Anisotropic scaling non-relativistic holography: a symmetry perspective

Abstract

We study the holographic dual of the two dimensional non-relativistic conformal field theory with anisotropic scaling from a symmetry perspective. We construct a new four dimensional metric with two dimensional global anisotropic scaling isometry. The four dimensional spacetime is homogeneous and is a solution of Einstein gravity with quadratic-curvature extension. We consider this spacetime dual to the vacuum of the conformal field theory. By introducing proper solution phase space, we find that the asymptotic symmetry of the gravity theory is the two dimensional local anisotropic conformal symmetry, which recovers precisely the results from the dual non-relativistic conformal field theory side.
