N=4$$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ Super-Yang-Mills on conic space as hologram of STU topological black hole
A bstractWe construct four-dimensional N=4$$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ super-Yang-Mills theories on a conic sphere with various background R-symmetry gauge fields. We study free energy and supersymmetric Rényi entropy using heat kernel method as well as localization technique. We find that the universal contribution to the partition function in the free field limit is the same as that in the strong coupling limit, which implies that it may be protected by supersymmetry. Based on the fact that, the conic sphere can be conformally mapped to S1×ℍ3$$ {\mathbb{S}}^1\times {\mathrm{\mathbb{H}}}^3 $$ and the R-symmetry background fields can be supported by the R-charges of black hole, we propose that the holographic dual of these theories are five-dimensional, supersymmetric STU topological black holes. We demonstrate perfect agreement between N=4$$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ super-Yang-MillstheoriesintheplanarlimitandtheSTUtopologicalblackholes.

Comments on Baryon Melting in Quark Gluon Plasma with Gluon Condensation
We consider a black hole solution with a non-trivial dilaton from IIB super gravity which is expected to describe a strongly coupled hot gauge plasma with non-vanishing gluon condensation present. We construct a rotating and moving baryon to probe the screening and phases of the plasma. Melting of the baryons in hot plasma in this background had been studied previously, however, we show that baryons melt much lower temperature than has been suggested previously.

Holographic melting of heavy baryons in plasma with gluon condensation
We propose a Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) D5 vertex brane plus N(c) fundamental strings configuration to describe a baryon probe in strongly coupled gauge theory with gluon condensation at finite temperature via AdS/CFT correspondence. We investigate properties of this configuration in a dilaton deformed AdS(5) x S(5) background, in which IIB string theory is dual to super Yang-Mills theory in a state with a constant self-dual gauge field (F(mn) = F(mn)*) background. We find that for most values of temperature T and gluon condensation parameter q (q = pi(2) ), there always exists a screening length L(s). The relation L(s) similar to 1/T has been checked. We give the q dependence of L(s). We calculate the boost velocity nu(nu = - tanh eta) and angular velocity omega dependence of L(s) for a baryon probe, and obtain L(s) = L(0)* (1-nu(2))(1/4) for large nu and L(s) similar to omega(-1), which are consistent with those dependence relations in the point brane plus strings case, and find that the usual relations have been modified by q. We also calculate the mass of baryon and find T dependence of baryon mass.

Holographic RG flow and sound modes of sQGP
A bstractWe consider the hydrodynamics of strongly interacting quark gluon plasma in finite temperature and density using the holographic duality of charged black hole in anti DeSitter space. We calculate the transport coefficients at arbitrary energy scale by considering the holographic screen at finite radial position. We first calculate the flow of sound velocity in this method and check the consistence with previous result. Then we calculate diffusion constant of charge and find that Einstein relation between susceptibility, conductivity and diffusion constants will hold at arbitrary slice.

Mixed RG flows and hydrodynamics at finite holographic screen
A bstractWe consider a strongly interacting gauge theory at finite temperature and chemical potential and study renormalization group flows of transport coefficients in the framework of gauge/gravity duality. We first study them using the flow equations and compare the results with hydrodynamic results by calculating the Green functions on the arbitrary slice. Two results match exactly. Transport coefficients at arbitrary scale are obtained by calculating hydrodynamics Green functions. When either momentum or charge vanishes, transport coefficients decouple from each other.

Dirac neutrinos with S"4 flavor symmetry in warped extra dimensions
We present a warped extra dimension model with the custodial symmetry SU(2)(L) x SU(2)(R) x U(1)(X) x P-LR based on the flavor symmetry S-4 X Z(2) x Z(2)', and the neutrinos are taken to be Dirac particles. At leading order, the democratic lepton mixing is derived exactly, and the high-dimensional operators introduce corrections of order lambda(c) to all the three lepton mixing angles such that agreement with the experimental data can be achieved. The neutrino mass spectrum is predicted to be of the inverted hierarchy and the second octant of theta(23) is preferred. We suggest the modified democratic mixing, which is obtained by permuting the second and the third rows of the democratic mixing matrix, should be a good first order approximation to understanding sizable theta(13) and the first octant of theta(23). The constraints on the model from the electroweak precision measurements are discussed. Furthermore, we investigate the lepton mixing patterns for all the possible residual symmetries G(nu) and G(l) in the neutrino and charged lepton sectors, respectively. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V.

Neutrino masses and flavor mixing in a generalized inverse seesaw model with a universal two-zero texture
A generalized inverse seesaw model, in which the 9 x 9 neutrino mass matrix has vanishing (1,1) and (1,3) submatrices, is proposed. This is similar to the universal two-zero texture which gives vanishing (1,1) and (1,3) elements of the 3 x 3 mass matrices in both the charged lepton and neutrino sectors. We consider the Z(6) x Z(6) group to realize such texture zeros in the framework of the generalized inverse seesaw model. We also analyze the universal two-zero texture in the general case and propose two Ansatze to reduce the number of free parameters. Taking account of the new result of theta(13) from the Daya Bay experiment, we constrain the parameter space of the universal two-zero texture in the general case and in the two Ansatze, respectively. We find that one of the Ansatze works well.

Enhancement of dark matter relic density from late time dark matter conversions
We demonstrate that if the dark matter (DM) in the Universe contains multiple components, the possible interactions between the DM components may convert the heavier DM components into lighter ones. It is then possible that the lightest DM component with an annihilation cross section significantly larger than that of the typical weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) may lead to a relic density in agreement with cosmological observations, due to an enhancement of number density from the DM conversion process at late time after the thermal decoupling. This may provide an alternative source of boost factor relevant to the positron and electron excesses reported by the recent DM indirect search experiments.

Chiral couplings of W ′ and top quark polarization at the LHC
If a TeV-scale charged gauge boson (W') is discovered at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), it will become imperative to determine its chiral couplings to standard model (SM) fermions in order to learn about the underlying theory containing the W'. We describe the reconstruction of the tb decay mode of the W' at the LHC, and identify various kinematic observables such as the angular distributions of the top quark and the lepton resulting from top decay that can be used to disentangle the chiral couplings of the W' to SM fermions. We demonstrate by presenting analytical expressions, numerical simulations, as well as intuitive illustrations for these observables at the LHC that among the SM fermions, the polarized top quark can most directly probe the chirality of such couplings.
