An Exact Holographic RG Flow Between 2d Conformal Fixed Points
We describe a supersymmetric RG flow between conformal fixed points of a two-dimensional quantum field theory as an analytic domain wall solution of the three-dimensional SO(4)×SO(4) gauged supergravity. Its ultraviolet fixed point is an N=(4, 4) superconformal field theory related, through the double D1-D5 system, to theories modeling the statistical mechanics of black holes. The flow is drive...
متن کاملThe Holographic RG flow to conformal and non - conformal theory ∗
We review some aspects of the AdS supergravity description of RG flows. The case of a flow to an IR CFT can be rigorously studied within the framework of supergravity. Here we discuss various central charges of the conformal theory (included the usually neglected ones) and we compare them with QFT expectations. The case of flows to non-conformal theories is more problematic in that one usually ...
متن کاملInequalities for Trace Anomalies, Length of the Rg Flow, Distance between the Fixed Points and Irreversibility
I argue that in quantum field theory: i) the scheme-invariant area ∆a of the graph of the effective beta function between the fixed points defines the length of the RG flow; ii) the minimum of ∆a in the space of flows connecting the same UV and IR fixed points defines the (oriented) distance between the fixed points; iii) in even dimensions, the distance between the fixed points is equal to ∆a ...
متن کاملThe Price of an Exact, Gauge-Invariant RG-Flow Equation
We combine old ideas about exact renormalization-group-flow (RGF) equations with the Vilkovisky-De Witt (VDW) approach to reparametrization invariant effective actions and arrive at a new, exact, gauge-invariant RGF equation. The price to be paid for such a result is that both the action and the RGF equation depend explicitly upon the base point (in field space) needed for the VDW construction....
متن کاملHolographic non-Fermi-liquid fixed points.
Techniques arising from string theory can be used to study assemblies of strongly interacting fermions. Via this 'holographic duality', various strongly coupled many-body systems are solved using an auxiliary theory of gravity. Simple holographic realizations of finite density exhibit single-particle spectral functions with sharp Fermi surfaces, of a form distinct from those of the Landau theor...
