We consider the holographic dual of a general class of N=1* flows in which all three chiral multiplets have independent masses, and in which the corresponding Yang-Mills scalars can develop particular supersymmetry-preserving vevs. We also…
We investigate the renormalization group flow of a gravity--matter system in which a scalar field is minimally coupled to Einstein gravity and its kinetic term is given by a scale-dependent form factor $f_\Lambda(-\Box)$. Employing the…
Traditional approaches to the study of the dynamics of spacetime curvature in a very real sense hide the intricacies of the nonlinear regime. Whether it be huge formulae, or mountains of numerical data, standard methods of presentation make…
We consider maximal gauged supergravity in 4D with ISO(7) gauge group, which arises from a consistent truncation of massive IIA supergravity on a six-sphere. Within its G$_2$ invariant sector, the theory is known to possess a supersymmetric…
We perform the Hamiltonian constraint analysis for a wide class of gravity theories that are invariant under spatial diffeomorphism. With very general setup, we show that different from the general relativity, the primary and secondary…
We propose a nonlocal scalar-tensor model of gravity with pseudodifferential operators inspired by the effective action of p-adic string and string field theory on flat spacetime. An infinite number of derivatives act both on the metric and…
Euclidean field theories admit more general deformations than usually discussed in quantum field theories because of mixing between rotational symmetry and internal symmetry (a.k.a topological twist). Such deformations may be relevant, and…
We develop an augmented characteristic, first-order formulation of the field equations in f(R) gravity governing the global evolution of a (possibly) massive scalar field phi under spherical symmetry. This formulation is designed to isolate…
In a companion paper arXiv:2510.27676, we introduced a non-perturbative classical renormalisation group (RG) flow equation as a novel method for treating strongly interacting problems in general relativity, with a prominent application to…
We show that the RG flow equation for the cosmological constant (CC) receives contributions (in addition to those coming from the CC the Einstein-Hilbert term and $R^{2}$ and $R_{\mu\nu}^{2}$ terms) only from terms with just two powers of…
Flows on surfaces are one of the most fundamental and classical objects in dynamical systems, and are studied from various areas (e.g. integrable systems, differential equations, fluid mechanics). Though hyperbolic flows and recurrent flows…
Using $\delta N$ formalism, in the context of a generic multi-field inflation driven on a non-flat field space background, we revisit the analytic expressions of the various cosmological observables such as scalar/tensor power spectra,…
In previous works in this series we focussed on Hamiltonian renormalisation of free field theories in all spacetime dimensions or interacting theories in spacetime dimensions lower than four. In this paper we address the Hamiltonian…
We propose a scenario according to which the ultraviolet completion of General Relativity is realized through a stochastic gradient flow towards a topological BF theory. Specifically, we consider the stochastic gradient flow of a…
We construct RG flow solutions interpolating AdS and Schrodinger geometries in Abelian Higgs models obtained from consistent reductions of type IIB supergravity and M-theory. We find that z=2 Schrodinger geometries can be realized at the…
We propose a field-theoretic framework for ideal hydrodynamics of charged relativistic fluids formulated in terms of a complex scalar field defined on a spacelike hypersurface comoving with the fluid. In the normal phase, the dynamics of…
We develop a model for hadrons in the framework of the worldline formalism. While being based wholly in four-dimensional quantum field theory, it shares many features with holographic approaches: Already by the use of the worldline…
We develop a perturbative formulation of the Ricci flow in gravity. Following steps analogous to the gradient flow in QCD, we supplement the usual Feynman rules for perturbative gravity by flowed propagators and vertices as well as graviton…
We answer to 72 frequently asked questions about theories of multifractional spacetimes. Apart from reviewing and reorganizing what we already know about such theories, we discuss the physical meaning and consequences of the very recent…
We consider a certain ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric, $SO(3)\times SO(3)$ invariant, subsector of the $\omega$-deformed family of $SO(8)$-gauged ${\cal N}=8$ four-dimensional supergravities. The theory contains two scalar fields and two…
