چکیده
We suggest a new spin-4 self-dual model (parity singlet) and parity doublet in $D=2+1$. They are of higher order derivatives described by totally symmetric rank-4 tensor without extra auxiliary fields. Despite the they ghost free. find gauge invariant field combinations which allow us to show that canonical structure (spin-3) models follows same pattern its spin-2 (spin-1) counterpart after redefinitions. For $s=1,2,3,4$, spin-$s$ $2s-1$ $2s$ can be written terms three invariants. The cases $s=3$ $s=4$ restricted conformal spin symmetry as principle for defining linearized topologically massive gravity "New Massive Gravity" arbitrary integer spins. A key role our approach is played fact Cotton $D=2+1$ has only two independent components any spin.

Renormalizability of Topologically Massive Gravity
We consider renormalizability of topologically massive gravity in three space-time dimensions. With a usual parametrization of the metric tensor, we establish the statement that topologically massive gravity is in fact renormalizable. In this proof, we make use of not only a recently found, new infrared regularization method of scalar mode but also a covariant ultraviolet regulator with a speci...

متن کاملThe black holes of topologically massive gravity
We show that an analytical continuation of the Vuorio solution to three-dimensional topologically massive gravity leads to a two-parameter family of black hole solutions, which are geodesically complete and causally regular within a certain parameter range. No observers can remain static in these spacetimes. We discuss their global structure, and evaluate their mass, angular momentum, and entro...
متن کاملSpinor formulation of topologically massive gravity
In the framework of real 2-component spinors in three dimensional spacetime we present a description of topologically massive gravity (TMG) in terms of differential forms with triad scalar coefficients. This is essentially a real version of the Newman-Penrose formalism in general relativity. A triad formulation of TMG was considered earlier by Hall, Morgan and Perjes, however, due to an unfortu...
متن کاملCircular symmetry in topologically massive gravity
We re-derive, compactly, a topologically massive gravity (TMG) decoupling theorem: source-free TMG separates into its Einstein and Cotton sectors for spaces with a hypersurface-orthogonal Killing vector, here concretely for circular symmetry. We then generalize the theorem to include matter; surprisingly, the single Killing symmetry also forces conformal invariance, requiring the sources to be ...
