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,…
Progress on Holographic Vacuum Misalignment
Ali Fatemiabhari, Daniel Elander, Maurizio Piai
We summarise highlights from an ongoing research programme that aims, in the long run, at the ambitious goal of building a realistic, complete holographic composite-Higgs model. Th…
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=…
On Holographic Vacuum Misalignment
Daniel Elander, Ali Fatemiabhari, Maurizio Piai
We develop a bottom-up holographic model that provides the dual description of a strongly coupled field theory, in which the spontaneous breaking of an approximate global symmetry…
Conformal to confining SQFTs from holography
Dimitrios Chatzis, Ali Fatemiabhari, Carlos Nunez +1
In this paper we present three new families of smooth Type II string theory backgrounds. These are dual to supersymmetry-preserving deformations of 4d SCFTs. The deformations inclu…
From conformal to confining field theories using holography
Ali Fatemiabhari, Carlos Nunez
We construct a new family of Type IIB backgrounds that are dual to five dimensional conformal field theories compactified and deformed by VEVs of certain operators. This generates…
