Static spherically symmetric solutions for conformal gravity in three dimensions
Static spherically symmetric solutions for conformal gravity in three dimensions are found. Black holes and wormholes are included within this class. Asymptotically the black holes are spacetimes of arbitrary constant curvature, and they are conformally related to the matching of different solutions of constant curvature by means of an improper conformal transformation. The wormholes can be con...
متن کاملTopological gravity in dimensions two and four
Recent work on gravity in two dimensions has a natural generalization to four dimensions. 1. Basic definitions 1.1 The (symmetric monoidal) two-category (Gravity)d+1 has objects: compact oriented d-manifolds, with • morphisms V0 → V1 : (d+ 1)-manifolds W with ∂W ∼= V op 0 t V1, and • diffeomorphisms W̃ →W as two-morphisms. The category Mor(V0, V1) with cobordisms from V0 to V1 as objects and dif...
متن کاملGravity Resonance Spectroscopy and Einstein- Cartan Gravity
The qBounce experiment offers a new way of looking at gravitation based on quantum interference. An ultracold neutron is reflected in well-defined quantum states in the gravity potential of the Earth by a mirror, which allows to apply the concept of gravity resonance spectroscopy (GRS). This experiment with neutrons gives access to all gravity parameters as the dependences on distance, mass, cu...
متن کاملMassive gravity in three dimensions.
A particular higher-derivative extension of the Einstein-Hilbert action in three spacetime dimensions is shown to be equivalent at the linearized level to the (unitary) Pauli-Fierz action for a massive spin-2 field. A more general model, which also includes "topologically-massive" gravity as a special case, propagates the two spin-2 helicity states with different masses. We discuss the extensio...
متن کاملChiral Gravity in Three Dimensions
Three dimensional Einstein gravity with negative cosmological constant −1/l2 deformed by a gravitational Chern-Simons action with coefficient 1/μ is studied in an asymptotically AdS3 spacetime. It is argued to violate unitary or positivity for generic μ due to negativeenergy massive gravitons. However at the critical value μl = 1, the massive gravitons disappear and BTZ black holes all have mas...
