The Klebanov-Strassler model with massive dynamical flavors
Francesco Bigazzi, Aldo L. Cotrone, Angel Paredes +1
We present a fully backreacted D3-D7 supergravity solution dual to the Klebanov-Strassler cascading gauge theory coupled to a large number of massive dynamical flavors in the Venez…
Black Holes as Lumps of Fluid
Marco M. Caldarelli, Oscar J. C. Dias, Roberto Emparan +1
The old suggestive observation that black holes often resemble lumps of fluid has recently been taken beyond the level of an analogy to a precise duality. We investigate aspects of…
Phase transitions in large N(c) heavy quark potentials
F. Bigazzi, A. L. Cotrone, A. Paredes
We describe phase transitions in the heavy quark potential in planar gauge theories having wrapped D5-brane string duals. A new phase transition, previously unnoticed in these mode…
First-order flow equations for extremal and non-extremal black holes
Jan Perz, Paul Smyth, Thomas Van Riet +1
We derive a general form of first-order flow equations for extremal and non-extremal, static, spherically symmetric black holes in theories with massless scalars and vectors couple…
Electric/magnetic duality for chiral gauge theories with anomaly cancellation
Jan De Rydt, Torsten T. Schmidt, Mario Trigiante +2
We show that 4D gauge theories with Green-Schwarz anomaly cancellation and possible generalized Chern-Simons terms admit a formulation that is manifestly covariant with respect to…
Klebanov-Witten theory with massive dynamical flavors
Francesco Bigazzi, Aldo L. Cotrone, Angel Paredes
We consider the addition of a large number of massive dynamical flavors to the Klebanov-Witten theory, the quiver gauge theory describing the low energy dynamics of Nc D3-branes at…
