Holography of asymmetrically warped space-times
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the holographic dual of asymmetrically warped space-times, which are asymptotically AdS. The self-tuning of the cosmological constant is reinterpreted as a cancellation of the visible sector stress-energy tensor by the contribution of a hidden CFT, charged under a spontaneously broken global symmetry. The apparent violation of 4D causality due to bulk geodesics is justified by considering that the CFT feels the background metric as smeared out over a length of the order of the AdS radius.

Closed timelike curves in asymmetrically warped brane universes
We discuss causality properties of asymmetrically warped space-times and argue that such scenarios may allow for timelike curves which can be closed via paths in the extra-dimensional bulk. We find a metric where the null, weak and dominant energy conditions are violated in the bulk, but satisfied on the brane. Such scenarios are interesting, since in principle gravitons or gauge-singlet (“ster...
متن کاملAsymmetrically Warped Spacetimes
We investigate spacetimes in which the speed of light along flat 4D sections varies over the extra dimensions due to different warp factors for the space and the time coordinates (“asymmetrically warped” spacetimes). The main property of such spaces is that while the induced metric is flat, implying Lorentz invariant particle physics on a brane, bulk gravitational effects will cause apparent vi...
متن کاملLes Houches Lectures on Warped Models and Holography
The theoretical tools required to construct models in warped extra dimensions are presented. This includes how to localise zero modes in the warped bulk and how to obtain the holographic interpretation using the AdS/CFT correspondence. Several models formulated in warped space are then discussed including nonsupersymmetric and supersymmetric theories as well as their dual interpretation. Finall...

Abstract: In the present paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for contact CR-warped product to be contact CR-product in Kenmotsu space forms.
متن کاملHopfing and Puffing Warped Anti-de Sitter Space
Three dimensional spacelike warped anti-de Sitter space is studied in the context of Einstein theories of gravity and string theory, where there is no gravitational Chern-Simons term in the action. We propose that it is holographically dual to a two-dimensional conformal field theory with equal left and right moving central charges. Various checks of the central charges are offered, based on th...
