Universality of DC Electrical Conductivity from Holography
arXiv:1512.01917 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2017.01.056
Abstract
We propose a universal formula of dc electrical conductivity in rotational- and translational- symmetries breaking systems via the holographic duality. This formula states that the ratio of the determinant of the dc electrical conductivities along any spatial directions to the black hole area density in zero-charge limit has a universal value. As explicit illustrations, we give several examples elucidating the validation of this formula: We construct an anisotropic black brane solution, which yields linear in temperature for the in-plane resistivity and insulating behavior for the out-of-plane resistivity; We also construct a spatially isotropic black brane solution that both the linear-T and quadratic-T contributions to the resistivity can be realized.
