On the canonical c-function in 4-d field theories possessing supergravity duals

We study monotonicity and other properties of the canonical c-function (defined through the correlator of the energy-momentum tensor) in some holographic duals of 4-d quantum field theories. The canonical c-function and its derivatives are related to the 5d Green's function of the dual supergra...
