Gravitational Stability and Renormalization-Group Flow
نویسندگان
چکیده
First-order ‘Bogomol’nyi’ equations are found for dilaton domain walls of D-dimensional gravity with the general dilaton potential admitting a stable anti-de Sitter vacuum. Implications for renormalization group flow in the holographically dual field theory are discussed. e-mail address:[email protected] e-mail address: [email protected]

Towards c = 0 flows
We discuss some implications of the gravitational dressing of the renormalization group for conformal field theories perturbed by relevant operators. The renormalization group flows are defined with respect to the dilatation operator associated with the J (0) 0 mode of the SL(2, R) affine algebra. We discuss the possibility of passing under the c = 25 barrier along renormalization group flows i...
متن کاملImpact of topology in foliated quantum Einstein gravity
We use a functional renormalization group equation tailored to the Arnowitt-Deser-Misner formulation of gravity to study the scale dependence of Newton's coupling and the cosmological constant on a background spacetime with topology [Formula: see text]. The resulting beta functions possess a non-trivial renormalization group fixed point, which may provide the high-energy completion of the theor...
متن کاملRenormalization Group Approach to Einstein Equation in Cosmology
The renormalization group method has been adapted to the analysis of the long-time behavior of non-linear partial differential equation and has demonstrated its power in the study of critical phenomena of gravitational collapse. In the present work we apply the renormalization group to the Einstein equation in cosmology and carry out detailed analysis of renormalization group flow in the vicini...
متن کاملOn the renormalization group flow of f(R)-gravity
We use the functional renormalization group equation for quantum gravity to construct a nonperturbative flow equation for modified gravity theories of the form S = ∫ ddx √ gf(R). Based on this equation we show that certain gravitational interactions monomials can be consistently decoupled from the renormalization group (RG) flow and reproduce recent results on the asymptotic safety conjecture. ...
متن کاملConsistency Conditions for Holographic Duality
We show that if the beta functions of a field theory are given by the gradient of a certain potential on the space of couplings, a gravitational background in one more dimension can express the renormalization group (RG) flow of the theory. The field theory beta functions and the gradient flow constraint together reconstruct the second order spacetime equations of motion. The RG equation reduce...
