We study Rényi entropies for geometries with Lifshitz scaling and hyperscaling violation. We calculate them for specific values of the Lifshitz parameter, and analyze the dual spectrum of the ground state. In the large $d-θ$ limit they show that the ground state is unique in specific parameter ranges. We also calculate the Rényi entropies perturbatively around $n=1$, and derive constraints using the Rényi entropy inequalities, which correspond to the thermodynamic stability of the black holes.
We study the divergent terms and the finite term in the expansion of the holographic entanglement entropy as the ultraviolet cutoff vanishes for smooth spatial regions having arbitrary shape, when the gravitational background is a four dimensional asymptotically Lifshitz spacetime with hyperscaling violation, in a certain range of the hyperscaling parameter. Both static and time dependent backgrounds are considered. For the coefficients of the divergent terms and for the finite term, analytic expressions valid for any smooth entangling curve are obtained. The analytic results for the finite te…
We investigate an Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton-Axion holographic model and obtain two branches of a charged black hole solution with a dynamic exponent and a hyperscaling violation factor when a magnetic field presents. The magnetothermoelectric DC conductivities are then calculated in terms of horizon data by means of holographic principle. We find that linear temperature dependence resistivity and quadratic temperature dependence inverse Hall angle can be achieved in our model. The well-known anomalous temperature scaling of the Nernst signal and the Seebeck coefficient of cuprate strange metals…
We study the quasinormal modes of scalar field perturbations in the background of non-Abelian hyperscaling violating Lifshitz black holes. We find that the quasinormal frequencies have no real part so there is no oscillatory behavior in the perturbations, only exponential decay, that is, the system is always overdamped, which guarantees the mode stability of non-Abelian hyperscaling violating Lifshitz black holes. We determine analytically the quasinormal modes for massless scalar fields for a dynamical exponent $z=2$ and hyperscaling violating exponent $\tildeθ>-2$. Also, we obtain numericall…
The derivation of Lifshitz-invariant hydrodynamics from holography, presented in [arXiv:1508.02494] is generalized to arbitrary hyperscaling violating Lifshitz scaling theories with an unbroken U(1) symmetry. The hydrodynamics emerging is non-relativistic with scalar "forcing". By a redefinition of the pressure it becomes standard non-relativistic hydrodynamics in the presence of specific chemical potential for the mass current. The hydrodynamics is compatible with the scaling theory of Lifshitz invariance with hyperscaling violation. The bulk viscosity vanishes while the shear viscosity to en…
We obtain two types of Yang-Mills-dilaton black hole solutions in both Lifshitz and hyperscaling violation spacetimes. We must consider at least three Yang-Mills gauge fields that interact with a scalar field and either $SO(n)$ or $SO(n-1,1)$ gauge symmetry groups, where $n+1$ denotes the dimension of the spacetime. They lead to the spherical and hyperbolic solutions. The obtained solutions in the hyperscaling violation spacetime fall into two categories for $z\neq n-3-\frac{n-5}{n-1}θ$ and $z= n-3-\frac{n-5}{n-1}θ$, where $θ=0$ represents the Lifshitz spacetime. In order to have a real asympt…
We analytically consider the spontaneous formation of a fermionic crystalline geometry in a gravity background with Lifshitz scaling and/or hyperscaling violation. Fermionic vortex lattice solution sourced by the lowest Laundau level has been obtained. Thermodynamic analysis shows that the fermionic vortex lattice favors a triangular configuration, regardless of the values of the Lifshitz scaling $z$ and the hyperscaling violation exponent $θ$. Our results also show that the larger $z$ or lower $θ$ leads to more stable lattices thermodynamically.
