Abstract

We consider backreacted AdS5×S5AdS_5 \times S^5 coupled with NfN_f massive flavors introduced by D7-branes. The backreacted geometry is in the Veneziano limit with fixed Nf/NcN_f/N_c. By dividing one of the directions into a line segment with length ll, we get two subspaces. Then we calculate the entanglement entropy between them. With the method provided by Klebanov, Kutasov and Murugan, we are able to find the cut-off independent part of the entanglement entropy and finally find that this geometry shows no phase transition as the case in pure AdS5×S5AdS_5 \times S^5.
