Deformations of Holographic Duals to Non-Relativistic CFTs

چکیده
We construct the non-relativistic counterparts of some well-known supergravity solutions dual to relevant and marginal deformations of N = 4 super Yang-Mills. The main tool we use is the null Melvin twist and we apply it to the N = 1 and N = 2∗ Pilch-Warner RG flow solutions as well as the Lunin-Maldacena solution dual to β-deformations of N = 4 super Yang-Mills. We also obtain a family of supergravity solutions with Schrödinger symmetry interpolating between the non-relativistic version of the N = 1 Pilch-Warner and KlebanovWitten fixed points. A generic feature of these non-relativistic backgrounds is the presence of non-vanishing internal fluxes. We also find the most general, three-parameter, null Melvin twist of the AdS5 × S5 black hole. We briefly comment on the field theories dual to these supergravity solutions.

Gravity duals for non-relativistic CFTs
We attempt to generalize the AdS/CFT correspondence to non-relativistic 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 these symmetries as isometries....
متن کاملOn the Phase Transition of Conformal Field Theories with Holographic Duals
We study the thermodynamic relations of conformal field theories (CFTs), which are holographically dual to anti-de Sitter–Schwarzschild bulk space-times. A Cardy– Verlinde formula is derived thermodynamically for CFTs living on S × R with S having an arbitrary radius. The Hawking–Page phase transition of the CFT is described using Landau’s theory of phase transitions, and an alternative derivat...
متن کاملPhase transitions in symmetric orbifold CFTs and universality
Since many thermodynamic properties of black holes are universal, the thermodynamics of their holographic duals should be universal too. We show how this universality is exhibited in the example of symmetric orbifolds of general two dimensional CFTs. We discuss the free energies and phase diagrams of such theories and show that they are indeed universal in the large N limit. We also comment on ...
متن کاملHolographic View of Non - relativistic Physics by Koushik Balasubramanian
Motivated by the AdS/CFT correspondence for relativistic CFTs, it seems natural to generalize it to non-relativistic CFTs. Such a dual description could provide insight into strong coupling phenomena observed in condensed matter systems. Scale invariance can be realized in non-relativistic theories in many ways. One freedom is the relative scale dimension of time and space, called the dynamical...
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...
