Ground states of holographic superconductors
Steven S. Gubser, Abhinav Nellore
We investigate the ground states of the Abelian Higgs model in AdS_4 with various choices of parameters, and with no deformations in the ultraviolet other than a chemical potential…
Universal relations of transport coefficients from holography
Aleksey Cherman, Abhinav Nellore
We show that there are universal high-temperature relations for transport coefficients of plasmas described by a wide class of field theories with gravity duals. These theories can…
A bound on the speed of sound from holography
Aleksey Cherman, Thomas D. Cohen, Abhinav Nellore
We show that the squared speed of sound v_{s}^{2} is bounded from above at high temperatures by the conformal value of 1/3 in a class of strongly coupled four-dimensional field the…
Low-temperature behavior of the Abelian Higgs model in anti-de Sitter space
Steven S. Gubser, Abhinav Nellore
We explore the low-temperature behavior of the Abelian Higgs model in AdS_4, away from the probe limit in which back-reaction of matter fields on the metric can be neglected. Over…
Thermodynamics and bulk viscosity of approximate black hole duals to finite temperature quantum chromodynamics
Steven S. Gubser, Abhinav Nellore, Silviu S. Pufu +1
We consider classes of translationally invariant black hole solutions whose equations of state closely resemble that of QCD at zero chemical potential. We use these backgrounds to…
Mimicking the QCD equation of state with a dual black hole
Steven S. Gubser, Abhinav Nellore
We present numerical and analytical studies of the equation of state of translationally invariant black hole solutions to five-dimensional gravity coupled to a single scalar. As an…
