摘要：

We develope the analogue of S-duality for linearized gravity in (3 + 1)-dimensions. Our basic idea is to consider the self-dual (anti-self-dual) curvature tensor for linearized gravity in the context of the Macdowell-Mansouri formalism. We find that the strong-weak coupling duality for linearized gravity is an exact symmetry and implies small-large duality for the cosmological constant. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
