Descripción
String Theory and Holography provide a framework which geometrically describes Quantum Field Theory (QFT) phenomena. This has been particularly fruitful for the study of confining QFT, whose strong coupling regime is not accessible through standard QFT techniques. The geometries realizing these type of theories usually have a submanifold that shrinks to zero size at some point. We review some confining models, focusing on the case where the submanifold is a circle, and comment on how it is possible to preserve some amount of supersymmetry in the process.
