Description
We describe the emergence of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in holographic QCD via a non-linear extension of the soft wall model with non-minimal couplings. We investigate the behaviour of meson masses and decay constants as a function of the quark mass. In the chiral limit we show the emergence of Nambu-Goldstone bosons in the pseudo-scalar sector and reproduce the Gell-Mann-Oakes-Renner (GOR) relation.
