Isolated critical point from Lovelock gravity (2014, background): “5 Note there is a certain similarity with a class of Chern–Simons theories [20], for which the Lovelock couplings obey (with d odd)”
Multiple reentrant phase transitions and triple points in Lovelock thermodynamics (2014, background): “for which the local Lorentz invariance of the Lovelock action is enhanced to a local (A)dS symmetry and the theory belongs to the class of Chern-Simons theories [56].”
Modified Gravity and Cosmology (2011, background): “This is known as the Chern-Simons limit (at least in odd dimensions) [1297, 344], and corresponds to the case where the two roots coincide.”
Black hole chemistry: thermodynamics with Lambda (2016, background): “a special class of theories, called Chern–Simons gravity [77], arises in odd dimensions for the choice α̂p = `2p−2n+1 2n− 2p− 1 ( n− 1 p ) p = 1, 2, .”
Lovelock black holes with a nonlinear Maxwell field (2008, unknown): “(See [8] and references therein.”
