Universal fingerprint of topological defect cores
Zi-Qiang Zhao, Nayun Jia, Zhang-Yu Nie +3
Topological defects are ubiquitous in physics, arising from condensed matter physics to the early universe. Although there exist many universal scaling laws for correlations betwee…

Stability analysis and double critical phenomenon in the Einstein-Maxwell-scalar theory
Zi-Qiang Zhao, Mei-Ling Yan, Zhang-Yu Nie +2
We investigate the dynamical stability and phase transition behavior in a holographic superfluid model incorporating higher-order self-interaction terms , , and a n…

Topological defect induced phase separation in a holographic system
Zi-Qiang Zhao, Zhang-Yu Nie, Jing-Fei Zhang +1
We investigate the coupled dynamics of symmetry breaking and phase separation during quenches across the critical point in a first-order phase transition. Based on the Einstein-Max…
