Global \(R\)-currents and phase transitions in large \(N c\) gauge theory




Abstract: We study, using a gravity dual, the finite temperature dynamics of SU(Nc) gauge theory for large Nc, with fundamental quark flavours in a quenched approximation, in the presence of a fixed R--charge under a global R--current. We observe several notable phenomena. There is a first order phase transition where the quark condensate jumps discontinuously at finite quark mass, generalizing similar transitions seen at zero charge. Our tool in these studies is holography, the string dual of the gauge theory being the geometry of Nc spinning D3--branes at finite temperature, probed by a D7--brane.
