Yang-Mills interaction from boundary vector model

Pavan Dharanipragada, B. Sathiapalan

We construct a non-abelian spin 1 gauge theory with a cubic interaction in AdS from the Exact Renormalisation Group (ERG) flow of a CFT in 3 dimensions. The latter is the ${USp…

Mapping from Exact RG to Holographic RG in Flat Space

B. Sathiapalan

In earlier papers a method was given for constructing from first principles a holographic bulk dual action in Euclidean AdS space for a Euclidean CFT on the boundary. The starting…

Holographic Beta functions for the Generalized Sine Gordon Theory

Prafulla Oak, B. Sathiapalan

The Sine Gordon theory is generalized to include several cosine terms. This is similar to the world sheet description of a string propagating in a tachyon background. This model is…

A Holographic form for Wilson's RG

B. Sathiapalan, Hidenori Sonoda

An attempt is made to make precise the connection between Wilson's RG and "Holographic RG" by writing Wilson's RG in a holographic form. A functional formulation is given for the e…

Exact Renormalization Group and Sine Gordon Theory

Prafulla Oak, B. Sathiapalan

The exact renormalization group is used to study the RG flow of quantities in field theories. The basic idea is to write an evolution operator for the flow and evaluate it in pertu…
