Twisted sectors in three-dimensional gravity
Twisted sectors –solutions to the equations of motion with nontrivial monodromies– of three dimensional Euclidean gravity are studied. We argue that upon quantization this new sector of the theory provides the necessary (and no more) degrees of freedom to account for the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of three-dimensional black holes.

متن کاملSectors of solutions in Three-dimensional Gravity and Black Holes
We examine the connection between three dimensional gravity with negative cosmological constant and two-dimensional CFT via the Chern-Simons formulation. A set of generalized spectral flow transformations are shown to yield new sectors of solutions. One implication is that the microscopic calculation of the entropy of the Bañados-Teitelboim-Zanelli (BTZ) black hole is corrected by a multiplicat...
متن کاملAn Orbifold Compactification with Three Families from Twisted Sectors
We obtain a three generational SU(3)c × SU(3)w ×U(1) 4 × [SO(12)×U(1)2]′ model from an orbifold construction with the requirement that three generations arise from twisted sectors. There exist supersymmetric vacua realizing the standard model. In one example the anomalous U(1) breaks the gauge symmetry down to SU(3)c × SU(2)w × U(1)Y × SO(12) .
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Gravity Reconsidered
We consider the problem of identifying the CFT’s that may be dual to pure gravity in three dimensions with negative cosmological constant. The c-theorem indicates that threedimensional pure gravity is consistent only at certain values of the coupling constant, and the relation to Chern-Simons gauge theory hints that these may be the values at which the dual CFT can be holomorphically factorized...
متن کاملGeneralized Twisted Sectors of Orbifolds
For a finitely generated discrete group Γ, the Γ-sectors of an orb-ifold Q are a disjoint union of orbifolds corresponding to homomorphisms from Γ into a groupoid presenting Q. Here, we show that the inertia orbifold and k-multi-sectors are special cases of the Γ-sectors, and that the Γ-sectors are orbifold covers of Leida's fixed-point sectors. In the case of a global quotient, we show that th...
