Thermodynamics of Rotating Charged Black Branes in Third Order Lovelock Gravity and the Counterterm Method
We generalize the quasilocal definition of the stress energy tensor of Einstein gravity to the case of third order Lovelock gravity, by introducing the surface terms that make the action welldefined. We also introduce the boundary counterterm that removes the divergences of the action and the conserved quantities of the solutions of third order Lovelock gravity with zero curvature boundary at c...
متن کاملSpacetimes with Longitudinal and Angular Magnetic Fields in Third Order Lovelock Gravity
M. H. Dehghani N. Bostani Physics Department and Biruni Observatory, College of Sciences, Shiraz University, Shiraz 71454, Iran Research Institute for Astrophysics and Astronomy of Maragha (RIAAM), Maragha, Iran Abstract We obtain two new classes of magnetic brane solutions in third order Lovelock gravity. The first class of solutions yields an (n + 1)-dimensional spacetime with a longitudinal ...
متن کاملShear Viscosity from Gauss-Bonnet Gravity with a Dilaton Coupling
We calculate the shear viscosity of field theories with gravity duals of Gauss-Bonnet gravity with a non-trivial dilaton using AdS/CFT. We find that the dilaton filed has a non-trivial contribution to the ratio of shear viscosity over entropy density and after imposing causal constraint for the boundary field theory, the new lower bound 4/25π, obtained from pure Gauss-Bonnet gravity, may have a...
متن کاملIntersecting hypersurfaces and Lovelock Gravity
A theory of gravity in higher dimensions is considered. The usual Einstein-Hilbert action is supplemented with Lovelock terms, of higher order in the curvature tensor. These terms are important for the low energy action of string theories. The intersection of hypersurfaces is studied in the Lovelock theory. The study is restricted to hypersurfaces of co-dimension 1, (d− 1)-dimensional submanifo...
متن کاملPerturbative formalism of Lovelock gravity
In this work we develop a perturbative formalism for the treatment of Lovelock theories of gravity. We consider in detail D-dimensional models in Lovelock gravity with an induced metric given by the product of the metrics of two maximally symmetric spaces. We first explicitly obtain the Lovelock action, Hamiltonian constraint, gravitational momenta, and dynamical equations for this type of mini...
