The abstract, sentence by sentence

arXiv listing abstract v1. Results and the main claim are underlined; .

We investigate the global structure of a recently discovered simple exact, non-stationary solution of topologically massive and new massive gravity with the asymptotic charges of an undeformed BTZ black hole. We establish the existence of a timelike singularity in the causal structure of the spacetime even in the absence of angular momentum. The dynamical trapping and event horizons are determined and we investigate the evolution of the outer horizon showing that it may increase or decrease with time, depending on the value of the mass parameter. Finally, we test two proposals for dynamical entropy on this solution, one of them depending on the Kodama vector. In addition we show that the Kodama vector leads to the correct entropy for all stationary black holes in 2+1 dimensions.

  • New Massive Gravity (NMG), proposed in 2009 by Bergshoeff, Hohm and Townsend [ref] (also called BHT massive gravity), has received a great deal of attention due to its remarkable properties, particularly in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence conjecture and because a variety of exact solutions have been found (see for example [ref] ).

  • By comparing the linearized equations of motion for massive modes of TMG and NMG (see [ref] for TMG and [ref] for NMG), it can be seen that a linear solution of TMG will also be a linear solution of NMG if we set $m^2=μ^2-1/2$[This is also what was found in [ref] for a solution of TMG of Petrov type N to be a solution of NMG.].
