Resumo
Existem poucas dúvidas de que a QCD seja a teoria correta das interações fortes. As dificuldades em resolver a teoria em baixas energias no regime fortemente acoplado e não perturbativo tem deixado sem respostas muitas questões importantes, tais como a natureza do confinamento e o mecanismo de hadronização. Diversos métodos têm sido usados para estudar suas propriedades e consequências a baixas energias. Esses métodos incluem a QCD na rede, as equações de Dyson- Schwinger, a teoria de perturbação chiral e os modelos de quarks. Recentemente, a dualidade gauge/gravidade tem fornecido uma nova maneira de acessar o regime fortemente acoplado de uma teoria de calibre via uma teoria de gravidade dual, em especial da QCD através de modelos holográficos. Tais modelos são usualmente denominados modelos holográficos para a QCD, ou apenas modelos AdS/QCD. Nesta tese investigamos importantes problemas de interesse atual em física hadrônica envolvendo as quebras das simetrias chiral e de sabor usando modelos holográficos para a QCD. Estes problemas são: (1) o desaparecimento das constantes de decaimento leptônicas dos estados excitados do pion no limite quiral; (2) os efeitos da quebra de simetria de sabor no acoplamentos do méson rho aos mésons charmosos D and D^{*} e seus fatores de forma eletromagnéticos; (3) os efeitos de um campo magnético e da temperatura sobre o condensado quiral, sinalizando uma catálise magnética inversa.
There is little doubt that QCD is the correct theory for the strong interactions. The difficulties in solving the theory at low energies in the strongly interacting, non-perturbative regime have left unanswered many important questions, such as the nature of confinement and the mechanism of hadronization. Several approaches have been used to study its properties and consequences at low energies. These include lattice QCD, Dyson-Schwinger equations, chiral perturbation theory and quark models. More recently, the gauge/gravity duality has provided a new way to access the strongly coupled regime of a gauge theory via a dual gravity theory, in special of QCD through holographic models. Such models are usually named as holographic QCD models, or just AdS/QCD models. In this thesis, we investigate three problems of contemporary interest in hadronic physics involving the chiral and flavor symmetries holographic QCD models. These problems are: (1) the vanishing of the leptonic decay constants of the excited states of the pion in the chiral limit; (2) the effects of the flavor symmetry breaking on the strong couplings of the rho meson to the charmed D and D^{*} mesons and the their electromagnetic form factors; (3) the effects of a magnetic field and temperature on the chiral condensate, signalizing inverse magnetic catalysis.
