Renormalization group flows, the a-theorem and conformal bootstrap

Abstract Every renormalization group flow in d spacetime dimensions can be equivalently described as spectral deformations of a generalized free CFT in (d − 1) spacetime dimensions. This can be achieved by studying the effective action of the Nambu-Goldstone boson of broken conformal symmetry in ant...
