Twistors and the massive spinning particle
Luca Mezincescu, Alasdair J. Routh, Paul K. Townsend
Gauge-invariant twistor variables are found for the massive spinning particle with N-extended local worldline supersymmetry, in spacetime dimensions D=3,4,6. The twistor action is…
Twistor form of massive 6D superparticle
Alasdair J. Routh, Paul K. Townsend
The massive six-dimensional (6D) superparticle with manifest (n,0) supersymmetry is shown to have a supertwistor formulation in which its "hidden" (0,n) supersymmetry is also manif…
The Third Way to 3D Gravity
Eric Bergshoeff, Wout Merbis, Alasdair J. Routh +1
Consistency of Einstein's gravitational field equation imposes a "conservation condition" on the -tensor that is satisfied by (i) matter stress tensors,…
Matter coupling in 3D "Minimal Massive Gravity"
Alex S. Arvanitakis, Alasdair J. Routh, Paul K. Townsend
The "Minimal Massive Gravity" (MMG) model of massive gravity in three spacetime dimensions (which has the same anti-de Sitter (AdS) bulk properties as "Topologically Massive Gravit…
Minimal Massive 3D Gravity
Eric Bergshoeff, Olaf Hohm, Wout Merbis +2
We present an alternative to Topologically Massive Gravity (TMG) with the same "minimal" bulk properties; i.e. a single local degree of freedom that is realized as a massive gravit…
Chern-Simons-like Gravity Theories
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Olaf Hohm, Wout Merbis +2
A wide class of three-dimensional gravity models can be put into "Chern-Simons-like" form. We perform a Hamiltonian analysis of the general model and then specialise to Einstein-Ca…
