Gravity From Topological Field Theory | J. Gegenberg

4 Feb 1999 | Journal: | Phys.Rev. D60 (1999) 024010 | Subject: | hep-th gr-qc | Abstract: | We construct a topological field theory which, on the one hand, generalizes BF theories in that there is non-trivial coupling to `topological matter fields’; and, on the other, generalizes the three-dimensional model of Carlip and Gegenberg to arbitrary dimensional manifolds. Like the three dimensional model, the theory can be considered to describe a gravitational field interacting with topological matter. In particular, in two dimensions, the model is that of gravity on a torus. In four dimensions, the model is shown to admit constant curvature black hole solutions. | Source: | arXiv, hep-th/9902041 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
