Conformal anomaly of submanifold observables in AdS / CFT correspondence
Jan, 1999Citations per year
Abstract:
We analyze the conformal invariance of submanifold observables associated with -branes in the AdS/CFT correspondence. For odd , the resulting observables are conformally invariant, and for even , they transform with a conformal anomaly that is given by a local expression which we analyze in detail for Note:
