We consider high-energy fixed-angle scattering of glueballs in confining gauge theories that have supergravity duals. Although the effective description is in terms of the scattering of strings, we find that the amplitudes are hard (power law). This is a consequence of the warped geometry of the dual theory, which has the effect that in an inertial frame the string process is never in the soft regime. At small angle we find hard and Regge behaviors in different kinematic regions.

  1. Holographic duality from a four-fermion interaction: emergent AdS$_3$/CFT$_2$, D-branes, and Einstein gravity

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    The bosonic AdS3/CFT2 duality emerges from the Gross-Neveu model via higher-spin composites and fluctuations in competing spin-0 and spin-1 condensates that define the radial bulk coordinate.

  2. Regge spectral generator and form factors from hard exclusive amplitudes in holographic QCD

    hep-ph 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The infinite tower of hard exclusive amplitudes in holographic light-front QCD produces a spectral generator G(α,λ) that encodes the full Regge spectrum and yields analytic form factors and parton distributions.

  3. Bouncing singularities and thermal correlators on line defects

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Retarded correlators of displacement operators on line defects in holographic thermal CFTs exhibit bouncing singularities that match between interior-sensitive WKB and boundary-only OPE analyses.

    In light-front holographic QCD the nucleon gravitational form factor B_N(t) vanishes exactly in the symmetric limit due to an antisymmetric longitudinal factor and remains strongly suppressed for realistic nucleon wav...
