abstract

We generalize the $T\overline{T}$ deformation of CFT$_2$ to higher-dimensional large-$N$ CFTs, and show that in holographic theories, the resulting effective field theory matches semiclassical gravity in AdS with a finite radial cutoff. We also derive the deformation dual to arbitrary bulk matter theories. Generally, the deformations involve background fields as well as CFT operators. By keeping track of these background fields along the flow, we demonstrate how to match correlation functions on the two sides in some simple examples, as well as other observables.

q-Askey deformations of DSSYK produce transfer matrices from basic orthogonal polynomials whose chord numbers map to ER bridge lengths and signal geometric transitions with discrete spectra in sine dilaton gravity.

Poly-vector deformations of Type II and 11D backgrounds induce TTbar-like flows on the world-volume theories of strings and branes for both abelian and non-abelian deformations.
