Gravitational Stability and Renormalization-Group Flow

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-31 v2

Abstract

First-order `Bogomol'nyi' equations are found for dilaton domain walls of D-dimensional gravity with the general dilaton potential admitting a stable anti-de Sitter vacuum. Implications for renormalization group flow in the holographically dual field theory are discussed.
