Using trace anomalies, we determine the vacuum stress tensors of arbitrary even dimensional conformal field theories in Weyl flat backgrounds. We demonstrate a simple relation between the Casimir energy on the real line times a sphere and the type A anomaly coefficient. This relation generalizes earlier results in two and four dimensions. These field theory results for the Casimir are shown to be consistent with holographic predictions in two, four, and six dimensions.

  1. Six-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(2,0)$ Conformal Superspace

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    A new off-shell 6D N=(2,0) conformal superspace is constructed, and its unique Bach tensor superfield is derived up to overall scaling.

  2. Hubble Tension as an Effect of Horizon Entanglement Nonequilibrium

    astro-ph.CO 2026-01 reject novelty 5.0 of 10

    A phenomenological 'horizon entanglement deficit' with the form ρ ∝ H² is fit to low-z data under a forced H0=73 prior; the nonzero amplitude is a restatement of that prior.
