摘要

Varying the curvature, quantum phase transitions are investigated in holographic confining QFTs defined on a fixed constant positive curvature background. We find a competition between two branches of solutions and a phase transition as one varies the space-time curvature. The low-curvature phase has the same kind of IR geometry as the flat-space solution, while the high-curvature phase has a regular interior. We argue that, depending on the leading asymptotic exponent of the scalar potential, the transition may be first-order or higher-order.
