By requiring the correct Regge behavior in both meson and nucleon sectors, we determine the infrared asymptotic behavior of various background fields in the soft-wall AdS/QCD model, including the dilaton, the warp factor, and the scalar…
The superconformal algebraic approach to hadronic physics is used to construct a semiclassical effective theory for nucleons which incorporates essential nonperturbative dynamical features, such as the emergence of a confining scale and the…
We consider a holographic model of QCD, obtained by a very simple modification of the original construction, which describes at the same time the pion mass, the QCD anomalies and the baryons as topological solitons. We study in detail its…
A surprisingly good holographic description of QCD can be obtained from naive five dimensional gauge theory on a truncated AdS space. We seek to improve the infra-red description of QCD in such models by using a more sophisticated metric…
The mass spectra of light-flavor mesons are analyzed in a deformed AdS/QCD soft-wall model, driven by four distinct anomalous 5-dimensional mass corrections of the scalar field, coupled to Einstein--Hilbert gravity, from the QCD running…
We apply the subtraction method to an effective QCD-inspired model, which includes the Coulomb plus a zero-range hyperfine interactions, to define a renormalized Hamiltonian for mesons. The spectrum of the renormalized Hamiltonian agrees…
We explore some possibilities for obtaining useful metrics and dilatons for AdS/QCD models. As a guideline, we consider dilatons and/or metrics that on the one hand reproduce the mesonic spectrum, and that on the other hand allow us a…
We put forward a new bottom-up AdS/QCD holographic model bearing a distinct treatment of the pion fields. We argue that a standard approach to the pion description is neither transparent nor totally satisfactory. In the paper we provide a…
Holographic QCD is an extra-dimensional approach to modeling hadrons, the bound states of the strong interactions. In holographic models, the extra spatial dimension creates a waveguide for fields, and the discrete towers of modes…
A holographic description of chiral symmetry breaking in the pattern of QCD is reviewed. D7 brane probes are used to include quark fields in a simple non-supersymmetric deformation of the AdS/CFT Correspondence. The axial symmetry breaking…
We use classical/large Nc (number of colors) QCD to study nucleon--antinucleon annihilation at rest. We include pion, rho and omega fields in the classical dynamics, starting from the nonlinear sigma model. We begin with a spherical blob of…
In this paper a model incorporating chiral symmetry breaking and dynamical soft-wall AdS/QCD is established. The AdS/QCD background is introduced dynamically as suggested by Wayne de Paula etc al and chiral symmetry breaking is discussed by…
In a dilute system of instantons and antiinstantons, the U$_{\rm A}$(1) and scale anomalies are shown to be directly related to the bulk susceptibility and compressibility of the system. Using $1/N_c$ (where $N_c$ is the number of colors)…
We investigate meson's spectrum, decay constant and form factor in a nuclear medium through holographic two- and three-point correlation functions. To describe a nuclear medium composed of protons and neutrons, we consider a hard wall model…
Holographic models of QCD provide the spectrum of heavy vector meson masses and electromagnetic decay constants through bulk computations of the current-current correlation function. Conversely, the phenomenology of heavy vector mesons is…
A longstanding problem with the popular Sakai-Sugimoto holographic dual of thermal QCD is that the "mesinos", the (non-supersymmetric) fermionic partners of the mesons, are nearly isospectral with mesons and have an unsuppressed…
A new Hamiltonian model is introduced to study the spectrum of light hadrons. It combines relativistic field theory with elements of the constituent quark model. In addition to the standard linear confining and pseudoscalar meson exchange…
The limit of a large number of QCD colours gives a useful approximation scheme to the physical hadronic world. A brief overview of the mesonic sector is presented. The large-Nc constraints on the low-energy chiral couplings are summarized…
The correspondence between theories in anti-de Sitter space and field theories in physical space-time leads to an analytic, semiclassical model for strongly-coupled QCD which has scale invariance at short distances and color confinement at…
Building on recent research into five-dimensional holographic models of QCD, we extend this work by including the strange quark with an SU(3)_L\times SU(3)_R gauge symmetry in the five-dimensional theory. In addition we deform the naive…
