Higher spins from Nambu-Chern-Simons theory
Alex S. Arvanitakis
We propose a new theory of higher spin gravity in three spacetime dimensions. This is defined by what we will call a Nambu-Chern-Simons (NCS) action; this is to a Nambu 3-algebra a…

On Solutions of Minimal Massive 3D Gravity
Alex S. Arvanitakis
We look at solutions of Minimal Massive Gravity (MMG), a generalisation of Topologically Massive Gravity (TMG) that improves upon its holographic properties. It is shown that gener…

Yang-Mills as massive Chern-Simons theory: a third way to three-dimensional gauge theories
Alex S. Arvanitakis, Alexander Sevrin, Paul K. Townsend
The Yang-Mills (YM) equation in three spacetime dimensions (3D) can be modified to include a novel parity-preserving interaction term, with inverse mass parameter, in addition to a…
