Conformal Anomaly from d5 Gauged Supergravity and c-function Away from Conformity

Using AdS/CFT correspondence we found the conformal anomaly from d3 and d5 gauged supergravity with single scalar (dilaton) and the arbitrary scalar potential on AdS-like scalar-gravitational background. Such dilatonic gravity action describes the special RG flows in extended gauged SG when scalars lie in one-dimensional submanifold of complete scalars space. This dilaton-dependent conformal anomaly corresponds to dual non-conformal (gauge) QFT (which is classically conformally invariant) with account of radiative corrections. Equations of motion in d5 gauged supergravity put some restrictions to the dilatonic potential on the conformal boundary. Using these restrictions we propose the candidate c-functions away from exact conformity. These c-functions are positively defined and monotonic, expressed in terms of dilatonic potential and have the fixed points in asymptotically AdS region.

Scheme-dependence of holographic conformal anomaly in d5 gauged supergravity with non-trivial bulk potential

Bosonic sector of d5 gauged supergravity with specific parametrization of full scalar coset is considered (multi-dilaton gravity). Using holographic RG in the form suggested by de Boer-Verlinde-Verlinde the holographic d4 conformal anomaly (in the sector of curvature invariants) is found when bulk potential is not constant. Its comparison with the earlier calculation done in the scheme where expansion of metric and dilaton over radial coordinate of AdS space is used demonstrates scheme dependence of holographic conformal anomaly. In AdS/CFT correspondence where dilatons play role of coupling constants it coincides with multi-loop conformal anomaly which depends on regularization scheme in interacting dual QFT. Hence, scheme dependence of holographic conformal anomaly is consistent with dual QFT expectations.

Holographic conformal anomaly with bulk scalars potential from d3 and d5 gauged supergravity

d3 and d5 maximally SUSY gauged supergravity is considered in the parametrization (flow) of full scalar coset where the kinetic term for scalars takes the standard field theory form and the bulk potential is an arbitrary one subject to consistent parametrization. From such SG duals we calculate d2 and d4 holographic conformal anomaly which depends on bulk scalars potential. AdS/CFT correspondence suggests that such SG side conformal anomaly should be identified with (non-perturbative) QFT conformal anomaly (taking account of radiative corrections) for the theory living on the boundary of AdS space. In the limit of constant bulk potential and single scalar, d4 result reproduces the known exact conformal anomaly corresponding to maximally SUSY super Yang-Mills theory coupled to ${\cal N}=4$ conformal supergravity.

Finite Action in d5 Gauged Supergravity and Dilatonic Conformal Anomaly for Dual Quantum Field Theory

Gauged supergravity (SG) with single scalar (dilaton) and arbitrary scalar potential is considered. Such dilatonic gravity describes special RG flows in extended SG where scalars lie in one-dimensional submanifold of total space. The surface counterterm and finite action for such gauged SG in three-, four- and five-dimensional asymptotically AdS space are derived. Using finite action and consistent gravitational stress tensor (local surface counterterm prescription) the regularized expressions for free energy, entropy and mass of d4 dilatonic AdS black hole are found. The same calculation is done within standard reference background subtraction. The dilaton-dependent conformal anomaly from d3 and d5 gauged SGs is calculated using AdS/CFT correspondence. Such anomaly should correspond to two- and four-dimensional dual quantum field theory which is classically (not exactly) conformally invariant, respectively. The candidate c-functions from d3 and d5 SGs are suggested. These c-functions which have fixed points in asymptoticaly AdS region are expressed in terms of dilatonic potential and they are positively defined and monotonic for number of potentials.

Dilatonic Brane-World Black Holes, Gravity Localization and Newton Constant

The family of brane-world solutions of d+1-dimensional dilatonic gravity is presented. It includes flat brane with small cosmological constant and (anti) de Sitter brane, dilatonic brane-world black holes (Schwarzschild-(anti-) de Sitter, Kerr, etc). Gravitational and dilatonic perturbations around such branes are found. It is shown that near dilatonic brane-world black hole the gravity may be localized in a standard form. The brane corrections to Newton law are estimated. The proposal to take into account the dilaton coupled brane matter quantum effects is made. The corresponding effective action changes the structure of 4d de Sitter wall. RG flow of four-dimensional Newton constant in IR and UV is briefly discussed.

Comments on Large N Matrix Model

The large N Matrix model is studied with attention to the quantum fluctuations around a given diagonal background. Feynman rules are explicitly derived and their relation to those in usual Yang-Mills theory is discussed. Background D-instanton configuration is naturally identified as a discretization of momentum space of a corresponding QFT. The structure of large N divergence is also studied on the analogy of UV divergences in QFT.
