Thermodynamic Supercriticality and Complex Phase Diagram for Charged AdS Black Holes in Trace Anomaly Gravity

Minyan Ou, Xiangdong Zhang, Zhang-Yu Nie

We extend the Lee-Yang phase transition framework to charged anti-de Sitter (AdS) black holes in four-dimensional trace anomaly gravity. By treating the horizon radius as a complex…

Phase transitions in scalarized topological AdS black holes

Zi-Qiang Zhao, Zhang-Yu Nie, Shao-Wen Wei +2

We investigate the behavior of black hole scalarization induced by a charged scalar field in the extended phase space of the asymptotic AdS spacetime with three distinct horizon to…

Holographic s+p superconductors with nonlinear electrodynamics

Ru-Qing Chen, Hui Zeng, Zhang-Yu Nie

We investigate a holographic s+p superconductor model coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics in the probe limit. The equations of motion are solved numerically, and the condensates a…

Phase separation seeded by Z2 and U(1) topological defects from holography

Zi-Qiang Zhao, Zhang-Yu Nie, Jing-Fei Zhang +1

We study the interaction between spontaneous symmetry breaking and phase separation dynamics in holography. Using a double-quench protocol, the system first rapidly crosses the cri…

Nonequilibrium crossover in the supercritical region from quench dynamics

Zi-Qiang Zhao, Zhang-Yu Nie, Jing-Fei Zhang +1

Distinguishing different subphases in the supercritical region is an important issue in statistical physics and condensed matter physics. Traditional approaches rely mainly on stat…

Interior geometry of black holes as a probe of first-order phase transition

Zi-Qiang Zhao, Zhang-Yu Nie, Shao-Wen Wei +2

Traditional diagnostics of black hole phase transitions rely on thermodynamic quantities defined at the event horizon or asymptotic boundary. Here, we demonstrate that the near-sin…
