We study anti-de Sitter black holes in 2 + 1 dimensions in terms of Chern–Simons gauge theory of the anti-de Sitter group coupled to a source. Taking the source to be an anti-de Sitter state specified by its Casimir invariants, we show how all the relevant features of the black hole are accounted for. The requirement that the source be a unitary representation leads to a discrete tower of excited states which provide a microscopic model for the black hole.

A novel Chern–Simons E8 gauge theory of gravity in D = 15 based on an octicE8 invariant expression in D = 16 (recently constructed by Cederwall and Palmkvist) is developed. A grand unification model of gravity with the other forces is very plausible within the framework of a supersymmetric extension (to incorporate spacetime fermions) of this Chern–Simons E8 gauge theory. We review the construction showing why the ordinary 11D Chern–Simons gravity theory (based on the Anti de Sitter group) can be embedded into a Clifford-algebra valued gauge theory and that an E8 Yang–Mills field theory is a small sector of a Clifford (16) algebra gauge theory. An E8 gauge bundle formulation was instrumental in understanding the topological part of the 11-dim M-theory partition function. The nature of this 11-dim E8 gauge theory remains unknown. We hope that the Chern–Simons E8 gauge theory of gravity in D = 15 advanced in this work may shed some light into solving this problem after a dimensional reduction.

For a recently proposed pure gauge theory in three dimensions, without a Chern–Simons term, we calculate the static interaction potential within the structure of the gauge-invariant variables formalism. As a consequence, a confining potential is obtained. This result displays a marked qualitative departure from the usual Maxwell–Chern–Simons theory.

We propose a gravitation theory in 4 dimensional space-time obtained by compacting to 4 dimensions the five dimensional topological Chern-Simons theory with the gauge group SO(1,5) or SO(2,4) – the de Sitter or anti-de Sitter group of 5-dimensional space-time. In the resulting theory, torsion, which is solution of the field equations as in any gravitation theory in the first order formalism, is not necessarily zero. However, a cosmological solution with zero torsion exists, which reproduces the Lambda-CDM cosmological solution of General Relativity. A realistic solution with spherical symmetry is also obtained.

We investigate a three-dimensional gauge theory modeled on Chern–Simons theory. The Lagrangian is most compactly written in terms of a two-index tensor that can be decomposed into fields with spins zero, one, and two. These all mix under the gauge transformation. The background-field method of quantization is used in conjunction with operator regularization to compute the real part of the two-point function for the scalar field.

We clarify the role of Drinfeld doubles and κ-Poincaré symmetries in quantized (2+1)-gravity and Chern–Simons theory. We discuss the conditions under which a given Hopf algebra symmetry is compatible with a Chern–Simons theory and determine this compatibility explicitly for the Drinfeld doubles and κ-Poincaré symmetries associated with the isometry groups of (2+1)-gravity. In particular, we show that κ-Poincaré symmetries with a timelike deformation are not directly associated with (2+1)-gravity. The association between these κ-Poincaré symmetries and Chern–Simons theory is possible only in the de Sitter case and the relevant Chern–Simons theory is physically inequivalent to (2+1)-gravity.

AbstractWe consider asymptotically AdS black hole solutions in Einstein Gauss Bonnet gravity in presence of string clouds. As in the case of black hole solutions in Gauss Bonnet gravity, it admits three black hole solutions in presence of string clouds as well within a region of the parameter space. Using holography, we have studied the quark–antiquark distance and binding energy in the dual gauge theory.

We construct analytical charged anti-de Sitter (AdS) black holes surrounded by perfect fluids in four dimensional Rastall gravity. Then, we discuss the thermodynamics and phase transitions of charged AdS black holes immersed in regular matter like dust and radiation, or exotic matter like quintessence, ΛCDM type, and phantom fields. Surrounded by phantom field, the charged AdS black hole demonstrates a new phenomenon of reentrant phase transition (RPT) when the parameters Q, Np, and ψ satisfy some certain condition, along with the usual small/large black hole (SBH/LBH) phase transition for the surrounding dust, radiation, quintessence, and cosmological constant fields.

We consider noncommutative BTZ black hole solutions in two different coordinate systems, the polar and rectangular coordinates. The analysis is carried out by obtaining noncommutative solutions of U(1, 1) × U(1, 1) Chern-Simons theory on AdS3 in the two coordinate systems via the Seiberg-Witten map. This is based on the noncommutative extension of the equivalence between the classical BTZ solution and the solution of ordinary SU(1, 1) × SU(1, 1) Chern-Simons theory on AdS3. The obtained solutions in these noncommutative coordinate systems become different in the first order of the noncommutativity parameter θ.

The duality between the large and small compactification radii in string theory (bosonic) is considered in the open topological membrane theory. The 2+1 analog of this R→α′/R duality is the duality between large and small scales in the corresponding topologically massive gauge theory with the spontaneous breaking of gauge invariance. This 2+1 duality is a consequence of the equivalence between the Chern-Simons theory with the mass term and the topologically massive gauge theory.
