Abstract
We study the embedding of spacetime filling D7-branes in β-deformed backgrounds which, according to the AdS/CFT dictionary, corresponds to flavoring β-deformed = 4 super Yang-Mills. We consider supersymmetric and more general non-supersymmetric three parameter deformations. The equations of motion for quadratic fluctuations of a probe D7-brane wrapped on a deformed three-sphere exhibit a non-trivial coupling between scalar and vector modes induced by the deformation. Nevertheless, we manage to solve them analytically and find that the mesonic mass spectrum is discrete, with a mass gap and a Zeeman-like splitting occurs. Finally we propose the action for the dual field theory as obtained by -product deformation of super Yang-Mills with fundamental matter.
