Chern-Simons diffusion rate in a holographic Yang-Mills theory
Ben Craps, Carlos Hoyos, Piotr Surowka +1
Using holography, we compute the Chern-Simons diffusion rate of 4d gauge theories constructed by wrapping D4-branes on a circle. In the model with antiperiodic boundary conditions…
Holographic Josephson Junctions and Berry holonomy from D-branes
Sophia K. Domokos, Carlos Hoyos, Jacob Sonnenschein
We construct a holographic model for Josephson junctions with a defect system of a Dp brane intersecting a D(p+2) brane. In addition to providing a geometrical picture for the holo…
The a-theorem and conformal symmetry breaking in holographic RG flows
Carlos Hoyos, Uri Kol, Jacob Sonnenschein +1
We study holographic models describing an RG flow between two fixed points driven by a relevant scalar operator. We show how to introduce a spurion field to restore Weyl invariance…
A new large-N limit and the planar equivalence outside the planar limit
Mitsutoshi Fujita, Masanori Hanada, Carlos Hoyos
We consider a new large-N limit, in which the 't Hooft coupling grows with N. We argue that a class of large-N equivalences, which is known to hold in the 't Hooft limit, can be ex…
Holographic realization of large-Nc orbifold equivalence with non-zero chemical potential
Masanori Hanada, Carlos Hoyos, Andreas Karch +1
Recently, it has been suggested that large-Nc orbifold equivalences may be applicable to certain theories with chemical potentials, including QCD, in certain portions of their phas…
