The dimensional reduction, in a form of transition from four to two dimensions, was used in the 90s in a context of HE Regge scattering. Recently, it got a new impetus in quantum gravity where it opens the way to renormalizability and…

We construct zero-temperature geometries that interpolate between a Lifshitz fixed point in the UV and an IR phase that breaks spatial rotations but preserves translations. We work with a simple holographic model describing two massive…
In this study, the strong coupling constants of the unobserved heavy axial tensor mesons to the heavy vector and pseudoscalar $\pi$ and $K$ mesons, $D_2 D^* \pi$, $D_{s2} D^* K$, $B_2 B^* \pi$, $B_{s2} B^* K$ as well as a heavy axial tensor…
The couplings $g_{\rho HH}$ of the $\rho$ meson with any hadron H are calculated in a holographic dual of QCD where the Regge trajectories for mesons are manifest. The resulting couplings grow linearly with the exciting number of H, thus…
