Unquenched Flavor in the Gauge/Gravity Correspondence

Figure 9

A qualitative plot of the situation with cohomogeneity 2 models. The red dot in the center represents the color branes and each vertical line is a flavor brane. Taking a lot of them smeared along the 𝜙₂ angle, the rotational symmetry associated to this angle is effectively recovered. Any function of the ansatz depends on the radial coordinates 𝜌 and 𝜎.
