Centrally extended symmetry algebra of asymptotically Gödel spacetimes

چکیده
We define an asymptotic symmetry algebra for three-dimensional Gödel spacetimes supported by a gauge field which turns out to be the semi-direct sum of the diffeomorphisms on the circle with two loop algebras. A class of fields admitting this asymptotic symmetry algebra and leading to well-defined conserved charges is found. The covariant Poisson bracket of the conserved charges is then shown to be centrally extended to the semi-direct sum of a Virasoro algebra and two affine algebras.

Symmetries of asymptotically flat four-dimensional spacetimes at null infinity revisited.
It is shown that the symmetry algebra of asymptotically flat spacetimes at null infinity in 4 dimensions should be taken as the semidirect sum of supertranslations with infinitesimal local conformal transformations and not, as usually done, with the Lorentz algebra. As a consequence, two-dimensional conformal field theory techniques will play as fundamental a role in this context of direct phys...
متن کاملAsymptotic symmetries of Schrödinger spacetimes
We discuss the asymptotic symmetry algebra of the Schrödinger-invariant metrics in d + 3 dimensions and its realization on finite temperature solutions of gravity coupled to matter fields. These solutions have been proposed as gravity backgrounds dual to non-relativistic CFTs with critical exponent z in d space dimensions. It is known that the Schrödinger algebra possesses an infinite-dimension...
متن کامل“Moduli Space” of Asymptotically Anti-de Sitter Spacetimes in (2+1)-Dimensions
Setting an ansats that the metric is expressible by a power series of the inverse radius and taking a particular gauge choice, we construct a “general solution” of (2+1)-dimensional Einstein’s equations with a negative cosmological constant in the case where the spacetime is asymptotically anti-de Sitter. Our general solution turns out to be parametrized by two centrally extended quadratic diff...
متن کاملThe S-Matrix of AdS/CFT and Yangian Symmetry
We review the algebraic construction of the S-matrix of AdS/CFT. We also present its symmetry algebra which turns out to be a Yangian of the centrally extended su(2|2) superalgebra.
متن کاملCanonical Theory of 2D Gravity Coupled to Conformal Matter
A canonical quantization for two dimensional gravity models, including a dilaton gravity model, is performed in a way suitable for the light-cone gauge. We extend the theory developed by Abdalla et.al.[1] and obtain the correlation functions by using the screening charges of the symmetry algebra. It turns out that the role of the cosmological constant term in the Liouville theory is played by t...
