On the ambiguities in the effective action in Lorentz-violating gravity

High Energy Physics - Theory 2008-11-26 v2

Abstract

We investigate the occurrence of ambiguities for Lorentz-violating gravitational Chern-Simons term. It turns out that this term is accompanied by a coefficient depending on an undetermined parameter, due to an arbitrariness in the choice of the conserved current.
