Continuous Hawking-Page transitions in Einstein-scalar gravity
Umut Gursoy
We investigate continuous Hawking-Page transitions in Einstein's gravity coupled to a scalar field with an arbitrary potential in the weak gravity limit. We show that this is only…

Improved Holographic QCD
Umut Gürsoy, Elias Kiritsis, Liuba Mazzanti +2
We provide a review to holographic models based on Einstein-dilaton gravity with a potential in 5 dimensions. Such theories, for a judicious choice of potential are very close to t…

Exploring improved holographic theories for QCD: Part II
U. Gursoy, E. Kiritsis, F. Nitti
This paper is a continuation of ArXiv:0707.1324 where improved holographic theories for QCD were set up and explored. Here, the IR confining geometries are classified and analyzed.…
