“…However, it is possible to write an action involving both dualities of C 4 , and then impose the selfduality as a supplementary field equation. In this way, one obtains (see, for example, [37][38][39])…”

Abstract. We review recent progress in studying mesons within gauge/gravity duality, in the context of adding flavour degrees of freedom to generalizations of the AdS/CFT correspondence. Our main focus is on the "top-down approach" of considering models constructed within string theory. We explain the stringtheoretical constructions in detail, aiming at non-specialists. These give rise to a new way of describing strongly coupled confining large-N gauge theories similar to large-N QCD. In particular, we consider gravity dual descriptions of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking, and compare with lattice results. A further topic covered is the behaviour of flavour bound states in finite-temperature field theories dual to a gravity background involving a black hole. We also describe the "bottom up" phenomenological approach to mesons within AdS/QCD. Some previously unpublished results are also included.PACS. 11.15.-q Gauge field theories -11.25.Tq Gauge/string duality -12.40.Yx Hadron mass models and calculations -14.40.-n Mesons

“…In D = 2 dimensional space-time, chiral bosons (p = 0) occur as basic ingredients and elements in the formulation of heterotic strings [1] and in a number of statistical systems [2]. In D > 2 dimensional space-time, chiral 2-and 4-forms are relevant to the M-theory five-brane [3,4] and type IIB supergravity [5][6][7], respectively. Chiral p-forms are described by an antisymmetric pth order tensor A (p) in the D = 2(p + 1) dimensional space-time, whose external differential F (p+1) (A) = dA (p) satisfies the self-duality condition…”

The self-duality of chiral p-forms was originally investigated by Pasti, Sorokin and Tonin in a manifestly Lorentz covariant action with non-polynomial auxiliary fields. The investigation was then extended to other chiral p-form actions. In this paper we point out that the self-duality appears in a wider context of theoretical models that relate to chiral p-forms. We demonstrate this by considering the interacting model of FloreaniniJackiw chiral bosons and gauge fields, the generalized chiral Schwinger model (GCSM) and the latter's gauge invariant formulation, and discover that the self-duality of the GCSM corresponds to the vector and axial vector current duality.

There is a linear relation between them so that, after the gauge fixing of the local U(1) simmetry, only two scalars and two 6 The complex conjugate φ * of a complex field φ will be denoted byφ but for an SU (1, 1) doublet ψ = dual eigth-forms survive.

“…To write the complete action, one needs the trasformation rules under supersymmetry. The supersymmetry trasformations and the field equations of IIB supergravity are well known at a non lagrangian level [5], [6] and can be conveniently derived in a superspace approach [4], [6], [7]. In section 2 we review and sligthly improve this approach, the improvement being that we present the rheonomic parametrizations not only for the basic curvatures but also for their duals.…”
