Physics:Jackiw–Teitelboim gravity

From HandWiki

The R = T model,[1] also known as Jackiw–Teitelboim gravity (named after Roman Jackiw and Claudio Teitelboim), is a theory of gravity with dilaton coupling in one spatial and one time dimension. It should not be confused[2][3] with the CGHS model or Liouville gravity. The action is given by

[math]\displaystyle{ S = \frac{1}{\kappa}\int d^2x\, \sqrt{-g}\, \Phi \left( R - \Lambda \right) }[/math]

The metric in this case is more amenable to analytical solutions than the general 3+1D case though a canonical reduction for the latter has recently been obtained.[4] For example, in 1+1D, the metric for the case of two mutually interacting bodies can be solved exactly in terms of the Lambert W function, even with an additional electromagnetic field.
