The Tachyon Chern-Simons action with a generic tachyon field, and baryons in V-QCD

Jean-Loup Raymond, Matti Järvinen, Elias Kiritsis +2

Consistency with global flavor anomalies requires the presence of Chern-Simons terms in holographic models of QCD. Such terms are analyzed in a setup arising in the holographic V-Q…

Flavour current correlators and the non-Abelian hydrodynamic approximation: the charged sector

Thomas Apostolidis, Matti Järvinen, Elias Kiritsis +3

Flavor-current correlators are studied in strongly-coupled dense (holographic) matter, at finite quark chemical potential and finite isospin asymmetry. The non-Abelian hydro…

The phase diagram of confining holographic theories on constant curvature manifolds in the presence of a -angle

Ahmad Ghodsi, Elias Kiritsis, Francesco Nitti

Large families of confining holographic QFTs, described by Einstein-Dilaton gravity, are considered on constant-curvature manifolds in the presence of a -angle. The space of gr…

On the spectra of holographic QFTs on constant curvature manifolds

Ahmad Ghodsi, Elias Kiritsis, Parisa Mashayekhi +1

We analyze linear fluctuations of five-dimensional Einstein-Dilaton theories dual to holographic quantum field theories defined on four-dimensional de Sitter and Anti-de Sitter spa…

Improved Holographic QCD on a Curved Background: an Application of Dynamical System Theory in Holography

Elias Kiritsis, Francesco Nitti, Jean-Loup Raymond

The finite-curvature phase diagram of IHQCD, a bottom-up holographic model for large non-supersymmetric YM, is investigated. This holographic theory belongs to a class of…

Holographic confining theories on space-times with constant positive curvature

Jani Kastikainen, Elias Kiritsis, Francesco Nitti

Varying the curvature, quantum phase transitions are investigated in holographic confining QFTs defined on a fixed constant positive curvature background. We find a competition bet…
