The Effects of the Gravitational Chern-Simons Term in the AdS2+1 Geometry
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the effect of the gravitational Chern-Simons term (GCST) in the (2+1)-dimensional anti-de Sitter (AdS2+1) geometry. In the context of the gauge gravity, we obtain black hole solution and its boundary WZW theory. The BTZ black hole solution can still be retrieved but its gravitational mass and angular momentum become different from their inherent values. The deformation on these quantities due to the GCST can be summarized as SO(1, 1) times rescaling. The boundary WZW theory is found to be chiral, i.e., composed of the right moving part and the left moving part with different Kac-Moody levels. The statistical entropy is proportional to the area only for the large levels and vanishing GCST limit, but its coefficient is not the correct order in the Newton constant G. Some related physics are discussed. Typeset using REVTEX ∗e-mail address; [email protected] 1

Brown-Henneaux’s Canonical Approach to Topologically Massive Gravity
We analyze the symmetry realized asymptotically on the two dimensional boundary of AdS3 geometry in topologically massive gravity, which consists of the gravitational Chern-Simons term as well as the usual Einstein-Hilbert and negative cosmological constant terms. Our analysis is based on the conventional canonical method and proceeds along the line completely parallel to the original Brown and...
متن کاملHolographic Description of Gravitational Anomalies
The holographic duality can be extended to include quantum theories with broken coordinate invariance leading to the appearance of the gravitational anomalies. On the gravity side one adds the gravitational Chern-Simons term to the bulk action which gauge invariance is only up to the boundary terms. We analyze in detail how the gravitational anomalies originate from the modified Einstein equati...
متن کاملLeptogenesis and tensor polarisation from a gravitational Chern-Simons term
Within an effective field theory derived from string theory, it may be reasonable for the action to contain the gravitational Chern-Simons (gCS) term, coupled to say the universal axion. During any era when the axion field is varying, the vacuum fluctuation of the gravitational wave amplitude will then be circularly polarised, generating an expectation value for the gCS term. The polarisation m...

When the gravitational Chern-Simons term is reduced from 3 to 2 dimensions, the lower dimensional theory supports a symmetry breaking solution and an associated kink. Kinks in general relativity bear a close relation to flat space kinks, governed by identical potentials.
متن کاملDEVELOPMENT IN STRING THEORY
The string theory is a fast moving subject, both physics wise and in the respect of mathematics. In order to keep up with the discipline it is important to move with new ideas which are being stressed. Here I wish to give extracts from new papers of ideas which I have recently found interesting. There are six papers which are involved: I ."Strings formulated directly in 4 dimensions " A. N...
