Abstract

The Hamiltonian analysis for the linearized λR gravity plus a Chern-Simons term is performed. The first-class and second-class constraints for arbitrary values of λ are presented, and one physical degree of freedom is reported. The second-class constraints are removed, and the corresponding generalized Dirac brackets are constructed; then, the difference between theories with different values of λ is remarked.
