Gauge theory formulation of hyperbolic gravity

Abstract We formulate the most general gravitational models with constant negative curvature (“hyperbolic gravity”) on an arbitrary orientable two-dimensional surface of genus g with b circle boundaries in terms of a PSL(2, ℝ) ∂ gauge theory of flat connections. This includes the usual JT gravity wi...
