The abstract, sentence by sentence

arXiv listing abstract v2. Results and the main claim are underlined; show every role.

We consider systems of Dp branes in the presence of a nonzero B field. We study the corresponding supergravity solutions in the limit where the branes worldvolume theories decouple from gravity. These provide dual descriptions of large N noncommutative field theories. We analyse the phase structure of the theories and the validity of the different description. We provide evidence that in the presence of a nonzero B field the worldvolume theory of D6 branes decouples from gravity. We analyse the systems of M5 branes and NS5 branes in the presence of a nonzero C field and nonzero RR fields, respectively. Finally, we study the Wilson loops (surfaces) using the dual descriptions.

Original abstract

We consider systems of Dp branes in the presence of a nonzero B field. We study the corresponding supergravity solutions in the limit where the branes worldvolume theories decouple from gravity. These provide dual descriptions of large N noncommutative field theories. We analyse the phase structure of the theories and the validity of the different description. We provide evidence that in the presence of a nonzero B field the worldvolume theory of D6 branes decouples from gravity. We analyse the systems of M5 branes and NS5 branes in the presence of a nonzero C field and nonzero RR fields, respectively. Finally, we study the Wilson loops (surfaces) using the dual descriptions.

For every homogeneous Yang-Baxter deformation of AdS5, the open-string metric is undeformed AdS5 with constant coupling, and the noncommutativity tensor equals minus twice the deformation parameter times the r-matrix.

In this paper, we construct the noncommutative deformation of the holographic QCD at finite temperature in imitation of the method by Alishahiha et al. [ref] and Arean et al.
