We calculate the holographic entanglement entropy for the holographic QCD phase diagram considered in [Knaute, Yaresko, K\"ampfer (2017), arXiv:1702.06731] and explore the resulting qualitative behavior over the temperature-chemical…
It is well known that the Soft-Wall holographic model for QCD successfully reproduces not only the linear Regge spectrum, but also, via the holographic Wilson confinement criterion, the ''linear plus Coulomb'' confinement potential similar…
Till date, the only consistent description of the deconfinement phase of the Sakai-Sugimoto model appears to be provided by the analysis of [1] (arXiv:1107.4048). The current version of the analysis, however, has a subtlety regarding the…

The constraint on the total energy in a given spatial region is given from holography by the mass of a black hole which just fits in that region, which leads to an UV/IR relation: the maximal energy density in that region is proportional to…
