Holographic lattice in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton gravity

Abstract: We construct an ionic lattice background in the framework of Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory in four dimensional space time. The optical conductivity of the dual field theory on the boundary is investigated. Due to the lattice effects, we find the imaginary part of the conductivity is manifestly suppressed in the zero frequency limit, while the DC conductivity approaches a finite value such that the previous delta function reflecting the translation symmetry is absent. Such a behavior can be exactly fit by the… Show more

“…The most straightforward way is to impose inhomogeneous boundary conditions of the bulk fields to break translation invariance [3][4][5][6][7][8]. Massive gravity models studied in [9][10][11][12][13] give mass terms to gravitons, which break the spatial diffeomorphisms (not the radial and temporal ones), and consequently break momentum conservation of the boundary field theory with translational invariance unbroken [11].…”

“…In the case that m 2 = −2, the general solution of the equation (2.10) is a linear combination of e ±Qr . 5 Requiring that ϕ(r) does not diverge exponentially as r → ∞, we obtain ϕ(r) = V re −Qr .…”

“…Of recent interest are the applications of the AdS/CFT correspondence to condensed matter physics. A notable step forward in this direction has been the construction of gravitational background in which the charge density is spatially modulated and translational invariance is explicitly broken [1][2][3][4][5]. These systems are commonly denoted as "holographic lattices".…”

“…The level of small distances and/or high energies may cause the breakdown of geometrical continuum as well. Examples are offered by lattice or grids in which the interactions are modified at either classical or quantum levels [72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79]. Assuming quantum effects, in analogy to what happens in quantum mechanics, there would exist indivisible units with corresponding minimal lengths associated with certain physical domains.…”
