We elaborate on the existence of a spurious massless scalar mode in the vector channel of soft-wall models with incorrectly chosen sign of the exponential profile defining the wall. We re-iterate the point made in our earlier paper and demonstrate that the presence of the mode is robust, depending only on the infra-red asymptotics of the wall. We also re-emphasize that desired confinement properties can be realized with the correct sign choice.

  1. Learning holographic QCD with unflavored meson spectra

    hep-ph 2025-12 conditional novelty 7.0

    Neural network learns confining potentials and dilaton profile in holographic QCD from meson spectra, predicting steeper IR dilaton and pion masses with good accuracy.

  2. Learning holographic QCD with unflavored meson spectra

    hep-ph 2025-12 conditional novelty 5.0

    Neural networks trained on rho, a1, a2 and f0 mass spectra reconstruct a holographic QCD background with scalar potential k1 X^3 + k2 X^4 (k1 ~ -8, k2 ~17) and claim a pion-mass prediction that is partly circular.
