Adding flavour to the Polchinski-Strassler background
Riccardo Apreda, Johanna Erdmenger, Dieter Lust +1
As an extension of holography with flavour, we analyze in detail the embedding of a D7-brane probe into the Polchinski-Strassler gravity background, in which the breaking of confor…
Heavy-Light Mesons from the AdS/CFT Correspondence
Johanna Erdmenger, Nick Evans, Johannes Grosse
We propose a holographic description of heavy-light mesons, i.e. of mesons containing a light and a heavy quark. In the semi-classical string limit, we look at the dynamics of stri…
Matrix models for D-particle dynamics and the string/black hole transition
Johanna Erdmenger, Jeong-Hyuck Park, Corneliu Sochichiu
For a generic two-dimensional 0A string background, we map the Dirac-Born-Infeld action to a matrix model. This is achieved using a canonical transformation. The action describes D…
Instantons on D7 brane probes and AdS/CFT with flavour
Riccardo Apreda, Johanna Erdmenger, Nick Evans +2
Recent work on adding flavour to the generalized AdS/CFT correspondence is reviewed. In particular, we consider instanton configurations on two coincident D7 brane probes. These ar…
