Manifest gravitational duality near anti de Sitter space-time

High Energy Physics - Theory 2019-11-13 v2

Abstract

We derive a manifestly duality-invariant formulation of the action principle for linearized gravity on anti de Sitter background. The analysis is based on the two-potential formalism, obtained upon resolution of the constraints in the Hamiltonian formulation. We discuss the relevance of our result in the context of holography.
