Description
I review recent ideas about the irreversibility of the RG flow in even dimensions and address the analogous problem in odd dimensions. I construct a class of conformable windows in three dimensions, which satisfy a manifest g <-> 1/g duality and are expected to be relevant to the problem of irreversibility. I discuss the subset 'c=a' of D=3 conformable field theories and address some AdS_4/CFT investigations.
