  • For 2+1 black hole solutions, dynamics at either the horizon or the boundary at infinity can lead to local degrees of freedom.

    “For such solutions, dynamics at either the horizon or the boundary at infinity can lead to local degrees of freedom [78, 247, 59, 96, 51, 24, 91]”

    From Quantum Gravity in 2 + 1 Dimensions: The Case of a Closed Universe (2005) · cites this paper as [247]

    Section 6, “Relation to previous derivations” (page unavailable), describes boundary degrees of freedom at the black-hole horizon and a conformal field theory at a boundary at infinity. But it explicitly says pure 2+1 gravity has no local degrees of freedom. The claim is supported for boundary degrees of freedom, not for unqualified local degrees of freedom. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
