Closure of Lie brackets associated to Brown-Henneaux boundary conditions
When we impose Brown-Henneaux boundary conditions to the metric field on AdS$_3$,
\begin{align}

BTZ partition function
I am unable to obtain the internal energy of the BTZ black hole. Recall its metric, which is given by
\begin{align}
ds^2=-N^2(r)dt^2+\frac{dr^2}{N^2(r)}+r^2\left(d\phi+N^\phi(r)dt\right)^2\,,

Confusion on metric determinant derivative
Maybe it is a stupid confusion. I need to compute the derivative of the metric determinant with respect to the metric itself, i.e., $\partial g/\partial g_{\mu\nu}$, but I have an indices confusion in …
