In this letter we analyze the Hamiltonian formulation of the Jackiw-Teitelboim model of 2D gravity and calculate the central charge associated with the asymptotic symmetries, taking care of boundary terms. For black hole solutions, we show that there is no √ 2 discrepancy between the thermodynamical entropy and the statistical one obtained via Cardy’s formula. PACS numbers: 04.20.-q, 04.70.-s, ...
