We first examine an appropriate form of fermionic solutions by restricting the mass coupling for the five dimensional bulk fermions and bosons. We then derive approximated analytic solutions for the nucleons and the corresponding masses in a small mass coupling region. In order to treat meson and nucleon properties on the same footing, we introduce the same infrared (IR) cut in such a way that the meson-nucleon coupling constants, i.e., g_{pi NN} and g_{rho NN} are uniquely determined. The first order approximation with respect to a dimensionless expansion parameter, which is valid in the small mass coupling region, explicitly shows difficulties to avoid the IR scale problem of the hard wall model. We discuss possible ways of circumventing these problems.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2009-08-31T08:48:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "holographic qcd", "unified approach", "small mass coupling region", "hard wall model", "ir scale problem" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "IOP", "journal": "Journal of High Energy Physics", "year": 2009, "month": "Nov", "volume": 2009, "number": 11, "pages": "034" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 829365, "adsabs": "2009JHEP...11..034K" } } }
