We systematically develop the procedure of holographic renormalization for RG flows dual to asymptotically AdS domain walls. All divergences of the on-shell bulk action can be cancelled by adding covariant local boundary counterterms…
We initiate a study of finite temperature transport in gapless and strongly coupled quantum theories with charge and dipole conservation using gauge-gravity duality. In a model with non-dynamical gravity, the bulk fields of our model…
We apply the framework of Cauchy Slice Holography to the quantization of gravity on closed slices with $\Lambda>0$ (with a focus on $2+1$ dimensions for concreteness). We obtain solutions to the Wheeler-DeWitt equation in a basis of…
We analyze the asymptotic pointwise behavior of families of solutions to the high-order critical equation $$P_\alpha u_\alpha=\Delta_g^k u_\alpha+\hbox{lot}=|u_\alpha|^{2^\star-2-\epsilon_\alpha} u_\alpha\hbox{ in }M$$ that behave like…
We calculate bubble-nucleation rates for (2+1)-dimensional scalar theories at high temperature. Our approach is based on the notion of a real coarse-grained potential. The region of applicability of our method is determined through internal…

Einstein-Hilbert (EH) action can be separated into a bulk and a surface term, with a specific ("holographic") relationship between the two, so that either can be used to extract information about the other. The surface term can also be…
