abstract

We demonstrate a classical equivalence between the large-N limit of the Higgsed N=1* SUSY U(N) Yang-Mills theory and the Maldacena-Nunez twisted compactification of a six dimensional gauge theory on a two-sphere. A direct comparison of the actions and spectra of the two theories reveals them to be identical. We also propose a gauge theory limit which should describe the corresponding spherical compactification of Little String Theory.

Bound states and deconfinement from Romans supergravity with magnetic flux

hep-th · 2026-05-06 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0 · 2 refs

Holographic analysis of Romans supergravity solutions with Abelian magnetic flux yields a family of confining 4D duals featuring a flux-driven first-order deconfinement transition and two parametrically light, nearly degenerate scalar bound states near the transition.
