Holographic Baryons as Quantum Hall Droplets

Francesco Bigazzi, Aldo Lorenzo Cotrone, Andrea Olzi +1

We provide a first-principle construction of baryons as quantum Hall droplets in single-flavor holographic QCD. The baryons are described as charged D6-branes with a circular bound…

Holographic Hagedorn Temperature: Strong Coupling, Flavor and -angle Effects

Francesco Bigazzi, Tommaso Canneti, Aldo L. Cotrone +1

We study the Hagedorn temperature of strongly coupled quantum field theories admitting a holographic string or M-theory description in various regimes and scenarios. In the f…

Hagedorn temperature in holography: world-sheet and effective approaches

Francesco Bigazzi, Tommaso Canneti, Federico Castellani +2

We provide general results on the Hagedorn temperature of planar, strongly coupled confining gauge theories holographically dual to type II superstring models on curved backgrounds…

Cosmic Topological Defects from Holography

Francesco Bigazzi, Aldo L. Cotrone, Andrea Olzi

This work investigates cosmic topological defects in gauge theories, focusing on models with an gauge group coupled with a single flavor, explored through a holographic fra…

Higher Order Corrections to the Hagedorn Temperature at Strong Coupling

Francesco Bigazzi, Tommaso Canneti, Aldo L. Cotrone

We propose a general formula for higher order corrections to the value of the Hagedorn temperature of a class of holographic confining gauge theories in the strong coupling expansi…
