We study striped phases in holographic insulator/superconductor transition by considering a spatially modulated chemical potential in AdS soliton background. Generally striped phases can develop above a critical chemical potential. When the constant leading term in the chemical potential is set to zero, a discontinuity in the plot of charge density versus chemical potential is observed in the limit of large wave vector. We explain this discontinuity using an analytical approach. When the constant leading term in the chemical potential is present, the critical chemical potential is larger than in the case of a homogeneous chemical potential, which indicates that the spatially modulated chemical potential disfavors the phase transition. This behavior is also confirmed qualitatively by analytical calculations. We also calculate the grand canonical potential and find that the striped phase is favored.

  1. Interaction induced quasi-particle spectrum and the origin of the pinning peak in holography

    hep-th 2019-07 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Holographic models with non-minimal interactions produce new quasi-particle spectra that explain pinning peaks as arising from vortex formation due to interaction-induced anomalous magnetic moments.
