Asymptotic structure of three-dimensional Maxwell Chern-Simons gravity coupled to spin-3 fields
2025, Dr. Concha-Aguilera, Patrick, Matulich, Javier, Pino, Daniel, Dra. Rodríguez-Durán, Evelyn
In this work we analyze the asymptotic symmetries of the three-dimensional Chern-Simons (CS) gravity theory for a higher spin extension of the so-called Maxwell algebra. We propose a generalized set of asymptotic boundary conditions for the aforementioned flat gravity theory and we show that the corresponding charge algebra defines a higher-spin extension of the max-bms3 algebra, which in turn corresponds the asymptotic symmetries of the Maxwell CS gravity. We also show that the hs3max-bms3 algebra can alternatively be obtained as a vanishing cosmological constant limit of three copies of the algebra, with three independent central charges.
Asymptotic symmetries of Maxwell Chern–Simons gravity with torsion
2020, Adami, H., Dr. Concha-Aguilera, Patrick, Rodriguez, E., Safari, H. R.
We present a three-dimensional Chern–Simons gravity based on a deformation of the Maxwell algebra. This symmetry allows introduction of a non-vanishing torsion to the Maxwell Chern–Simons theory, whose action recovers the Mielke–Baekler model for particular values of the coupling constants. By considering suitable boundary conditions, we show that the asymptotic symmetry is given by the bmsˆ3⊕vir algebra with three independent central charges.
On the supersymmetric extension of asymptotic symmetries in three spacetime dimensions
2020, Dr. Concha-Aguilera, Patrick, Dra. Rodríguez-Durán, Evelyn, Fierro-Mondaca, Octavio, Caroca, Ricardo
In this work we obtain known and new supersymmetric extensions of diverse asymptotic symmetries defined in three spacetime dimensions by considering the semigroup expansion method. The super-BMS3, the superconformal algebra and new infinite-dimensional superalgebras are obtained by expanding the super-Virasoro algebra. The new superalgebras obtained are supersymmetric extensions of the asymptotic algebras of the Maxwell and the so(2, 2)⊕ so(2, 1) gravity theories. We extend our results to the N = 2 and N = 4 cases and find that R-symmetry generators are required. We also show that the new infinite-dimensional structures are related through a flat limit → ∞.
Three-dimensional Maxwellian extended Bargmann supergravity
2020, Dr. Concha-Aguilera, Patrick, Dra. Rodríguez-Durán, Evelyn, Ravera, Lucrezia
We present a novel three-dimensional non-relativistic Chern-Simons supergravity theory invariant under a Maxwellian extended Bargmann superalgebra. We first study the non-relativistic limits of the minimal and the N = 2 Maxwell superalgebras. We show that a well-defined Maxwellian extended Bargmann supergravity requires to construct by hand a supersymmetric extension of the Maxwellian extended Bargmann algebra by introducing additional fermionic and bosonic generators. The new non-relativistic supergravity action presented here contains the extended Bargmann supergravity as a sub-case.
