k-Essence, superluminal propagation, causality and emergent geometry

preprint2007arXivOpen access

Abstract

The k-essence theories admit in general the superluminal propagation of the perturbations on classical backgrounds. We show that in spite of the superluminal propagation the causal paradoxes do not arise in these theories and in this respect they are not less safe than General Relativity.
