Conformal Renormalization of topological black holes in AdS
Giorgos Anastasiou, Ignacio J. Araya, Cristobal Corral +1
We present a streamlined proof that any Einstein-AdS space is a solution of the Lu, Pang and Pope conformal gravity theory in six dimensions. The reduction of conformal gravity int…
Weyl-invariant scalar-tensor gravities from purely metric theories
Giorgos Anastasiou, Ignacio J. Araya, Avik Chakraborty
We describe a method to generate scalar-tensor theories with Weyl symmetry, starting from arbitrary purely metric higher derivative gravity theories. The method consists in the def…
Conformal renormalization of scalar-tensor theories
Giorgos Anastasiou, Ignacio J. Araya, Mairym Busnego-Barrientos +2
We study a conformally coupled scalar-tensor theory with a quartic potential possessing local conformal symmetry up to a boundary term. We show that requiring the restoration of th…
Energy functionals from Conformal Gravity
Giorgos Anastasiou, Ignacio J. Araya, Rodrigo Olea
We provide a new derivation of the Hawking mass and Willmore energy functionals for asymptotically AdS spacetimes, by embedding Einstein-AdS gravity in Conformal Gravity. By constr…
CFT correlators from shape deformations in Cubic Curvature Gravity
Giorgos Anastasiou, Ignacio J. Araya, Andrés Argandoña +1
We find a covariant expression for the universal part of the holographic entanglement entropy which is valid for CFTs dual to generic higher curvature gravities in up to five bulk…
Universal renormalization procedure for higher curvature gravities in D5
Ignacio J. Araya, Jose D. Edelstein, Alberto Rivadulla Sanchez +2
We implement a universal method for renormalizing AdS gravity actions applicable to arbitrary higher curvature theories in up to five dimensions. The renormalization procedure cons…
