Moving the CFT into the bulk with TT¯ $$ T\overline{T} $$

Abstract Recent work by Zamolodchikov and others has uncovered a solvable irrelevant deformation of general 2D CFTs, defined by turning on the dimension 4 operator TT¯ $$ T\overline{T} $$,the product of the left- and right-moving stress tensor. We propose that in the holographic dual, this deformati...
