Holographic complexity for defects distinguishes action from volume

Abstract We explore the two holographic complexity proposals for the case of a 2d boundary CFT with a conformal defect. We focus on a Randall-Sundrum type model of a thin AdS2 brane embedded in AdS3. We find that, using the “complexity=volume” proposal, the presence of the defect generates a logarit...
