Energy functionals from Conformal Gravity
read the original abstract
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 construction, the evaluation of the four-dimensional Conformal Gravity action in a manifold with a conical defect produces a codimension-2 conformal invariant functional $L_{\Sigma}$. The energy functionals are then particular cases of $L_{\Sigma}$ for Einstein-AdS and pure AdS ambient spaces, respectively. The bulk action is finite for AdS asymptotics and both Hawking mass and Willmore energy are finite as well. The result suggests a generic relation between conformal invariance and renormalization, where the codimension-2 properties are inherited from the bulk gravity action.

Conformal Renormalisation of 8D Einstein Gravity
Holographic renormalisation of 8D Einstein-AdS gravity is recovered as the Einstein sector of the unique conformal gravity admitting constant-negative-curvature Einstein solutions, with matching counterterms.

Universality of pseudoentropy for deformed spheres in dS/CFT
The quadratic shape-deformation correction to pseudoentropy in dS/CFT is controlled by the analytically continued stress-tensor coefficient C_T, making the sphere a local extremum across Einstein and quadratic-curvatu...

Renormalized pseudoentropy in dS/CFT
Renormalized holographic pseudoentropy in dS/CFT is constructed from conformal-gravity actions in four and six dimensions, yielding finite sphere values and Mezei-like shape dependence for small deformations.
