Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the fifth dimension with scalars and gravity
TL;DR: In this article, a method for obtaining solutions to the classical equations for scalars plus gravity in five dimensions is applied to some recent suggestions for brane-world phenomenology, which involves only first order differential equations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Holography and defect conformal field theories
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the near-horizon description of a D5-D3 brane configuration in string theory, realized as AdS_5 x S^5 bisected by an AdS-4 x S 2 "brane", is dual to N=4 Super Yang-Mills theory in R^4 coupled to an R^3 defect.
Journal ArticleDOI
Type IIA Moduli Stabilization
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that flux compactifications of type IIA string theory can classically stabilize all geometric moduli, including all moduli stabilized at arbitrarily large volume, weak coupling, and small negative cosmological constant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scales and hierarchies in warped compactifications and brane worlds
TL;DR: DeWolfe et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated the relationship between geometrical and dynamical scales of superpotential and Kahler potentials, including the effects of warping.
Journal ArticleDOI
A holographic critical point
TL;DR: In this article, a family of five-dimensional black holes exhibiting a line of first-order phase transitions terminating at a critical point at finite chemical potential and temperature is constructed so that the equation of state and baryon susceptibilities approximately match QCD lattice data at vanishing chemical potential.
