Null boundary terms for Lanczos-Lovelock gravity
read the original abstract
We derive boundary terms appropriate for the general Lanczos-Lovelock action on a null boundary, when Dirichlet boundary conditions are imposed. We believe that these boundary terms have been derived for the first time in the literature. In this derivation, we rely only on the structure of the boundary variation of the action for Lanczos-Lovelock gravity. We also provide the null boundary term for Gauss-Bonnet gravity separately.

Entropic route to Brown-York tensor: A unified framework for null and timelike hypersurfaces
An entropy functional yields the Brown-York tensor via conjugate momentum projection, unifying null and timelike hypersurfaces and reproducing equations in scalar-tensor gravity.

Stringy Effects on Holographic Complexity: The Complete Volume in Dynamical Spacetimes
Gauss-Bonnet corrections to the complete volume introduce a competition effect in static cases and prolong the critical time in two-sided shocks while the complexity growth rate stays governed by conserved momentum.

Stringy Effects on Holographic Complexity: The Complete Volume in Dynamical Spacetimes
Gauss-Bonnet corrections to the complete volume proposal introduce a competition effect in static black holes while preserving momentum-governed growth rates and logarithmic scrambling times in dynamical Vaidya geometries.
