Elaborations on the String Dual to N=1 SQCD
Roberto Casero, Carlos Nunez, Angel Paredes
In this paper we make further refinements to the duality proposed between N=1 SQCD and certain string (supergravity plus branes) backgrounds, working in the regime of comparable la…
Chiral symmetry breaking as open string tachyon condensation
Roberto Casero, Elias Kiritsis, Angel Paredes
We consider a general framework to study holographically the dynamics of fundamental quarks in a confining gauge theory. Flavors are introduced by placing a set of (coincident) bra…
A Note on the String Dual of N=1 SQCD-like Theories
Roberto Casero, Angel Paredes
In this note we describe how N=1 SQCD-like theories with a large number of flavors can be given a dual description in terms of a string background containing a large number of addi…
Supersymmetric solutions of supergravity from wrapped branes
Angel Paredes
We consider several solutions of supergravity with reduced supersymmetry which are related to wrapped branes, and elaborate on their geometrical and physical interpretation. The Ki…
