In the BF formulation our boundary conditions relate boundary connection with boundary scalar, yielding as boundary action the particle action on a group manifold or some Hamiltonian reduction thereof. After recovering in our formulation the Schwarzian for JT, we show that AdS-Carroll gravity yields a twisted warped boundary action. We comment on numerous applications and generalizations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-11-27T17:50:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "jt gravity", "boundary conditions relate boundary connection", "ads-carroll gravity yields", "hamiltonian reduction thereof", "three-dimensional light cone" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 41, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
