We describe cosmological solutions of the holographic dilaton with the aim of exploring alternatives to the commonly studied thermal Randall-Sundrum phase transition. It is well known that the thermal transition is typically strongly first order, with the requirement of a perturbative 5D gravity theory obstructing completion of the transition. This thermal transition corresponds to nucleation of an infrared brane through the surface of an AdS-Schwarzschild horizon. The approach we study instead invokes an early epoch in which the cosmology is fully 5-dimensional, with highly relativistic brane motion, and with Rindler horizons obscuring the infrared brane at early times. Our approach corresponds, via AdS/CFT, to a non-equilibrium approach to the conformal phase transition. We comment on a class of initial conditions that generically leads to completion of the phase transition without sacrificing perturbativity of the 5D theory.

  3. Confinement in Holographic Theories at Finite Theta

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Holographic 5D model shows confinement critical temperature falls quadratically with vacuum angle, matches lattice QCD, and allows time-dependent theta to trigger supercooling and altered gravitational-wave spectra.

  4. Inflation with a Growing Fifth Dimension

    hep-th 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Inflation from a UV-brane inflaton in a warped 5D bulk with an IR brane predicts a blue-tilted low-k scalar spectrum and oscillating tensor features because the early adiabatic modes come from the radion.
