A bstractCorrelators of gauge invariant operators provide useful information on the dynamics, phases and spectra of a quantum field theory. In this paper, we consider four dimensional $ \mathcal{N} $ = 1 supersymmetric theories and focus our attention on the supercurrent multiplet. We give a complete characterization of two-point functions of operators belonging to such multiplet, like the energy-momentum tensor and the supercurrent, and study the relations between them. We discuss instances of… 

Analytic pseudo-Goldstone bosons

A bstractWe consider the interplay between explicit and spontaneous symmetry breaking in strongly coupled field theories. Some well-known statements, such as the Gell-Mann-Oakes-Renner relation,

A goldstino at the bottom of the cascade

A bstractWorking within a five-dimensional consistent truncation of type IIB super-gravity dimensionally reduced on T1,1, we consider supersymmetry breaking solutions with the asymptotics of the

Anatomy of new SUSY breaking holographic RG flows

A bstractWe find and thoroughly study new supergravity domain wall solutions which are holographic realizations of supersymmetry breaking strongly coupled gauge theories. We set ourselves in an N$$

Applications of Holography

This thesis consists of four parts. In the first part of the thesis, we investigate the phase structure of Einstein-Maxwell-Scalar system with a negative cosmological constant. We chart out the full

Conformal symmetry breaking in holographic QCD

In this paper, we investigate a simple holographic model which describes the conformal symmetry breaking at zero temperature. The model is implemented in the context of effective holographic models

We consider a holographic set-up where relativistic invariance is broken by a chemical potential, and a non-abelian internal symmetry is broken spontaneously. We use the tool of holographic

Holographic R-symmetric flows and the τU conjecture

A bstractWe discuss the holographic counterpart of a recent conjecture regarding R-symmetric RG flows in four-dimensional supersymmetric field theories. In such theories, a quantity τU can be defined

Holographic correlators for general gauge mediation

A bstractWe use holographic techniques to compute two-point functions of operators belonging to a conserved current supermultiplet in theories which break supersymmetry at strong coupling. These are

Anti-de Sitter space and holography

Recently, it has been proposed by Maldacena that large $N$ limits of certain conformal field theories in $d$ dimensions can be described in terms of supergravity (and string theory) on the product of

Gravity dual of metastable dynamical supersymmetry breaking

Metastable, supersymmetry-breaking configurations can be created in flux geometries by placing antibranes in warped throats. Via gauge/gravity duality, such configurations should have an
