A massive graviton in topologically new massive gravity

High Energy Physics - Theory 2013-03-27 v2

Abstract

We investigate the topologically new massive gravity in three dimensions. It turns out that a single massive mode is propagating in the flat spacetime, comparing to the conformal Chern-Simons gravity which has no physically propagating degrees of freedom. Also we discuss the realization of the BMS/GCA correspondence.
