Consistent boundary conditions for cosmological topologically massive gravity at the chiral point

High Energy Physics - Theory 2010-10-29 v6 General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology

Abstract

We show that cosmological topologically massive gravity at the chiral point allows not only Brown-Henneaux boundary conditions as consistent boundary conditions, but slightly more general ones which encompass the logarithmic primary found in 0805.2610 as well as all its descendants.

6 pages, v4: included consequences of erratum 0910.1706 in (14), (16) and added new Refs, v5: corrected e-print number in Ref. [18] v6: Corrected, again, typos in Eqs. (10) and (11) that were removed in v3, but mysteriously reappeared in v4 and v5
