DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/AnLy/58/">Co
 nformal to confining SQFTs through holography</a>\nby Dimitrios Chatzis (S
 wansea University) as part of AnLy Strings and Fields online seminars\n\n\
 nAbstract\nHolographic methods have long provided valuable insights into Q
 CD-like theories and other strongly coupled systems. In this talk\, I pres
 ent new work in this direction\, which uses SUSY solitons in 5d gauged sup
 ergravity to systematically construct smooth gravity backgrounds dual to c
 onfining and gapped systems. I will introduce novel solutions across diffe
 rent supergravity theories\, including setups with fundamental matter. The
  dual field theories flow from UV superconformal fixed points to well-defi
 ned IR SQFTs in one dimension lower. A range of field-theory observables i
 s computed holographically\, exhibiting universality and providing strong 
 evidence for confinement and a mass gap. Finally\, I will highlight an int
 riguing numerical result concerning the entanglement entropy between diffe
 rent gauge and fundamental degrees of freedom.\n
