10 Quasilocal stress tensor Variation of the Dirichlet action respect to h ij δi Dir = d d x 1 2 h T ij [h] δh ij Brown-York tensor is conserved, i.e., i T ij = 0. Conserved current: J i = T ij ξ j = Q[ξ] = σ ui T ij ξ j Σ In AAdS spacetimes Q[ξ] is divergent, even in D = 3. We can always add local counterterms such that T ij [h] is regular I ren = I EH 8πG 1 d d x hk + d d x L ct (h, R, R) Rodrigo Olea (UNAB) () Quasilocal vs Holographic Stress Tensor in AdS 5 / 19

25 Conclusions and prospects The result of D = 4 is always true in D = 2n (requires the asymptotic behavior of the Weyl tensor) In D = 2n + 1 it is more subtle because counterterms ambiguity (finite counterterms that do not modify the Weyl anomaly). Reading off the holographic (quasilocal) stress tensor from the variation of the action in other gravity theories (EGB, Lovelock, etc.) where Holographic Renormalization would drive you insane.
