Effect of curvature squared corrections in AdS on the viscosity of the dual gauge theory

Abstract: We use the real-time finite-temperature AdS/CFT correspondence to compute the effect of general R 2 corrections to the gravitational action in AdS space on the shear viscosity of the dual gauge theory. The R 2 terms in AdS 5 are determined by the central charges of the CFT. We present an example of a four-dimensional gauge theory in which the conjectured lower bound of 1/4π on the viscosity-to-entropy ratio is violated for finite N.

“…Only with the higher derivative corrections [71][72][73] or in a anisotropic gravity background [74][75][76][77] one can get deviation from 1 4π . In order to introduce temperature dependence behavior of η/s, we will follow the formalism in [78][79][80] and continue our studies in [65].…”

“…The curvature squared corrections to pure Einstein-Hilbert action is given by [23] . Following [23], we consider perturbative corrections to the pure Einstein gravity black hole solutions due to the presence of curvature squared terms. Consider the Einstein-Hilbert action in general D dimensions.…”

“…However, the generality of this bound was called into question in [69]. Recently it was shown [70] that for special large N gauge theories whose AdS duals contain D7-branes, the leading 1/N correction to (6.10) is negative; thus, the bound can be violated even for theories that have a holographic description.…”
