Extremal Higher Spin Black Holes
Máximo Bañados, Alejandra Castro, Alberto Faraggi +1
The gauge sector of three-dimensional higher spin gravities can be formulated as a Chern-Simons theory. In this context, a higher spin black hole corresponds to a flat connection w…

Chern-Simons Gravity and Holographic Anomalies
M. Banados, A. Schwimmer, S. Theisen
We present a holographic treatment of Chern-Simons (CS) gravity theories in odd dimensions. We construct the associated holographic stress tensor and calculate the Weyl anomalies o…
