Higher Derivative Corrections to Eleven Dimensional Supergravity via Local Supersymmetry

In this paper we derive higher derivative corrections to the eleven dimensional supergravity by applying the Noether method with respect to the N=1 local supersymmetry. An ansatz for the higher derivative effective action, which includes quartic terms of the Riemann tensor, is parametrized by 132 parameters. Then we show that by the requirement of the local supersymmetry, the higher derivative effective action is essentially described by two parameters. The bosonic parts of these two superinvariants completely match with the known results obtained by the perturbative calculations in the type IIA superstring theory. Since the calculations are long and systematic, we build the computer programming to check the cancellation of the variations under the local supersymmetry. This is an extended version of our previous paper hep-th/0508204.

R^4 Corrections to Eleven Dimensional Supergravity via Supersymmetry

By applying Noether method to N=1 local supersymmetry in eleven dimensions, we obtained two candidates of R^4 corrections to the supergravity. The bosonic parts of these two completely match with the results obtained by type IIA string perturbative calculations. We also obtained 13 parameters which relate only fermionic terms.

Holography in Einstein Gauss-Bonnet Gravity

We investigate a holographic relation between Einstein Gauss-Bonnet gravity in $n$ dimensions and its dual field theory in ($n-1$) dimensions. We briefly review the AdS/CFT correspondence for the entropy in the $n$-dimensional Einstein gravity and consider its extension to the case of the $n$-dimensional Einstein Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We show that there is a holographic relation between entropies of an Einstein Gauss-Bonnet black hole in the bulk and the corresponding radiation on the brane in the high temperature limit. In particular, we find that the Hubble entropy evaluated when the brane crosses the horizon also coincides with the black hole entropy in the high temperature limit.

Conserved Charges in Einstein Gauss-Bonnet theory

Using Noether's identities, we define a superpotential with respect to a background for the Einstein Gauss-Bonnet theory of gravity. As an example, we show that its associated conserved charge yields the mass-energy of a D-dimensional Gauss-Bonnet black hole in an anti-de Sitter spacetime.

Logarithmic corrections to the FRW brane cosmology from 5d Schwarzschild-deSitter black hole

Thermodynamics of 5d SdS black hole is considered. Thermal fluctuations define the (sub-dominant) logarithmic corrections to black hole entropy and then to Cardy-Verlinde formula and to FRW brane cosmology. We demonstrate that logarithmic terms (which play the role of effective cosmological constant) change the behavior of 4d spherical brane in dS, SdS or Nariai bulk. In particularly, bounce Universe occurs or 4d dS brane expands to its maximum and then shrinks. The entropy bounds are also modified by next-to-leading terms. Out of braneworld context the logarithmic terms may suggest slight modification of standard FRW cosmology.

Casimir effect in de Sitter and Anti-de Sitter braneworlds

We discuss the bulk Casimir effect (effective potential) for a conformal or massive scalar when the bulk represents five-dimensional AdS or dS space with two or one four-dimensional dS brane, which may correspond to our universe. Using zeta-regularization, the interesting conclusion is reached, that for both bulks in the one-brane limit the effective potential corresponding to the massive or to the conformal scalar is zero. The radion potential in the presence of quantum corrections is found. It is demonstrated that both the dS and the AdS braneworlds may be stabilized by using the Casimir force only. A brief study indicates that bulk quantum effects are relevant for brane cosmology, because they do deform the de Sitter brane. They may also provide a natural mechanism yielding a decrease of the four-dimensional cosmological constant on the physical brane of the two-brane configuration.

Holographic entropy on the brane from dS/CFT correspondence

The relationship between the entropy of de Sitter (dS) Schwarzschild space and that of the CFT which lives on the brane by using Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) equations and Cardy-Verlinde formula is discussed. We show that when the time-like brane crosses the black hole horizon of dS Schwarzschild black hole, the entropy of the CFT exactly agrees with the black hole entropy of 5-dimensional dS background.

