CFT Dual for Timelike Geodesic in Lorentzian dS
Xing Huang, Chen-Te Ma
We construct the Euclidean CFT dual of a generic massive scalar in Lorentzian dS via analytic continuation. The resulting defect defines a -invariant state t…

Modular Average and Weyl Anomaly in Two-Dimensional Schwarzian Theory
Xing Huang, Chen-Te Ma
The gauge formulation of Einstein gravity in AdS background leads to a boundary theory that breaks modular symmetry and loses the covariant form. We examine the Weyl anomaly fo…
