Holography and Phenomenology
Nima Arkani-Hamed, Massimo Porrati, Lisa Randall
We examine various aspects of the conjectured duality between warped AdS geometries with boundary branes and strongly coupled (broken) conformal field theories coupled to dynam…
Notes on the Quantization of the Complex Linear Superfield
P. A. Grassi, G. Policastro, M. Porrati
The quantization of the complex linear superfield requires an infinite tower of ghosts. Using the Batalin-Vilkovisky technique, Grisaru, Van Proeyen, and Zanon have been able to de…
Holographic Duals of 4D Field Theories
M. Porrati, A. Starinets
We discuss various aspect of the holographic correspondence between 5-d gravity and 4-d field theory. First of all, we describe deformations of N=4 Super Yang-Mills (SYM) theories…
On Sub-Millimeter Forces From Extra Dimensions
Gia Dvali, Gregory Gabadadze, Massimo Porrati
We show that in theories with large extra dimensions forces mediated by a bulk dilaton and bulk gauge fields may be parametrically (exponentially) weaker than gravity due to the su…
4D Gravity on a Brane in 5D Minkowski Space
Gia Dvali, Gregory Gabadadze, Massimo Porrati
We suggest a mechanism by which four-dimensional Newtonian gravity emerges on a 3-brane in 5D Minkowski space with an infinite size extra dimension. The worldvolume theory gives ri…
Metastable Gravitons and Infinite Volume Extra Dimensions
G. Dvali, G. Gabadadze, M. Porrati
We address the issue of whether extra dimensions could have an infinite volume and yet reproduce the effects of observable four-dimensional gravity on a brane. There is no normaliz…
A Note on the Holographic Beta and C Functions
D. Anselmi, L. Girardello, M. Porrati +1
The holographic RG flow in AdS/CFT correspondence naturally defines a holographic scheme in which the central charge c and the beta function are related by a universal formula. We…
