Chiral ring in the 4D W_3 string
Jim McCarthy
I summarize some recent results obtained in collaboration with P.~Bouwknegt and K.~Pilch on the spectrum of physical states in $\cW_3$ gravity coupled to matter. In particula…

Nonsymmetric Gravity has Unacceptable Global Asymptotics
T. Damour, S. Deser, J. McCarthy
We analyze the radiative aspects of nonsymmetric gravity theory to show that, in contrast to General Relativity, its nonstationary solutions cannot simultaneously exhibit acceptabl…

Some aspects of free field resolutions in 2D CFT with application to the quantum Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction
P. Bouwknegt, J. McCarthy, K. Pilch
We review some aspects of the free field approach to two-dimensional conformal field theories. Specifically, we discuss the construction of free field resolutions for the integrabl…
