Dual composition of odd-dimensional models

TL;DR

This paper explores a dual composition framework for odd-dimensional models, interpreting them as a doublet of chiral models, with applications across quantum mechanics, field theory, and gravity, including topologically massive gravity.

Contribution

It introduces a novel dual composition approach for odd-dimensional models, providing a unified interpretation and detailed analysis of topologically massive gravity.

Findings

Dual composition effectively describes odd-dimensional models as chiral doublets.

Application to topologically massive gravity reveals new insights.

Examples demonstrate the broad applicability across physics domains.

Abstract

A general way of interpreting odd dimensional models as a doublet of chiral models is discussed. Based on the equations of motion this dual composition is illustrated. Examples from quantum mechanics, field theory and gravity are considered. Specially the recently advocated topologically massive gravity is analysed in some details.
