I have been reading "Lectures on black holes and the AdS3/CFT2 correspondence" by Per Kraus.
We consider a theory of gravity with Einstein-Hilbert action 116πG∫(R−2ℓ2)√gd3x+boundary terms
One solution is AdS3. I am struggling with deriving the AdS3 stress tensor Tij=18πGℓ(g(2)ij−Tr(g(2))g(0)ij) where the metric in AdS-space is ds2=dη2+gijdxidxj in Gaussian normal coordinates. There's a radial coordinate introduced earlier as ds2=(1+r2ℓ2)dt+dr21+r2/ℓ2+r2dϕ2 of which I don't know how to handle it or how to relate it to the "Fefferman-Graham expansion" gij=e2η/ℓg(0)ij+g(2)ij+… where I am also not sure what role exactly the "conformal boundary metric" g(0)ij plays and how to handle these metrics in the computation of (2.16).
I think this confusion also spills to the second section, the Virasoro generators: Why does the stress tensor in terms of w,ˉw defined by g(0)ijdxidxj=dwdˉw Tww=18πGℓg(2)ww not contain the conformal boundary metric g(0)ij?
