Lineal gravity from planar gravity.
We show how to obtain the two dimensional black hole action by a dimensional reduction of the three dimensional Einstein action with a non-zero cosmological constant. Starting from the Chern-Simons formulation of 2+1 gravity, we obtain the 1+1-dimensional gauge formulation given by Verlinde. Remarkably, the proposed reduction shares the relevant features of the formulation of Cangemi and Jackiw...
متن کاملPoincaré Gauge Theories for Lineal Gravity
We have shown that two of the most studied models of lineal gravities – Liouville gravity and a “string-inspired” model exhibiting the main characteristic features of a black-hole solution – can be formulated as gauge invariant theories of the Poincaré group. The gauge invariant couplings to matter (particles, scalar and spinor fields) and explicit solutions for some matter field configurations...
متن کاملQuantum states of string-inspired lineal gravity.
We construct quantum states for a (1+1) dimensional gravity-matter model that is also a gauge theory based on the centrally extended Poincaré group. Explicit formulas are found, which exhibit interesting structures. For example wave functionals are gauge invariant except for a gauge non-invariant phase factor that is the Kirillov-Kostant 1-form on the (co-) adjoint orbit of the group. However n...
متن کاملExact Relativistic Two - Body Motion in Lineal Gravity
The N-body problem for one-dimensional self-gravitating systems has been often studied to test theories of galactic evolution and statistical mechanics. We consider the general relativistic version of this system and obtain the first exact solution to the 2-body problem in which spacetime is not flat. In the equal mass case we obtain an explicit expression for the proper separation of the two m...
متن کاملParticles on a Circle in Canonical Lineal Gravity
Abstract A description of the canonical formulation of lineal gravity minimally coupled to N point particles in a circular topology is given. The Hamiltonian is found to be equal to the time-rate of change of the extrinsic curvature multiplied by the proper circumference of the circle. Exact solutions for pure gravity and for gravity coupled to a single particle are obtained. The presence of a ...
