Holography and the Weyl anomaly

Abstract

We review our calculation of the Weyl anomaly for d-dimensional conformal field theories that have a description in terms of a (d + 1)-dimensional gravity theory.

7 pages. Talk delivered at the 22nd Johns Hopkins Workshop in Goteborg, Sweden, the 32nd International Symposium Ahrenshoop in Buckow, Germany, and the conference `Quantum aspects of gauge theories, supersymmetry and unification' in Corfu, Greece, to appear in the proceedings
