A Stress Tensor For Anti-de Sitter Gravity
We propose a procedure for computing the boundary stress tensor associated with a gravitating system in asymptotically anti-de Sitter space. Our definition is free of ambiguities encountered by previous attempts, and correctly reproduces the masses and angular momenta of various spacetimes. Via the AdS/CFT correspondence, our classical result is interpretable as the expectation value of the str...
متن کاملAsymptotically Anti-de Sitter Spacetimes and Their Stress Energy Tensor
We consider asymtotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes in general dimensions. We review the origin of infrared divergences in the on-shell gravitational action, and the construction of the renormalized on-shell action by the addition of boundary counterterms. In odd dimensions, the renormalized on-shell action is not invariant under bulk diffeomorphisms that yield conformal transformations in the ...
متن کاملFermions in (Anti) de Sitter Gravity in Four Dimensions
Fermions in (anti) de Sitter gravity theory in four dimensions are considered. Especially we propose new fermion actions to derive a Weyl or Majorana fermion action if we break the AdS (dS) group to the Lorentz group in curved spacetime. E-mail: [email protected], 2 E-mail: [email protected]
متن کاملAsymptotic Isometry and Two Dimensional Anti-de Sitter Gravity
In low dimensional gravity on anti-de sitter space there exists a possibility that the asymptotic isometry is raised to a Virasoro symmetry living at spatial infinity. We discuss in detail asymptotic isometry of the most general anti-de sitter dilaton gravity in two dimensions. From analysis of the boundary dynamics it turns out that the Virasoro symmetry is not preserved in all the models. Mor...
متن کاملAnti de Sitter Gravity from BF-Chern-Simons-Higgs Theories
It is shown that an action inspired from a BF and Chern-Simons model, based on the AdS4 isometry group SO(3, 2), with the inclusion of a Higgs potential term, furnishes the MacDowell-MansouriChamseddine-West action for gravity, with a Gauss-Bonnet and cosmological constant term. The AdS4 space is a natural vacuum of the theory. Using Vasiliev’s procedure to construct higher spin massless fields...
