String theory embeddings of nonrelativistic field theories and their holographic Hořava gravity duals.

چکیده
We argue that generic nonrelativistic quantum field theories with a holographic description are dual to Hořava gravity. We construct explicit examples of this duality embedded in string theory by starting with relativistic dual pairs and taking a nonrelativistic scaling limit.

Families of IIB duals for nonrelativistic CFTs
We show that the recent string theory embedding of a spacetime with nonrelativistic Schrödinger symmetry can be generalised to a twenty one dimensional family of solutions with that symmetry. Our solutions include IIB backgrounds with no three form flux turned on, and arise as near horizon limits of branewave spacetimes. We show that there is a hypersurface in the space of these theories where ...
متن کاملAnisotropic Conformal Infinity
We generalize Penrose’s notion of conformal infinity of spacetime, to situations with anisotropic scaling. This is relevant not only for Lifshitz-type anisotropic gravity models, but also in standard general relativity and string theory, for spacetimes exhibiting a natural asymptotic anisotropy. Examples include the Lifshitz and Schrödinger spaces (proposed as AdS/CFT duals of nonrelativistic f...
متن کاملGravity duals for nonrelativistic conformal field theories.
We attempt to generalize the anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory correspondence to nonrelativistic conformal field theories which are invariant under Galilean transformations. Such systems govern ultracold atoms at unitarity, nucleon scattering in some channels, and, more generally, a family of universality classes of quantum critical behavior. We construct a family of metrics which realize t...
متن کاملNon-relativistic holography
We consider holography for d-dimensional scale invariant but non-Lorentz invariant field theories, which do not admit the full Schrödinger symmetry group. We find new realizations of the corresponding (d+1)-dimensional gravity duals, engineered with a variety of matter Lagrangians, and their finite temperature generalizations. The thermodynamic properties of the finite temperature backgrounds a...
متن کاملNon - Critical String Duals of N = 1 Quiver Theories
We construct N =1 non-critical strings in four dimensions dual to strongly coupled N=1 quiver gauge theories in the Coulomb phase, generalizing the string duals of Argyres-Douglas superconformal fixed points in N=2 gauge theories. They are the first examples of superstring vacua with an exact worldsheet description dual to chiral N=1 theories. We identify the dual of the non-critical superstrin...