The AdS/CFT Correspondence and Logarithmic Corrections to Braneworld Cosmology and the Cardy-Verlinde Formula

The AdS/CFT correspondence is employed to derive logarithmic corrections to the Cardy-Verlinde formula when thermal fluctuations in the Anti-de Sitter black hole are accounted for. The qualitative effect of these corrections on the braneworld cosmology is investigated. The role of such terms in enabling a contracting universe to undergo a bounce is demonstrated. Their influence on the stability of black holes in AdS space and the Hawking-Page-Witten phase transitions is also discussed.

Friedmann-Robertson-Walker brane cosmological equations from the five-dimensional bulk (A)dS black hole

In the first part of this work we review the equations of motion for the brane presented in Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) form, when bulk is five-dimensional (A)dS Black Hole. The spacelike (timelike) FRW brane equations are considered from the point of view of their representation in the form similar to two-dimensional CFT entropy, so-called Cardy-Verlinde (CV) formula. The following five-dimensional gravities are reviewed: Einstein, Einstein-Maxwell and Einstein with brane quantum corrections. The second part of the work is devoted to study FRW brane equations and their representation in CV form, brane induced matter and brane cosmology in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (GB) gravity. In particular, we focus on the inflationary brane cosmology. The energy conditions for brane matter are also analyzed. We show that for some values of GB coupling constant (bulk is AdS BH) the brane matter is not CFT. Its energy density and pressure are not always positive.

Graviton correlator and metric perturbations in de Sitter brane-world

We consider de Sitter brane-world motivated by dS/CFT correspondence where both bulk and brane are de Sitter spaces. The brane tension is fixed by holographic RG. The 4d effective action for metric perturbations and 4d graviton correlator are explicitly found. The induced values of cosmological and Newton constants are calculated. The short distance behaviour of the graviton correlator (when no brane matter presents) turns out to be significally stronger than in the case of General Relativity. It is shown that quantum brane CFT gives the dominant contribution to graviton correlator on small scales like in Brane New World scenario.

Holographic Entropy on the Brane in de Sitter Schwarzschild Space

The relationship between the entropy of de Sitter (dS) Schwarzschild space and that of the CFT, which lives on the brane, is discussed by using Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) equations and Cardy-Verlinde formula. The cosmological constant appears on the brane with time-like metric in dS Schwarzschild background. On the other hand, in case of the brane with space-like metric in dS Schwarzschild background, the cosmological constant of the brane does not appear because we can choose brane tension to cancel it. We show that when the brane crosses the horizon of dS Schwarzschild black hole, both for time-like and space-like cases, the entropy of the CFT exactly agrees with the black hole entropy of 5-dimensional AdS Schwarzschild background as it happens in the AdS/CFT correspondence.

Cosmological and black hole brane-world Universes in higher derivative gravity

General model of multidimensional $R^2$-gravity including Riemann tensor square term (non-zero $c$ case) is considered. The number of brane-worlds in such model is constructed (mainly in five dimensions) and their properties are discussed. Thermodynamics of S-AdS BH (with boundary) is presented when perturbation on $c$ is used. The entropy, free energy and energy are calculated. For non-zero $c$ the entropy (energy) is not proportional to the area (mass). The equation of motion of brane in BH background is presented as FRW equation. Using dual CFT description it is shown that dual field theory is not conformal one when $c$ is not zero. In this case the holographic entropy does not coincide with BH entropy (they coincide for Einstein gravity or $c=0$ HD gravity where AdS/CFT description is well applied). Asymmetrically warped background (analog of charged AdS BH) where Lorentz invariance violation occurs is found. The cosmological 4d dS brane connecting two dS bulk spaces is formulated in terms of parameters of $R^2$-gravity. Within proposed dS/CFT correspondence the holographic conformal anomaly from five-dimensional higher derivative gravity in de Sitter background is evaluated.

