3D Yang-Mills confining properties from a non-Abelian ensemble perspective by D. R. Junior, L. E. Oxman, G. M. Simões

Superconformal anomalies for string defects in six-dimensional N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = (1, 0) SCFTs by Fabio Apruzzi, Noppadol Mekareeya, Brandon Robinson, Alessandro Tomasiello

“…We also find agreement between the holographic computation of the expectation value of a surface operator wrapping a torus and the supersymmetric localization computation for a circular Wilson loop in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 super Yang-Mills theory on . Lastly, we holographically compute the defect gravitational anomaly from the Wess-Zumino action of the probe D4-brane, which provides a subleading large N correction to the defect A-type anomaly.…”

Schwinger-Type Pair Production in Non-SUSY AdS/CFT by Udit Narayan Chowdhury

“…We study pair production of particles in the presence of an external electric field in a large N non-supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory using the holographic duality. The dual geometry we consider is asymptotically AdS and is effectively parametrized by two parameters, u0 and −5/2<δ≤0, both of which can be related to the effective mass of quark/antiquark for non-supersymmetric theories. …”
