Holographic Lifshitz flows and the null energy condition

James T. Liu, Zhichen Zhao

We study asymptotically Lifshitz spacetimes and the constraints on flows between Lifshitz fixed points imposed by the null energy condition. In contrast with the relativistic holog…

A holographic c-theorem for higher derivative gravity

James T. Liu, Zhichen Zhao

We prove a holographic c-theorem for the a central charge in AdS/CFT where the bulk is described by a gravitational action built out of an arbitrary function f(R^{ab}_{cd}) of the…

Holographic c-theorems and higher derivative gravity

James T. Liu, Wafic Sabra, Zhichen Zhao

In AdS/CFT, the holographic Weyl anomaly computation relates the a-anomaly coefficient to the properties of the bulk action at the UV fixed point. This universal behavior suggests…

Supersymmetric massive truncations of IIb supergravity on Sasaki-Einstein manifolds

James T. Liu, Phillip Szepietowski, Zhichen Zhao

Motivated by recent interest in applications of the AdS/CFT correspondence to condensed matter applications involving fermions, we present the supersymmetric completion of the rece…

Consistent massive truncations of IIB supergravity on Sasaki-Einstein manifolds

James T. Liu, Phillip Szepietowski, Zhichen Zhao

Recent work on holographic superconductivity and gravitational duals of systems with non-relativistic conformal symmetry have made use of consistent truncations of D=10 and D=11 su…
