Asymptotic symmetries of AdS2 Branes

Abstract

I analyze the asymptotic symmetries of a theory of gravity in a background consisting of two patches of AdS3 spacetime glued together along an AdS2 brane. These are generated by a single Virasoro algebra, as expected from the conjectured dual description in terms of a scale-invariant interface separating two conformal field theories.