Using complexity=action proposal we study the growth rate of holographic complexity for Lifshitz and hyperscaling violating geometries. We will consider both one and two sided black branes in an Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton gravitational theory. We find that in either case Lloyd's bound is violated and the rate of growth of complexity saturates to a value which is greater than twice the mass of the corresponding black brane. This value reduces to the mass of the black brane in the isotropic case. We show that in two sided black brane the saturation happens from above while for one sided black bran…
Non-equilibrium black hole horizons are considered in scaling theories with generic Lifshitz invariance and an unbroken U(1) symmetry. There is also charge-hyperscaling violation associated with a non-trivial conduction exponent. The boundary stress tensor is computed and renormalized and the associated hydrodynamic equations derived. Upon a non-trivial redefinition of boundary sources associated with the U(1) gauge field, the equations are mapped to the standard non-relativistic hydrodynamics equations coupled to a mass current and an external Newton potential in accordance with the general t…
We explore in greater detail our investigations of shear diffusion in hyperscaling violating Lifshitz theories in arXiv:1604.05092 [hep-th]. This adapts and generalizes the membrane-paradigm-like analysis of Kovtun, Son and Starinets for shear gravitational perturbations in the near horizon region given certain self-consistent approximations, leading to the shear diffusion constant on an appropriately defined stretched horizon. In theories containing a gauge field, some of the metric perturbations mix with some of the gauge field perturbations and the above analysis is somewhat more complicate…
We analytically compute the thermoelectric conductivities at zero frequency (DC) in the holographic dual of a four dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Axion-Dilaton theory that admits a class of asymptotically hyperscaling violating Lifshitz backgrounds with a dynamical exponent $z$ and hyperscaling violating parameter $θ$. We show that the heat current in the dual Lifshitz theory involves the energy flux, which is an irrelevant operator for $z>1$. The linearized fluctuations relevant for computing the thermoelectric conductivities turn on a source for this irrelevant operator, leading to several nov…
We present a new family of charged black holes with hyperscaling violating asymptotics and non-trivial horizon topology, for arbitrary Lifshitz exponent $z$ and hyperscaling violation parameter $θ$. They are $(d+2)$-dimensional analytic solutions to a generalized Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton theory with an additional vector field supporting spherical or hyperbolic horizons. The hyperbolic solutions are only consistent with the null energy condition for $1 \le z < 2$ and $θ= d(z-1)$, which explains why they are absent in the pure Lifshitz case. We further study the (extended) thermodynamics of thes…
We study the entropic destruction of heavy quarkonium in strongly coupled theories with an anisotropic scaling symmetry in time and spatial direction. We consider Lifshitz and hyperscaling violation theories which are covariant under a generalized Lifshitz scaling symmetry with the dynamical exponent $z$ and hyperscaling violation exponent $θ$. It is shown that the entropic force depends on the parameters of these theories. In particular, increasing $z$ decreases the entropic force thus reducing the quarkonium dissociation, while increasing $θ$ has opposite effect.
We study quasinormal modes of shear gravitational perturbations for hyperscaling violating Lifshitz theories, with Lifshitz and hyperscaling violating exponents $z$ and $θ$. The lowest quasinormal mode frequency yields a shear diffusion constant which is in agreement with that obtained in previous work by other methods. In particular for theories with $z< d_i+2-θ$ where $d_i$ is the boundary spatial dimension, the shear diffusion constant exhibits power-law scaling with temperature, while for $z=d_i+2-θ$, it exhibits logarithmic scaling. We then calculate certain 2-point functions of the dual …
We consider dyonic black hole in hyperscaling violating Lifshitz theories arised in a four dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton system along with axion fields. Considering the linearised equation of relevant fluctuations in metric and gauge fields, we analytically compute thermoelectric conductivity of the dual theory using Dirichlet boundary condition and find agreement with conductivities obtained in near horizon analysis. We also study temperature dependence of the conductivities.
In this work, we consider a class of hyperscaling violating Lifshitz-like black branes with metric scaling components $z=2$ and $θ=-1$ whose corresponding holographic model can be treated as a non-relativistic fluid exhibiting Lifshitz-type symmetry. Having performed analytical calculations via the Klein-Gordon equation and the linear response theory, the experimental realizations of the concerned model, namely the transport coefficients, are found to behave as $η\propto T^{3/2}$, $σ_{DC} \propto T^{3/2}$, and $ρ_{DC} \propto T^{-3/2}$. The associated metric scaling exponents from the bulk the…
