Περίληψη: The sphere partition function is one of the simplest Euclidean gravity computations. It is usually interpreted as count of states. However, the one loop gravity correction contains a dimension dependent phase factor, i D + 2 , which seems confusing for such an interpretation. We show that, after including an observer, this phase cancels for the quantity that should correspond to a count of states. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
