Gravity Dual for Hofman-Strominger Theorem

High Energy Physics - Theory 2013-05-30 v1

Abstract

We provide a gravity counterpart of the theorem by Hofman and Strominger that in (1+1) dimension, chiral scale invariance indicates chiral conformal invariance. We show that the strict null energy condition gives a sufficient condition to guarantee the symmetry enhancement. We also investigate a possibility to construct holographic c-function that decreases along the holographic renormalization group flow.
