Circularly polarized scalar induced gravitational waves from the Chern-Simons modified gravity

W Gravity From Chern–Simons Theory

Starting with three dimensional Chern–Simons theory with gauge group Sl(N, IR), we derive an action Scov invariant under both left and right WN transformations. We give an interpretation of Scov in terms of anomalies, and discuss its relation with Toda theory. e-mail: [email protected] e-mail: [email protected]

How do black holes spin in Chern-Simons modified gravity?

No Kerr-like exact solution has yet been found in Chern-Simons modified gravity. Intrigued by this absence, we study stationary and axisymmetric metrics that could represent the exterior field of spinning black holes. For the standard choice of the background scalar, the modified field equations decouple into the Einstein equations and additional constraints. These constraints eliminate essenti...

Holography with Gravitational Chern-Simons

The holographic description in the presence of gravitational Chern-Simons term is studied. The modified gravitational equations are integrated by using the FeffermanGraham expansion and the holographic stress-energy tensor is identified. The stressenergy tensor has both conformal anomaly and gravitational or, if re-formulated in terms of the zweibein, Lorentz anomaly. We comment on the structur...
