Electric conductivity in non-Hermitian holography
arXiv:2304.11183 · doi:10.21468/SciPostPhys.16.1.004
Abstract
We study the phase structure and charge transport at finite temperature and chemical potential in the non-Hermitian PT-symmetric holographic model of arXiv:1912.06647. The non-Hermitian PT-symmetric deformation is realized by promoting the parameter of a global U(1) symmetry to a complex number. Depending on the strength of the deformation, we find three phases: stable PT-symmetric phase, unstable PT-symmetric phase, and an unstable PT-symmetry broken phase. In the three phases, the square of the condensate and also the spectral weight of the AC conductivity at zero frequency are, respectively, positive, negative, and complex. We check that the Ferrell-Glover-Tinkham sum rule for the AC conductivity holds in all the three phases. We also investigate a complexified U(1) rotor model with PT-symmetric deformation, derive its phase structure and condensation pattern, and find a zero frequency spectral weight analogous to the holographic model.
