Abstract

In the AdS/CFT correspondence motion in the radial direction of the AdS space is identified with renormalization group flow in the field theory. For the N=4 Yang-Mills theory this motion is trivial. More interesting examples of renormalization group flow occur when the N=4 theory is deformed. Aspects of the flows are discussed for the N=4 theory on its moduli space, and deformed to N=2 in the infra-red within the context of 5d SUGRA. 10d lifts and brane probing are crucial tools for linking the spacetime backgrounds to the dual field theory.
