N=2 Supersymmetric RG Flows and the IIB Dilaton
read the original abstract
We show that there is a non-trivial relationship between the dilaton of IIB supergravity, and the coset of scalar fields in five-dimensional, gauged N=8 supergravity. This has important consequences for the running of the gauge coupling in massive perturbations of the AdS/CFT correspondence. We conjecture an exact analytic expression for the ten-dimensional dilaton in terms of five-dimensional quantities, and we test this conjecture. Specifically, we construct a family of solutions to IIB supergravity that preserve half of the supersymmetries, and are lifts of supersymmetric flows in five-dimensional, gauged N=8 supergravity. Via the AdS/CFT correspondence these flows correspond to softly broken N=4, large N Yang-Mills theory on part of the Coulomb branch of N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills. Our solutions involve non-trivial backgrounds for all the tensor gauge fields as well as for the dilaton and axion.

Non-Abelian Symmetry Operators from Hanging Branes in $AdS_5 \times S^5$
In AdS5×S5, non-Abelian SO(6) symmetry operators are realized by hanging D5-brane–KK-monopole bound states, matching the Gauss-law operators from the low-energy supergravity action.

Supergravity flows, wormholes and their pseudo-Hermitian holographic duals
Supergravity truncations admit real-metric wormhole and flow solutions via imaginary scalar extensions, interpreted as dual to pseudo-Hermitian PT-symmetric theories and entangled brane-antibrane states.

Continuous symmetries and charge measurement of boundary operators in holography
Continuous symmetry operators in holography are U-shaped hanging brane bound states (D5-KK in Type IIB, M5-KK in M-theory) whose worldvolume couplings reproduce the Gauss-law symmetry operators and measure charges of ...

Light dilaton from top-down holographic confinement with magnetic fluxes
In a two-flux family of top-down holographic confining theories, the lightest scalar is an approximate dilaton with mass about one tenth of the lightest spin-2 confinement scale, over a wide, untuned region of paramet...
