before. Assuming homogeneous space, the models provide access to the full anisotropy parameters of modified Bianchi I dynamics, in which case different fates of the classical singularity are realized depending on the specific class of modifications. |
