Covariant Symplectic Structure and Conserved Charges of Topologically Massive Gravity
Caner Nazaroglu, Yavuz Nutku, Bayram Tekin
We present the covariant symplectic structure of the Topologically Massive Gravity and find a compact expression for the conserved charges of generic spacetimes with Killing symmet…
Higgs Mechanism for New Massive Gravity and Weyl Invariant Extensions of Higher Derivative Theories
Suat Dengiz, Bayram Tekin
New Massive Gravity provides a non-linear extension of the Fierz-Pauli mass for gravitons in 2+1 dimensions. Here we construct a Weyl invariant version of this theory. When the Wey…
AdS Waves as Exact Solutions to Quadratic Gravity
Ibrahim Gullu, Metin Gurses, Tahsin Cagri Sisman +1
We give an exact solution of the quadratic gravity in D dimensions. The solution is a plane fronted wave metric with a cosmological constant. This metric solves not only the full q…
Critical Points of D-Dimensional Extended Gravities
S. Deser, Haishan Liu, H. Lu +3
We study the parameter space of D-dimensional cosmological Einstein gravity together with quadratic curvature terms. In D>4 there are in general two distinct (anti)-de Sitter vacua…
