Consistent boundary conditions for cosmological topologically massive gravity at the chiral point

TL;DR

This paper demonstrates that at the chiral point, cosmological topologically massive gravity admits a broader class of boundary conditions than previously recognized, including those accommodating logarithmic primaries and their descendants.

Contribution

It extends the set of consistent boundary conditions for cosmological topologically massive gravity at the chiral point to include more general cases.

Findings

Broader boundary conditions are consistent at the chiral point.

Logarithmic primaries and descendants are encompassed.

Enhanced understanding of boundary conditions in topologically massive gravity.

Abstract

We show that cosmological topologically massive gravity at the chiral point allows not only Brown-Henneaux boundary conditions as consistent boundary conditions, but slightly more general ones which encompass the logarithmic primary found in 0805.2610 as well as all its descendants.
