Holographic flavor in N=4 gauge theories in 3d from wrapped branes
Alfonso V. Ramallo, Jonathan P. Shock, Dimitrios Zoakos
We study the addition of flavor to the gravity dual of N=4 three-dimensional gauge theories obtained by wrapping D4-branes on a two-cycle of a non-compact Calabi-Yau two-fold…
Complex marginal deformations of D3-brane geometries, their Penrose limits and giant gravitons
Spyros D. Avramis, Konstadinos Sfetsos, Dimitrios Zoakos
We apply the Lunin--Maldacena construction of gravity duals to beta-deformed gauge theories to a class of Type IIB backgrounds with U(1)^3 global symmetry, which include the multic…
On the velocity and chemical-potential dependence of the heavy-quark interaction in N=4 SYM plasmas
Spyros D. Avramis, Konstadinos Sfetsos, Dimitrios Zoakos
We consider the interaction of a heavy quark-antiquark pair moving in N=4 SYM plasma in the presence of non-vanishing chemical potentials. Of particular importance is the maximal l…
On supersymmetry and other properties of a class of marginally deformed backgrounds
Rafael Hernandez, Konstadinos Sfetsos, Dimitrios Zoakos
We summarize our recent work on supergravity backgrounds dual to part of the Coulomb branch of N=1 theories constructed as marginal deformations of N=4 Yang-Mills. In particular, w…
Gravity duals for the Coulomb branch of marginally deformed N=4 Yang-Mills
Rafael Hernandez, Konstadinos Sfetsos, Dimitrios Zoakos
Supergravity backgrounds dual to a class of exactly marginal deformations of N supersymmetric Yang-Mills can be constructed through an SL(2,R) sequence of T-dualities and coordinat…
