Abstract

We propose a symmetry of TT¯ deformed 2D CFT, which preserves the trace relation. The deformed conformal killing equation is obtained. Once we consider the background metric runs with the deformation parameter μ, the deformation contributes an additional term in conformal killing equation, which plays the role of renormalization group flow of metric. The conformal symmetry coincides with the fixed point. On the gravity side, this deformed conformal killing equation can be described by a new boundary condition of AdS3. In addition, based on the deformed conformal killing equation, we derive that the stress tensor of the deformed CFT equals to Brown-York's quasilocal stress tensor on a finite boundary with a counterterm. For a specific example, BTZ black hole, we get TT¯ deformed conformal killing vectors and the associated conserved charges are also studied.
