摘要
We discuss domain wall solutions of 5-dimensional supergravity corresponding to a cosine-superpotential, which is derived by a gauging of the two Abelian isometries of the scaler coset SU(2,1)/U(2). We argue that this potential can he obtained from M-theory compactification in the presence of G-fluxes and an M5-brane instanton gas. If Lye decouple the volume scalar of the internal space, the superpotential allows for two extrema, which are either ultra-violet or infra-red attractive. Asymptotically we approach therefore either the boundary or the Killing horizon of an anti-deSitter space or flat spacetime for a vanishing cosmological constant. If the volume scalar does not decouple, we obtain a run-away potential corresponding to dilatonic domain walls, which always run towards a vanishing cosmological constant.
