5-dimensional Chern-Simons gauge theory on an interval: Massive spin-2 theory from symmetry breaking via boundary conditions
In this note, we revisit the 4-dimensional theory of massive gravity through compactification of an extra dimension and geometric symmetry breaking. We dimensionally reduce the 5-dimensional topological Chern-Simons gauge theory of (anti) de Sitter group on an interval. We apply non-trivial boundary...
