The D4/D8 Model and Holographic QCD

As a top-down holographic approach, the D4/D8 model is expected to be a holographic version of QCD, since it almost includes all the elementary features of QCD based on string theory. In this manuscript, we review the fundamental properties of the D4/D8 model with respect to the D4-brane background...

Summary:As a top-down holographic approach, the D4/D8 model is expected to be a holographic version of QCD, since it almost includes all the elementary features of QCD based on string theory. In this manuscript, we review the fundamental properties of the D4/D8 model with respect to the D4-brane background and the embedding of the flavor branes, holographic quark, gluon, meson, baryon and glueball with various symmetries; then, we take a look at some interesting applications and developments based on this model.
