Holographic RG flows on curved manifolds and the F-theorem

Abstract We study F-functions in the context of field theories on S 3 using gauge-gravity duality, with the radius of S 3 playing the role of RG scale. We show that the on-shell action, evaluated over a set of holographic RG flow solutions, can be used to define good F-functions, which decrease mono...
