Anomalies at the End of the Universe?
Abstract
The spatial distribution of anomalies in extra dimensional theories on a slice of AdS leads to a puzzle where anomalies may not match across different geometries that are dual to various states of the same CFT. We argue that consistency of the anomaly across such geometries necessitates the addition of topological terms or other bulk fermions to the theory that flow any IR localized consistent anomaly into the ``UV" region of these geometries if one wishes to have such a dual interpretation.
