Holographic RG flows dual to QFTs on maximally symmetric curved manifolds(dS$_d$, AdS$_d$, and $S^d$) are considered in the framework ofEinstein-dilaton gravity in $d+1$ dimensions. A general dilaton potential isused and the flows are driven by a scalar relevant operator. The generalproperties of such flows are analyzed and the UV and IR asymptotics computed.New RG flows can appear at finite curvature which do not have a zero curvaturecounterpart. The so-called 'bouncing flows', where the $\beta$-function has abranch cut at which it changes sign, are found to persist at finite curvature.Novel quantum first-order phase transitions are found, triggered by a variationin the $d$-dimensional curvature in theories allowing multiple ground states.
