Confinement and chiral symmetry breaking in holography: a smooth switch-off
Martà Berenguer, Johanna Erdmenger, Nick Evans +2
We revisit the holographic description of the thermal first order phase transition of N=4 SYM compactified on a spatial circle. At the transition, the dominant bulk saddle exchange…
Chiral symmetry restoration for helical magnetic fields in holography
Nick Evans, Wanxiang Fan
We study the chiral symmetry breaking effects of helical magnetic fields in a simple bottom up AdS/CFT model. We explore the instability of the chirally symmetric solution in the p…
Holography for QCD(Adj) and QCD(Adj)+F
Anja Alfano, Nick Evans, Wanxiang Fan
We discuss confinement and chiral symmetry breaking in SU(Nc) gauge theories with fermions in the adjoint representation. There has been considerable work on studying these theorie…
Designer bubble walls in a holographic Weyl semi-metal with magnetic field
Nick Evans, Wanxiang Fan
We study bubble walls in the holographic D3/probe D7 system that is dual to strongly coupled quark dynamics. We work to construct holographic descriptions of bubble wall junctions…
