We obtain an Einstein metric of constant negative curvature given an arbitrary boundary metric in three dimensions, and a conformally flat one given an arbitrary conformally flat boundary metric in other dimensions. In order to compute the on-shell value of the gravitational action for these solutions, we propose to integrate the radial coordinate from the boundary till a critical value where the bulk volume element vanishes. The result, which is a functional of the boundary metric, provides a sector of the quantum effective action common to all conformal field theories that have a gravitational description. We verify that the so-defined boundary effective action is conformally invariant in odd (boundary) dimensions and has the correct conformal anomaly in even (boundary) dimensions. In three dimensions and for arbitrary static boundary metric the bulk metric takes a rather simple form. We explicitly carry out the computation of the corresponding effective action and find that it equals the non-local Polyakov action.

Butterflies in $\textrm{T}\overline{\textrm{T}}$ deformed anomalous CFT$_2$
In TTbar-deformed anomalous CFT2 the chaos bound stays saturated while butterfly velocity depends nontrivially on deformation strength and anomaly, with a Hagedorn regime where the chaotic response turns complex.

Butterfly effect and $\textrm{T}\overline{\textrm{T}}$-deformation
For T\bar{T}-deformed BTZ black holes, the butterfly velocity is v_B = sqrt(1 - 8π² μ/β²), exceeding the Mezei-Stanford bound for μ<0 while the Lyapunov exponent stays at the maximal value 2π/β.

Holographic Correlators of Boundary/Crosscap CFTs in Two Dimensions
Explicit bulk derivations yield two- and three-point stress tensor correlators in AdS3/BCFT2 and scalar and stress tensor correlators for XCFT2 on RP2, with tension independence and finite-cutoff deformations.

Hyperbolic Mass in 2+1 Dimensions
Mass in asymptotically locally hyperbolic 2+1 gravity is a minimised functional, not a single conserved number, and gluing theorems can construct initial data realising every mass aspect function.
