We provide a review to holographic models based on Einstein-dilaton gravity with a potential in 5 dimensions. Such theories, for a judicious choice of potential are very close to the physics of large-N YM theory both at zero and finite temperature. The zero temperature glueball spectra as well as their finite temperature thermodynamic functions compare well with lattice data. The model can be used to calculate transport coefficients, like bulk viscosity, the drag force and jet quenching parameters, relevant for the physics of the Quark-Gluon Plasma.

  1. Localised Horizons and Holographic Thermodynamics: Supercooling in the 1/D Expansion

    hep-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    For a large class of holographic confining gauge theories far from conformality, the maximum supercooling equals half the squared speed of sound at the critical temperature, up to 1/D corrections.

  2. Quark flavors in hot and dense holographic QCD: setup and comparison to data

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A 2+1 flavor holographic QCD model fitted to lattice thermodynamics predicts a smoother nuclear-to-quark matter transition with lower latent heat than earlier V-QCD models.

  3. Transport coefficients and quasinormal modes in Einstein-dilaton holographic QCD

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    For the quadratic-dilaton Einstein-dilaton holographic model, the vector-sector dispersion relation gives η/s = 1/(4π), and the Kubo-formula bulk viscosity matches JETSCAPE data within a fitted range of the dilaton pa...

  4. Interplay of magnetic field and chemical potential induced anisotropy and frame dependent chaos of a $Q\bar{Q}$ pair in holographic QCD

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In a holographic QCD model, chaotic string dynamics appear only for unstable configurations near the horizon, and magnetic field and chemical potential affect chaos oppositely in string and Einstein frames.
