Abstract

We report a holographic study of a two-dimensional dilaton gravity theory with the Dirichlet boundary condition for the cases of nonvanishing and vanishing cosmological constants. Our result shows that the boundary theory of the two-dimensional dilaton gravity theory with the Dirichlet boundary condition for the case of nonvanishing cosmological constants is the Schwarzian term coupled to a dilaton field, while for the case of vanishing cosmological constant, a theory does not have a kinetic term. We also include the higher derivative term R-2, where R is the scalar curvature that is coupled to a dilaton field. We find that the form of the boundary theory is not modified perturbatively. Finally, we show that a lattice holographic picture is realized up to the second-order perturbation of boundary cutoff epsilon(2) under a constant boundary dilaton field and the nonvanishing cosmological constant by identifying the lattice spacing a of a lattice Schwarzian theory with the boundary cutoff epsilon of the two-dimensional dilaton gravity theory.
