Abstract
Witten–Sakai–Sugimoto model is used to study Yang–Mills theory with flavors and large number of colors at finite temperature and in the presence of chemical potential for baryon number and isospin. Sources for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] gauge fields on the flavor 8-branes are D4-branes wrapped on [Formula: see text] part of the background. Here, gauge symmetry on the flavor branes has been decomposed as [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is within [Formula: see text] and generated by the diagonal generator. We show various brane configurations, along with the phases in the boundary theory they correspond to, and explore the possibility of phase transition between various pairs of phases.
