Asymptotic dynamics in 3D gravity with torsion

چکیده
We study the nature of boundary dynamics in the teleparallel 3D gravity. The asymptotic field equations with anti-de Sitter boundary conditions yield only two non-trivial boundary modes, related to a conformal field theory with classical central charge. After showing that the teleparallel gravity can be formulated as a Chern-Simons theory, we identify dynamical structure at the boundary as the Liouville theory.

Asymptotic symmetries in 3d gravity with torsion
Three-dimensional (3d) gravity has been used as a theoretical laboratory to test some of the conceptual problems of quantum gravity. The phase space structure of 3d gravity is known to be of great importance not only at the classical level, but also for a clear understanding of the related quantum structure [1,2]. In particular, the Virasoro algebra of the asymptotic symmetry plays a central ro...
متن کاملBlack hole entropy from the boundary conformal structure in 3D gravity with torsion
Asymptotic symmetry of the Euclidean 3D gravity with torsion is described by two independent Virasoro algebras with different central charges. Elements of this boundary conformal structure are combined with Cardy’s formula to calculate the black hole entropy.
متن کاملCanonical structure of topologically massive gravity with a cosmological constant
We study the canonical structure of three-dimensional topologically massive gravity with a cosmological constant, using the full power of Dirac’s method for constrained Hamiltonian systems. It is found that the dimension of the physical phase space is two per spacetime point, which corresponds to a single Lagrangian degree of freedom. The analysis of the AdS asymptotic region reveals a remarkab...
متن کاملElectric field in 3 D gravity with torsion
It is shown that in static and spherically symmetric configurations of the system of Maxwell field coupled to 3D gravity with torsion, at least one of the Maxwell field components has to vanish. Restricting our attention to the electric sector of the theory, we find an interesting exact solution, corresponding to the azimuthal electric field. Its geometric structure is to a large extent influen...
