A Gravity Dual of the Chiral Anomaly
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study effects associated with the chiral anomaly for a cascading SU(N+ M)×SU(N) gauge theory using gauge/gravity duality. In the gravity dual the anomaly is a classical feature of the supergravity solution, and the breaking of the U(1) R-symmetry down to Z2M proceeds via the Higgs mechanism.

Topological Origin of Chiral Symmetry Breaking in QCD and in Gravity
We show that the assumption of non-zero topological susceptibility of the vacuum in a fermion-free version of a theory, such as gravity or QCD, suffices to conclude the following: Once Nf massless fermion flavors are added to the theory, they break the chiral flavor symmetry dynamically, down to a subgroup that would be anomaly-free under gauging; In both theories, the pseudo-Goldstone correspo...
متن کاملFault Strike Detection Using Satellite Gravity Data Decomposition by Discrete Wavelets: A Case Study from Iran
Estimating the gravity anomaly causative bodies boundary can facilitate the gravity field interpretation. In this paper, 2D discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is employed as a method to delineate the boundary of the gravity anomaly sources. Hence, the GRACE’ satellite gravity data is decomposed using DWT. DWT decomposites a single approximation coefficients into four distinct components: the appr...
متن کاملThe Geometry of N = 2 Strings with Torsion
N = 2 string theories are formulated in space-times with 2 space and 2 time dimensions. If the world-sheet matter system consists of 2 chiral superfields, the space-time is Kahler and the dynamics are those of anti-self-dual gravity. If instead one chiral superfield and one twisted chiral superfield are used, the space-time is a hermitian manifold with torsion and a dilaton. The string spectrum...
متن کاملGeneral treatment of anomalies in ( 1 , 0 ) and ( 1 , 1 ) two - dimensional super - gravity
In this paper we discuss the interplay among (super-)coordinate, Weyl and Lorentz anomaly both in chiral and non-chiral super-gravity represented by (1, 0) and (1, 1) two-dimensional models. It is shown that for this purpose two regu-larization dependent parameters are needed in the effective action. We discuss in full generality the regularization ambiguities of the induced effective action an...
متن کاملGauge / Gravity duality with a chiral N = ( 0 , 8 ) string defect
We study the defect AdS/CFT correspondence for a system of Nc D3-branes intersecting certain configurations of D7-branes and O7-planes in 1 + 1-dimensions. The intersection is chiral, preserving N = (0, 8) supersymmetry. The geometry produced by the 7-branes does not decouple in the low energy limit on the D3-branes; consequently the field theory must be considered in the curved background of t...
