There is no known model in holography exhibiting a c-theorem where the
central charges of the dual CFT are distinct. We examine a holographic model of
RG flows in a framework where the bulk gravity theory contains higher curvature
terms. The latter allows us to distinguish the flow of the central charges a
and c in the dual field theories in four dimensions. One finds that the flow
of a is naturally monotonic but that of c is not. Extending the analysis of
holographic RG flows to higher dimensions, we are led to formulate a novel
c-theorem in arbitrary dimensions for a universal coefficient appearing in the
entanglement entropy of the fixed point CFT's.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure, v2: minor change