On the IR completion of geometries with hyperscaling violation
本文研究了在全息AdS/CFT框架下描述具有动力学临界指数和超标度破坏指数的场论的常磁通量Einstein-Maxwell-Einstein引力问题的解。这样的解决方案是已知的IR-不完全的，由于存在一个运行的量子，这将推动理论在IR中的强耦合，其中量子校正变得重要。在引入一般修正后，本文研究了在视界附近出现AdS_2 x R^2区域的条件，它为超标度违规解提供了IR-完备。在存在这些修正的情况下，我们构造了明确的数值解，其中几何形状从UV中的AdS_4流动到深IR中的AdS_2 x R^2，中间区域既表现出超标度破坏又表现出Lifshitz标度，我们还提供了对Einstein-Maxwell-Maxwell理论结构的限制，以及在红外中出现的AdS_2 x R^2区域。
We examine the onset of superfluid instabilities for geometries that exhibit hyperscaling violation and Lifshitz-like scaling at infrared and intermediate energy scales, and approach AdS in the ultraviolet. In particular, we are interested in the role of a non-trivial coupling between the neutral scalar supporting the scaling regime, and the (charged) complex scalar which condenses. The analysis focuses exclusively on unstable modes arising from the hyperscaling-violating portion of the geometry. Working at zero temperature, we identify simple analytical criteria for the presence of scalar ins…
Spatially Modulated Instabilities of Geometries with Hyperscaling Violation
我们进行了研究的红外AdS 2 x R2区域的解决方案，爱因斯坦-麦克斯韦-狄龙系统表现出超标度违反和Lifshitz标度的中间制度的可能的不稳定性。专注于解决方案，磁荷，我们探测系统的空间调制波动的响应，并确定区域的参数空间中的红外AdS 2的几何形状是不稳定的扰动。不稳定性存在的条件转化为对规范动力学函数和标量势结构的限制。反过来，这些可以导致对动力学临界指数z和超标度破坏θ的量的限制。因此，我们的分析提供了进一步的证据的概念，真正的基态的“标度”的解决方案与超标度破坏可能是空间调制相位。
In this paper, we investigate the heavy quark potential and the jet quenching parameter in a system with Lifshitz and hyperscaling violation exponents, by using the AdS/CFT correspondence. It is shown that the heavy quark potential and the jet quenching parameter are dependent upon the nonrelativistic parameters. We show how the heavy quark potential changes with the hyperscaling violation parameter θ, dynamical parameter z, temperature T and charge Q. Increasing z and θ lead to increasing and decreasing the potential respectively. The potential decreases and increases by increasing Q and T . …
We consider holographic theories in bulk $(d+1)$-dimensions with Lifshitz and hyperscaling violating exponents $z,θ$ at finite temperature. By studying shear gravitational modes in the near-horizon region given certain self-consistent approximations, we obtain the corresponding shear diffusion constant on an appropriately defined stretched horizon, adapting the analysis of Kovtun, Son and Starinets. For generic exponents with $d-z-θ>-1$, we find that the diffusion constant has power law scaling with the temperature, motivating us to guess a universal relation for the viscosity bound. When the …
We study the possible boundary conditions of scalar field modes in a hyperscaling violation(HV) geometry with Lifshitz dynamical exponent $z (z\geqslant1)$ and hyperscaling violation exponent $θ(θ\neq0)$. For the case with $θ>0$, we show that in the parameter range with $1\leq z\leq 2,~-z+d-1<θ\leq (d-1)(z-1)$ or $z>2,~-z+d-1<θ\leq d-1$, the boundary conditions have different types, including the Neumann, Dirichlet and Robin conditions, while in the range with $θ\leq-z+d-1$, only Dirichlet type condition can be set. In particular, we further confirm that the mass of the scalar field does not p…
By fast Lyapunov indicator (FLI), we study the chaotic dynamics of closed string around charged black brane with hyperscaling violation (HV). The Hawking temperature, Lifshitz dynamical exponent and HV exponent together affect the chaotic dynamics of this system. The temperature plays the role of driving the closed string to escape to infinity. There is a threshold value $z_{\ast}=2$, below which the string is captured by the black brane no matter where the string is placed at the beginning. However, when $z>2$, the string escapes to infinity if it is placed near the black brane at the beginni…
We study the quasinormal modes and thermal radiation of massless spin-0 field perturbations in the background of four-dimensional (4D) non-Abelian charged Lifshitz black branes with $z=2$ hyperscaling violation, which correspond to systems with superconducting fluctuations. After having an analytical solution to the Klein-Gordon equation, we obtain exact quasinormal modes that are purely imaginary. Therefore, there is no oscillatory behavior in the perturbations that guarantees the mode stability of these solutions. We also study the greybody factors, absorption cross-section, and decay rate o…
The aim of this note is to explore Susskind's proposal [arXiv:1802.01198] on the connection between operator size in chaotic theories and the bulk momentum of a particle falling into black holes (see also [arXiv:1804.04156, 1806.05574, 1904.12819, 1912.05996, 2006.03019] for more recent generalizations), in a broad class of models involving Gauss-Bonnet(GB) and Lifshitz-Hyperscaling violating theories in AdS. For Gauss-Bonnet black holes, the operator size is seen to be suppressed as the coupling constant $λ$ is increased. For the Lifshitz-hyperscaling violating theories characterised by the p…
