Towards a Perfect QCD Gravity Dual
Nick Evans, Jonathan P. Shock, Tom Waterson
Many examples of gravitational duals exist of theories that are highly supersymmetric and conformal in the UV yet have the same massless states as {\cal N}=2,1,0 QCD. We discuss su…

D7 Brane Embeddings and Chiral Symmetry Breaking
Nick Evans, Jon Shock, Tom Waterson
We study the embedding of D7 brane probes in five geometries that are deformations of AdS_5 x S^5. Each case corresponds to the inclusion of quark fields in a dual gauge theory whe…
