15 Derivative expansion consider the D3 solution with general F let F be a slowly varying function of the world-volume coordinates x a analogy with fluid/gravity correspondence set up a perturbative procedure to build a corrected solution world-volume derivative expansion zeroth order D3 with constant F

16 First order neglect in the EOMs all the terms with more than one world-volume derivative equations with one world-volume derivative correction are b ( e η φ H bar e η+φ χf bar) = 4r4 c 6r 5 ɛcd (F bcd + χh bcd ) (1) b ( e η+φ F bar) = 4r4 c 6r 5 ɛcd H bcd (2) 1 2 b(h bc r h ca ) 1 2 Γc h bd r h dc = 1 2 aη r η aφ r φ e2φ a χ r χ e φ η H a bc H bcr eφ η F a bc F bcr (3)

17 First order Consider the ove equations to leading order at large r Eq. (1) b H bar = 0 b (mg 1 F) ba = 0 Eq. (2) b F bar = 0 b ( F) ba = 0 df = 0 Eq. (3) b r h ba = 0 b (mg 1 ) ba = 0 these are the constraints on the variation of F Exactly the same eqs we got from the B!

18 Higher-derivative correction starting from second order corrections to the zeroth order solution general corrected solution Y (x a, r) = Y (0) (x a, r) + Y (2) (x a, r) + Y (4) (x a, r) + O( 6 ) Y = (χ, φ, A, B, η, h ) no corrections with an odd number of world-volume derivatives covariant expression in terms of F no

19 Second order Eq.s that determine Y (2) H m, (0) Y (2) +H m, (1) involve two world-volume derivatives (2) ry +H m, (2) 2 r Y (2) = K m,, a b Y (0) +L m,,j ay (0) b Y (0) solution in a large r expansion has the form to leading order at large r χ (2) = B (2) η (2) = r4 c 16r 2 a a (F F) + O(r 6 ) Y (2) = n=0 = r4 c 4r 2 3 c [c (mg 1 F) ] + O(r 6 ) A (2) ( r4 c TrG 16r 2 c c m C (2),n r 2+4n φ (2) = r4 c 4r 2 a a ( m TrG 4m = r4 c 4r 2 3 c [c F ] + O(r 6 ) ) + O(r 6 ) ) + O(r 6 ) h (2) = r4 c 4r 2 c c(mg 1 ) + O(r 6 )

20 Third order Third order eq.s to leading order at large r Eq. (1) b H bar = 0 b c [c (mg 1 F) ] = 0 Eq. (2) b F bar = 0 b c [c F ] = 0 Eq. (3) b r h ba = 0 b c c (mg 1 ) ba = 0 these are trivially satisfied assuming the first order constraints

21 Fourth order fourth order corrections at large r Y (4) = C (4),0 ( ) C(4),4 1 log r + r 4 + O r 8 one can easily compute C (4),0 ( C (4) χ,0 = r4 c (F F) C (4) φ,0 = r4 c m TrG ) 4m C (4) B,0 = r4 c c [c (mg 1 F) ] C (4) A,0 = r4 c c [c F ] ( C (4) η,0 = r4 c TrG m where 2 = a a the next-to-leading coefficient C (4),4 cannot be fixed ) C (4) h,0 = r4 c (mg 1 )

22 Comparison with the B the constraints we got at first and third order are consistent with the B ones what out the corrections to the fields at second and fourth order? corrections to the metric corrections to EM tensor compare this corrected EM tensor with B EM tensor derivative corrections B higher

23 Reading off the energy-momentum tensor EM tensor can be read off from the metric in the asymptotic region in our approximation the asymptotic region is r c r R linearize the metric h = η + h η = η with h 1, η 1 make the gauge choice η h = 4 η and b hba = 0 imagine an infinitely thin 3-brane sitting at r = 0 with EM tensor τ (x c ) on the brane linearized Einstein equations in the region r c r R [ 2 r + 5 r r + c c ] h = 16πG δ 6 (r)τ

24 Linearized Einstein eq.s assume τ varies slowly along the world-volume expand τ in higher-derivative corrections τ = τ (0) + τ (2) + τ (4) + O( 6 ) expand h in higher-derivative contributions h = h (0) linearized Einstein eq.s become [ r r r [ r ] r r [ r r r + h (2) + h (4) + O( 6 ) ] h (0) = 16πG δ6 (r)τ (0) h (2) + c c h (0) = 16πG δ6 (r)τ (2) ] h (4) + c c h (2) = 16πG δ6 (r)τ (4)
