Spread Complexity for Local Operator Quenches with Conserved Momentum

Ali Fatemiabhari

We study a family of locally excited states in two-dimensional conformal field theories in different setups, defined on the plane, on the cylinder, or at finite temperature. These…

Bound states and deconfinement from Romans supergravity with magnetic flux

Ali Fatemiabhari, Maurizio Piai

We apply the dictionary of gauge-gravity dualities to study the spectrum of bound states in a special one-parameter family of strongly coupled, confining field theories in four dim…

Holographic Entanglement Entropy in Quiver Theories

Dimitrios Chatzis, Ali Fatemiabhari, Mauro Giliberti +1

This work presents a study of the entanglement entropy (EE) in a class of four-dimensional linear quiver SCFTs deformed by the presence of a VEV. We review the hologra…

On the stability of holographic confinement with magnetic fluxes

Ali Fatemiabhari, Carlos Nunez, Maurizio Piai +1

We analyze the stability properties of a simple holographic model for a confining field theory. The gravity dual consists of an Abelian gauge field, with non-trivial magnetic flux,…

Confinement and screening via holographic Wilson loops

Mauro Giliberti, Ali Fatemiabhari, Carlos Nunez

We present the holographic dual to a family of SCFTs in four dimensions, deformed by a VEV leading to a gapped system. We calculate Wilson loops in this system contain…

SCFT deformations via uplifted solitons

Dimitrios Chatzis, Ali Fatemiabhari, Carlos Nunez +1

A holographic method for implementing a particular supersymmetry-preserving deformation to 4d SCFTs is presented. At the heart of the procedure is a soliton solution of minimal $d=…
