Baryon Masses and Wilson Loops for Fractional D3-Branes on the Resolved Conifold

Abstract

We study the IR dynamics of the type IIB supergravity solution describing N D3-branes and M fractional D3-branes on the resolved conifold. The baryon mass and the tension of domain wall in the dual gauge theory are evaluated and compared with those for the deformed conifold. The IR behavior of the solution for the general conifold is also discussed. We show that the area law behavior of the Wilson loop is attributed to the existence of the locus in the IR where the D3-brane charge vanishes.
