We study a holographic model of a relativistic quantum system with a global U(1) symmetry, at non-zero temperature and density. When the temperature falls below a critical value, we find a second-order superfluid phase transition with mean-field critical exponents. In the symmetry-broken phase, we determine the speed of second sound as a function of temperature. As the velocity of the superfluid component relative to the normal component increases, the superfluid transition goes through a tricritical point and becomes first-order.

  1. Splitting dynamics of quantized composite vortices in holographic miscible binary superfluids

    hep-th 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Holographic simulations show that composite vortices in miscible binary superfluids split into singly quantized vortices with temperature-dependent instabilities and no persistent extra vortices.

  2. Superfluids as Higher-form Anomalies

    hep-th 2019-08 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Superfluid hydrodynamics is reformulated as the hydrodynamic theory of an anomalous higher-form symmetry, whose anomaly alone guarantees the Goldstone boson.

  3. Twisted holographic superconductors in external magnetic field

    hep-th 2026-03 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A first-order Seiberg–Witten twist of the bulk gauge fields lowers the critical magnetic field of 3D and 4D holographic superconductors, Bc = Bc⁰(1 − Bc⁰ k̄), mimicking a stronger applied field B_eff = B(1+Bθ).
