We study the role of boundary conditions on the one loop partition function of ${\cal N}=2$ chiral multiplet of R-charge $\Delta$ on $AdS_2\times S^1$. The chiral multiplet is coupled to a background vector multiplet which preserves…

We re-examine the computation of the one-loop partition function of Type II supergravity theory compactified on $AdS_3 \times \mathbf{S}^3 \times X$, where $X$ can be $K_3$, $T^4$ and $\mathbf{S}^3 \times \mathbf{S}^1$. These backgrounds…
This paper studies the semiclassical approximation of simple supergravity in Riemannian four-manifolds with boundary, within the framework of $\zeta$-function regularization. The massless nature of gravitinos, jointly with the presence of a…
New chiral boundary conditions are found for quantum gravity with matter on AdS3. The associated asymptotic symmetry group is generated by a single right-moving U(1) Kac-Moody-Virasoro algebra with c_R = 3l/2G. The Kac-Moody zero mode…
In this note we investigate the generalized massive gravity in asymptotically $AdS_3$ spacetime by combining the two mass terms of topological massive gravity and new massive gravity theory. We study the linearized excitations around the…
We continue the study of the one-loop partition function of AdS$_3$ gravity with focus on the square-integrability condition on the fluctuating fields. In a previous work we found that the Brown-Henneaux boundary conditions follow directly…
The problem of boundary conditions in a supersymmetric theory of quantum cosmology is studied, with application to the one-loop prefactor in the quantum amplitude. Our background cosmological model is flat Euclidean space bounded by a…
We consider the various perturbations of self-dual warped AdS$_3$ black hole and obtain the exact expressions of quasinormal modes by imposing the vanishing Dirichlet boundary condition at asymptotic infinity. It is expected that the…
We calculate the contributions to the one-loop determinant for transverse traceless gravitons in an $n+3$-dimensional Schwarzschild black hole background in the large dimension limit, due to the $SO(n+2)$-type tensor and vector…
We solve the wave equations of arbitrary integer spin fields in the BTZ black hole background and obtain exact expressions for their quasinormal modes. We show that these quasinormal modes precisely agree with the location of the poles of…
We examine the boundary behaviour of the gauged N=(2,0) supergravity in D=3 coupled to an arbitrary number of scalar supermultiplets which parametrize a Kahler manifold. In addition to the gravitational coupling constant, the model depends…
We revisit the description of the space of asymptotically AdS3 solutions of pure gravity in three dimensions with a negative cosmological constant as a collection of coadjoint orbits of the Virasoro group. Each orbit corresponds to a set of…
Recent work in the literature has studied a new set of local boundary conditions for the quantized gravitational field, where the spatial components of metric perturbations, and ghost modes, are subject to Robin boundary conditions, whereas…
We describe a new class of boundary conditions for AdS_{d+1} under which the boundary metric becomes a dynamical field. The key technical point is to show that contributions from boundary counter-terms in the bulk gravitational action…
The graviton 1-loop partition function is calculated for Euclidean generalised massive gravity (GMG) using AdS heat kernel techniques. We find that the results fit perfectly into the AdS/(L)CFT picture. Conformal Chern-Simons gravity, a…
We develop the method of Green's function to evaluate the one loop determinants that arise in localization of supersymmetric field theories on $AdS$ spaces. The theories we study have at least ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetry and normalisable…
We propose a new method to calculate the greybody factor in the $AdS_3$. This is based on both the non-normalizable modes of a test field($\Phi_i$) and $AdS_3$/CFT correspondence. Such non-normalizable modes serve as classical,…
