Kibble-Zurek Mechanism and Current-Phase Relation in a Holographic Josephson Junction

Zhi-Hong Li, Huai-Fan Li, Hai-Qing Zhang

We present a comprehensive study of the current-phase relation of the Josephson junction in a holographic superfluid ring, realized from the stochastic and non-equilibrium dynamics…

Holographic Superfluid Ring with a Weak Link

Zhi-Hong li, Huai-Fan Li

We explore the generation of topological defects in the course of a dynamical phase transition in a ring with a weak link, i.e., a SSS Josephson junction, from the AdS/CFT correspo…

From black hole to one-dimensional chain: parity symmetry breaking and kink formation

Zhi-Hong Li, Han-Qing Shi, Hai-Qing Zhang

AdS/CFT correspondence is a "first-principle" tool to study the strongly coupled many-body systems. While it has been extensively applied to investigate the continuous symmetry bre…

Holographic topological defects in a ring: role of diverse boundary conditions

Zhi-Hong Li, Han-Qing Shi, Hai-Qing Zhang

We investigate the formation of topological defects in the course of a dynamical phase transition with different boundary conditions in a ring from AdS/CFT correspondence. Accordin…

Periodicities in a multiply connected geometry from quenched dynamics

Zhi-Hong Li, Hai-Qing Zhang

Exploring the lowest energy configurations of a quantum system is consistent with the counting statistics of the frequently appeared states from quenching dynamics. By studying the…

Holographic topological defects and local gauge symmetry: clusters of strongly coupled equal-sign vortices

Zhi-Hong Li, Chuan-Yin Xia, Hua-Bi Zeng +1

Gauge invariance plays an important role in forming topological defects. In this work, from the AdS/CFT correspondence, we realize the clusters of equal-sign vortices during the co…

Topological Defects Formation with Momentum Dissipation

Zhi-Hong Li, Hua-Bi Zeng, Hai-Qing Zhang

We employ holographic techniques to explore the effects of momentum dissipation on the formation of topological defects during the critical dynamics of a strongly coupled supercond…

Universal Statistics of Vortices in a Newborn Holographic Superconductor: Beyond the Kibble-Zurek Mechanism

Adolfo del Campo, Fernando Javier Gómez-Ruiz, Zhi-Hong Li +3

Traversing a continuous phase transition at a finite rate leads to the breakdown of adiabatic dynamics and the formation of topological defects, as predicted by the celebrated Kibb…

Formation and critical dynamics of topological defects in Lifshitz holography

Zhi-Hong Li, Chuan-Yin Xia, Hua-Bi Zeng +1

We examine the formation and critical dynamics of topological defects via Kibble-Zurek mechanism in a (2+1)-dimensional quantum critical point, which is conjectured to dual to a Li…

Competing s-wave orders from Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity

Zhi-Hong Li, Yun-Chang Fu, Zhang-Yu Nie

In this paper, the holographic superconductor model with two s-wave orders from 4+1 dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity is explored in the probe limit. At different values of…
