Renormalization group flows in gauge-gravity duality

High Energy Physics - Theory 2016-10-12 v1

Abstract

This is a copy of the 2009 Princeton University thesis which examined various aspects of gauge/gravity duality, including renormalization group flows, phase transitions of the holographic entanglement entropy, and instabilities associated with the breaking of supersymmetry. Chapter 5 contains new unpublished material on various instabilities of the weakly curved non-supersymmetric AdS4AdS_4 backgrounds of M-theory.
