abstract

Holographic RG flows dual to QFTs on maximally symmetric curved manifolds (dS$_d$, AdS$_d$, and $S^d$) are considered in the framework of Einstein-dilaton gravity in $d+1$ dimensions. A general dilaton potential is used and the flows are driven by a scalar relevant operator. The general properties of such flows are analyzed and the UV and IR asymptotics computed. New RG flows can appear at finite curvature which do not have a zero curvature counterpart. The so-called 'bouncing flows', where the $\beta$-function has a branch cut at which it changes sign, are found to persist at finite curvature. Novel quantum first-order phase transitions are found, triggered by a variation in the $d$-dimensional curvature in theories allowing multiple ground states.

  1. On the spectra of holographic QFTs on constant curvature manifolds

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    For holographic QFTs on constant-curvature manifolds, the spectrum is always discrete for negative curvature and always has a continuous component starting at m^2 = (9/4)α^{-2} for positive curvature.

  2. Holographic confining theories on space-times with constant positive curvature

    hep-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For holographic confining theories on spheres, a curvature-driven quantum phase transition occurs between a low-curvature branch with flat-space-like IR and a high-curvature regular branch; the transition is first-ord...
