Description

I will discuss the holographic dual of strongly coupled, four-dimensional SYM with massless flavour in the Veneziano limit at finite quark density and finite temperature. The fundamental degrees of freedom are modelled by a distribution of D7-branes with a non-vanishing electric field on their worldvolume that backreacts on the geometry of a stack of colour D3-branes. I will present the RG flows corresponding to this system discuss the thermodynamics of the system.
