Self-dual pp-wave solutions in chiral higher-spin gravity
Tung Tran
We show that chiral higher-spin gravity with a vanishing cosmological constant admits a class of exact self-dual pp-wave solutions derived from harmonic scalar functions and two pr…

-extended gravity from the IKKT matrix model
Alessandro Manta, Harold C. Steinacker, Tung Tran
We elaborate further on the one-loop effective action of the IKKT model on 3 + 1 dimensional covariant quantum spacetime in the presence of fuzzy extra dimensions. In particular, w…
