abstract

A particular higher-derivative extension of the Einstein-Hilbert action in three spacetime dimensions is shown to be equivalent at the linearized level to the (unitary) Pauli-Fierz action for a massive spin-2 field. A more general model, which also includes `topologically-massive' gravity as a special case, propagates the two spin 2 helicity states with different masses. We discuss the extension to massive ${\cal N}$-extended supergravity, and we present a `cosmological' extension that admits an anti-de Sitter vacuum.

Cosmological higher-curvature gravities

gr-qc · 2023-11-20 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Higher-curvature gravities are constructed in which both FLRW backgrounds and linearized scalar perturbations obey at most second-order differential equations.

(Super-)renormalizable hairy meronic black holes

hep-th · 2026-04-28 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Analytical black hole solutions are constructed in Einstein-Maxwell-Yang-Mills theory with conformally coupled scalars, generalizing MTZ and AC solutions by including non-Abelian gauge fields determined by horizon curvature.
