dc.descriptionGravity in d dimensions is formulated as the gauge theory of local SO(2,d-1) gauge group. The Chern-Pontryagin index ${\cal P}_{2n}$ plays a crucial role in both gravity and gauge theories. ${\cal P}_{2n}(gravity)$ gives the gravitational Lagrangian in 2n dimensions, having the vacuum solution $AdS_{2n}$. The same but global symmetry is shared with the gauge theories and 0,1-cochains of the Chern-Simon index ${\cal C}_{2n}(gauge)$ take part of $CFT_{2n-1}$ and $CFT_{2n-2}$, respectively. Gravity in odd dimensions is quite analogously formulated to that in even dimensions. This gives new insights on AdS/CFT correspondence.
