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…
On the W-gravity spectrum and its G-structure
P. Bouwknegt, J. Mccarthy, K. Pilch
We present results for the BRST cohomology of $\cW[\bfg]$ minimal models coupled to $\cW[\bfg]$ gravity, as well as scalar fields coupled to $\cW[\bfg]$ gravity. In the latter case…
Ultra--Planck Scattering in D=3 Gravity Theories
S. Deser, J. McCarthy, Alan R. Steif
We obtain the high energy, small angle, 2-particle gravitational scattering amplitudes in topologically massive gravity (TMG) and its two non-dynamical constituents, Einstein and C…
Semi-infinite cohomology of W-algebras
P. Bouwknegt, J. McCarthy, K. Pilch
We generalize some of the standard homological techniques to $\cW$-algebras, and compute the semi-infinite cohomology of the $\cW_3$ algebra on a variety of modules. These computat…
