Research paper thumbnail of Geometric holography, the renormalization group and the c-theorem

Nuclear Physics B, 1999

In this paper the whole geometrical set-up giving a conformally invariant holographic projection ... more In this paper the whole geometrical set-up giving a conformally invariant holographic projection of a diffeomorphism invariant bulk theory is clarified. By studying the renormalization group flow along null geodesic congruences a holographic version of Zamolodchikov's c-theorem is proven.

Research paper thumbnail of Non-critical confining strings and the renormalization group

Nuclear Physics B, 1999

String vacua for non critical strings satisfying the requirements of Zig-Zag invariance are const... more String vacua for non critical strings satisfying the requirements of Zig-Zag invariance are constructed. The Liouville mode is shown to play the rôle of scale in the Renormalization Group operation. Differences and similarities with the D-brane near horizon approach to non supersymmetric gauge theories are discussed as well.
