Abstract
Domain wall solutions have attracted much attention due to their relevance for brane world scenarios and the holographic RG flow. In this talk I discuss the following aspects for these applications: (i) derivation of the first order flow equations as Bogomol'nyi bound; (ii) different types of critical points of the superpotential; (iii) the superpotential needed to localize gravity; (iv) the constraints imposed by supersymmetry including an example for an =1 flow and finally (v) sources and exponential trapping of gravity.
