Scale invariance vs. conformal invariance: holographic two-point functions in Horndeski gravity
Abstract We consider Einstein-Horndeski gravity with a negative bare constant as a holographic model to investigate whether a scale invariant quantum field theory can exist without the full conformal invariance. Einstein-Horndeski gravity can admit two different AdS vacua. One is conformal, and the...
