Description

Abstract: We present evidence that the renormalization of Einstein-AdS gravity can be derived from conformal structures in the bulk.
In point of fact, by applying a holographic mechanism which reduces Conformal Gravity to its Einstein sector in 4 and 6 dimensions, the Einstein-AdS action is naturally endowed with the correct counterterms.
