[Marija Dimitrijevic Ciric]

Zdravo svima,

evo najave seminara, koji ce u petak 15. aprila 2022. odrzati Dusan 
Djordjevic (Fizicki fakultet, Beograd)

Naslov: Noncommutative D=5 Chern-Simons Gravity: Kaluza-Klein Reduction 
and Chiral Gravitational Anomaly

Asptrakt: Chern-Simons (CS) theory has greatly influenced physics and 
physicists during the past half-century. In this seminar, we will review 
some basic facts about Chern-Simons Lagrangians defined on some 
(2n-1)-dimensional manifold. We will then show how CS theory can be 
connected with gravity. Our focus will be on an SO(4,2) CS gravity in 
five dimensions and its connections with four-dimensional gravitation. 
Furthermore, we will analyse the noncommutative deformation of SO(4,2) 
CS gravity using the geometric Siberg-Witten map. This theory has a 
nontrivial first-order correction in \theta. By performing Kalutza-Klein 
dimensional reduction and suitable symmetry breaking, we obtain an 
effective, four-dimensional gravity theory that has Einstein-Hilbert 
action with (negative) cosmological constant as its classical 
(commutative) limit. We then proceed to analyse some concrete solutions 
of the field equations. We show that AdS space-time remains a solution 
after including the first-order corrections. On the other hand, 
AdS-Schwarzschild black hole solution develops a torsion that we 
explicitly compute. Moreover, we will see that this modified solution 
implies the existence of a chiral gravitational anomaly if one couples 
massless Dirac fermions to this NC background.

This seminar is based on arXiv:2203.05020
