V. B. Bezerra (UFPb), J. Spinelly (UFPb), C. Romero (UFPb)

TL;DR
This paper extends Jackiw's scalar theory to (2+1)-dimensional gravity, finds a black hole solution, and discusses the theory's limitations regarding the Newtonian limit.
Contribution
It introduces an extension of Jackiw's scalar theory to (2+1) dimensions and provides a new black hole solution within this framework.
Findings
A black hole solution is found in the extended theory.
The theory generally lacks a Newtonian limit, except for special cases.
The extension offers insights into three-dimensional gravity models.
Abstract
We study some aspects of three-dimensional gravity by extending Jackiw's scalar theory to (2+1)-dimensions and find a black hole solution. We show that in in general this teory does not possess a Newtonian limit except for special metric configurations.