AdS Black Hole in R^2-Gravity

We discuss some properties of higher derivative (HD) bulk gravity without Riemann tensor square term. Such a kind of gravity admits Schwarzschild Anti de Sitter (SAdS) black hole as exact solution. It is shown that induced brane geometry on such background is Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) radiation dominated Universe. We show that HD terms contributions appear in the Hawking temperature, entropy and Hubble parameter via the redefinition of 5-dimensional gravitational constant and AdS scale parameter. These HD terms do not destroy the AdS-dual description of radiation represented by strongly-coupled CFT. So-called Cardy-Verlinde formula which expresses cosmological entropy as square root from other parameters and entropies is also derived in R^2-gravity. This talk is based on works with Shin'ichi Nojiri and Sergei D. Odintsov.

Holographic entropy and brane FRW-dynamics from AdS black hole in d5 higher derivative gravity

Higher derivative bulk gravity (without Riemann tensor square term) admits AdS-Schwarzschild black hole as exact solution. It is shown that induced brane geometry on such background is open, flat or closed FRW radiation dominated Universe. Higher derivative terms contributions appear in the Hawking temperature, entropy and Hubble parameter via the redefinition of 5-dimensional gravitational constant and AdS scale parameter. These higher derivative terms do not destroy the AdS-dual description of radiation represented by strongly-coupled CFT. Cardy-Verlinde formula which expresses cosmological entropy as square root from other parameters and entropies is derived in $R^2$ gravity. The corresponding cosmological entropy bounds are briefly discussed.

A Dynamical Brane in the Gravitational Dual of ${\cal N}=2$ $Sp(N)$ Superconformal Field Theory

The particular model of d5 higher derivative gravity which is dual to ${\cal N}=2$ $Sp(N)$ SCFT is considered. A (perturbative) AdS black hole in such theory is constructed in the next-to-leading order of the AdS/CFT correspondence. The surface counterterms are fixed by the conditions required for a well-defined variational procedure and the finiteness of AdS space (when the brane goes to infinity). A dynamical brane is realized at the boundary of an AdS black hole with a radius that is larger than the horizon radius. The AdS/CFT correspondence dictates the parameters of the gravitational dual in such a way that the dynamical brane (the observable universe) always occurs outside the horizon.

Quantum stabilization of thermal brane-worlds in M-theory

Low-energy effective M-theory (11d supergravity or 11d SUSY theory) is considered in 11d flat or AdS background. After orbifold compactification of eleventh dimension one gets flat 10d brane at non-zero temperature. Quantum effective potential (free energy at low-temperature approximation) is calculated on such brane with account of only lowest mass from Kaluza-Klein modes. Such effective potential may stabilize the radius of 11th dimension (radion stabilization) as it is demonstrated explicitly.

Conformal Anomaly via AdS/CFT Duality

AdS/CFT duality is a conjectured dual correspondence between the large $N$ limit of Conformal Field Theory (CFT) in $d$-dimensions and the supergravity (SUGRA) in $d+1$-dimensional Anti de Sitter (AdS) space. By using this conjecture, we can study various properties of large $N$ CFT by simple calculations in SUGRA. Recently much attention has been paid to the Renormalization Group (RG) flow viewed from the SUGRA side. Such RG flow in CFT is known to be characterized by the c-function which connects CFTs with different central charges. Therefore, we are interested in deriving this c-function from SUGRA with the help of AdS/CFT correspondence. To derive the c-function, we calculate the conformal anomaly (CA) in SUGRA, since it is closely related to the central charge. In this thesis, we discuss the various aspects of CA from AdS/CFT duality, especially for the cases of SUGRA in 3 and 5-dimensions which correspond to 2 and 4-dimensional CFTs, respectively. It is known that the bosonic part of SUGRA with scalar (dilaton) and arbitrary scalar potential describes the special RG flows in dual quantum field theory. So we calculate dilaton-dependent CA from dilatonic gravity with arbitrary potential. After that, we propose candidates of c-functions from such dilatonic gravity and investigate the properties of them.
