The total derivatives in the gravitational action are usually disregarded as non-producing any non-trivial dynamics.

In the context of the gravitational entropy, within Wald's approach, these terms are considered irrelevant as non-contributing to the entropy.
On the other hand, the total derivatives are usually present in the trace anomaly in dimensions higher than 2.
As the trace anomaly is related to the logarithmic term in the entanglement entropy it is natural to ask whether the total derivatives make any essential contribution to the entropy or they can be totally ignored.
