Gapless and gapped holographic phonons
Andrea Amoretti, Daniel Areán, Blaise Goutéraux +1
We study a holographic model where translations are both spontaneously and explicitly broken, leading to the presence of (pseudo)-phonons in the spectrum. The weak explicit breakin…
Holographic fundamental matter in multilayered media
Ulf Gran, Niko Jokela, Daniele Musso +2
We describe a strongly coupled layered system in 3+1 dimensions by means of a top-down D-brane construction. Adjoint matter is encoded in a large- stack of D3-branes, while fu…
Phonon and Shifton from a Real Modulated Scalar
Daniele Musso, Daniel Naegels
We study a massive real scalar field that breaks translation symmetry dynamically. Higher-gradient terms favour modulated configurations and neither finite density nor temperature…
Diffusion and universal relaxation of holographic phonons
Andrea Amoretti, Daniel Areán, Blaise Goutéraux +1
In phases where translations are spontaneously broken, new gapless degrees of freedom appear in the low energy spectrum (the phonons). At long wavelengths, they couple to small flu…
