On boundary terms and conformal transformations in curved space-times
We intend to clarify the interplay between boundary terms and conformal transformations in scalar-tensor theories of gravity. We first consider the action for pure gravity in five dimensions and show that, on compactifing a la Kaluza-Klein to four dimensions, one obtains the correct boundary terms in the Jordan (or String) Frame form of the Brans-Dicke action. Further, we analyze how the bounda...
متن کاملThe holographic Weyl anomaly
We calculate the Weyl anomaly for conformal field theories that can be described via the adS/CFT correspondence. This entails regularizing the gravitational part of the corresponding supergravity action in a manner consistent with general covariance. Up to a constant, the anomaly only depends on the dimension d of the manifold on which the conformal field theory is defined. We present concrete ...
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 کاملinvestigating the translation expectancy norms of iranian college student readership in terms of english fiction in persian
مفهوم هنجار برای اولین بار توسط دانشمندی به نام گیدون توری در اواخر دهه 70 مطرح شد. هنجارها توسط محققان مختلفی طبقه بندی شده اند؛ نوع هنجاری که در این تحقیق مورد بحث است "هنجار انتظارات" است. مطالعات ترجمه یک رشته ی نوپا و مستقل است که هنوز به رشد کامل خود نرسیده و بسیاری از شاخه های آن نیاز به پژوهش دارند. یکی ازاین حوزه ها که نیاز به پژوهش دارند، هنجارهای ترجمه هستند به ویژه هنجارهای انتظارات...
Holographic Description of Gravitational Anomalies
The holographic duality can be extended to include quantum theories with broken coordinate invariance leading to the appearance of the gravitational anomalies. On the gravity side one adds the gravitational Chern-Simons term to the bulk action which gauge invariance is only up to the boundary terms. We analyze in detail how the gravitational anomalies originate from the modified Einstein equati...
