Weyl Covariant Quadratic Curvature Gravity in 3-Dimensional Riemann-Cartan-Weyl Space-Times
arXiv:1906.11552 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.100.044010
Abstract
We discuss locally Weyl (scale) covariant generalisation of quadratic curvature gravity theory in three dimensions using Riemann-Cartan-Weyl space-times. We show that this procedure of Weyl gauging yields a consistent generalisation for a particular class of quadratic curvature gravity theories which includes the New Massive Gravity theory.
