In this paper, we investigate the equivalence between a boundary conformal field theory (BCFT) and a gravitational system by studying its duality relation in a two-dimensional setup. By examining the computation of entanglement entropy and energy flux conservation, we identify the dual two-dimensional gravity to the boundary dynamics of a BCFT. Furthermore, we demonstrate that one point functions can be correctly reproduced in the AdS/BCFT by considering a gravity solution with scalar fields turned on.
By combining the AdS/BCFT correspondence and the brane world holography, we expect an equivalence relation between a boundary conformal field theory (BCFT) and a gravitational system coupled to a CFT. However, it still remains unclear how the boundary condition of the BCFT is translated in the gravitational system. We examine this duality relation in a two-dimensional setup by looking at the computation of entanglement entropy and energy flux conservation. We also identify the two-dimensional gravity which is dual to the boundary dynamics of a BCFT. Moreover, we show that by considering a gravity solution with scalar fields turned on, we can reproduce one point functions correctly in the AdS/BCFT.
