The Root-$T \overline{T}$ flow was recently introduced as a universal and classically marginal deformation of any two-dimensional translation-invariant field theory. The flow commutes with the (irrelevant) $T \overline{T}$ flow and it can…

In de Sitter (dS) holography, both the dS/CFT correspondence and the dS static patch holography have been extensively studied. In these two holographic frameworks, the dual field theories are defined on spacelike and timelike boundaries,…

Classically integrable $\sigma$-models are known to be solutions of the 1-loop RG equations, or "Ricci flow", with only a few couplings running. In some of the simplest examples of integrable deformations we find that in order to preserve…
