Softening holographic nuclear matter
Christian Ecker, Nicolas Kovensky, Orestis Papadopoulos +1
Baryons in the holographic Witten-Sakai-Sugimoto model are described by instanton solutions on the flavor branes. A commonly used approximation for dense baryonic matter replaces t…

Superstring four-point functions in AdS
Emiliano Barone, Sergio Iguri, Nicolas Kovensky +1
We study spacetime four-point functions of chiral primary operators for superstrings propagating in AdS from the worldsheet perspective, allowing for extern…

Thermal pion condensation: holography meets lattice QCD
Nicolas Kovensky, Andreas Schmitt
The holographic Witten-Sakai-Sugimoto model is often employed to describe strongly-coupled baryonic and isospin-asymmetric matter, for example in the context of neutron stars. Here…
