SPEAKER: M. Ihl (Porto)
ABSTRACT: I will discuss the phase structure of bilayer and monolayer phases in the (2+1)-dimensional defect field theory whose gravity dual is obtained by embedding D5/anti-D5 probe flavour branes in the singular conifold. I will present in detail the embedding equations, some thermodynamical aspects, and compare the free energies of the resulting configurations at non-zero temperature and external magnetic field perpendicular to the defects.
