Abstract
The action growth proposal relates the holographic complexity to the value of the action on the Wheeler-de Witt patch. We introduce a new method of calculating the gravitational action using the "bulk" term, i.e. the part of the Einstein-Hilbert action quadratic in connection coefficients. We demonstrate how to address the issue of non-covariance of the bulk action and evaluate it using the tetrad formalism. Due to the boundary term-free nature of the bulk action, we can gain further insights into the spatial structure of the action on the Wheeler-de Witt patch. We then argue that our entire scheme can be naturally covariantized within the framework of teleparallel geometry.
