abstract

For a conformal vector field $\xi$ on a Riemannian manifold, we say that a point is essential if there is no local metric in the conformal class for which $\xi$ is Killing. We show that the only essential points are isolated zeros of $\xi$. As an application, we show that every connected component of the zero set of $\xi$ is totally umbilical.

  1. Gravitation in flat spacetime from entanglement

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The first law of entanglement, applied to a putative holographic dual of Minkowski spacetime, is shown to imply the linearized gravitational equations of motion in 3d and 4d, modulo assumed boundary stress-tensor conditions.
