Contribution

It provides a detailed analysis of the reasons behind adopting the Soft Wall holographic model and highlights its benefits over other approaches.

Findings

Soft Wall model effectively captures features of strong interactions.

Holographic duality offers a novel perspective on non-perturbative QCD.

The approach has broad implications across theoretical physics.

Abstract

The hypothesis of gauge/gravity correspondence (or holographic duality) from string theory has led to unexpected and challenging ways for description of strongly coupled systems. Such descriptions are given in terms of weakly-coupled higher-dimensional gravitational theories. The holographic ideas have penetrated many branches of theoretical physics. We discuss motivations for the so-called Soft Wall holographic approach to non-perturbative strong interactions and its advantages.
