Abstract:We investigate analytically the properties of the Weyl holographic superconductor in the Lifshitz black hole background. We find that the critical temperature of the Weyl superconductor decreases with increasing Lifshitz dynamical exponent, z, indicating that condensation becomes difficult. In addition, it is found that the critical temperature and condensation operator could be affected by applying the Weyl coupling, γ. Moreover, we compute the critical magnetic field and investigate its dependence on the parameters γ and z. Finally, we show numerically that the Weyl coupling parameter γ and the Lifshitz dynamical exponent z together control the size and strength of the conductivity peak and the ratio of gap frequency over critical temperature ω g /T c .

We analytically describe the properties of the s-wave holographic superconductor with the Exponential nonlinear electrodynamics in the Lifshitz black hole background in four-dimensions. Employing an assumption the scalar and gauge fields backreact on the background geometry, we calculate the critical temperature as well as the condensation operator. Based on Sturm-Liouville method, we show that the critical temperature decreases with increasing exponential nonlinear electrodynamics and Lifshitz dynamical exponent, z, indicating that condensation becomes difficult. Also we find that the effects of backreaction has a more important role on the critical temperature and condensation operator in small values of Lifshitz dynamical exponent, while z is around one. In addition, the properties of the upper critical magnetic field in Lifshitz black hole background using Sturm-Liouville approach is investigated to describe the phase diagram of the corresponding holographic superconductor in the prob limit. We observe that the critical magnetic field decreases with increasing Lifshitz dynamical exponent, z, and it goes to zero at critical temperature, independent of the Lifshitz dynamical exponent, z.

We suggest that using the first law of thermodynamics is a convenient method to obtain a correct form of the expansion law of the universe \cite{T. Padmanabhan1}. We will, then, use this idea to obtain the expansion law for a Kodama observer. By using the expansion law for a Kodama observer, we can obtain the dynamic equation of the FRW universe for deformed Horava-Lifshitz gravity. The use of the first law of thermodynamics also leads to a new approach for obtaining the Friedmann equations for f(R) and scalar tensor gravities.Comment: 7 page

We study the phase transitions in the metal/superconductor system using topological invariants of the Ryu-Takayanagi (RT ) surface and the volume enclosed by the RT surface in the Lifshitz black hole background. It is shown that these topological invariant quantities identify not only the phase transition but also its order. According to these findings a discontinuity slope is observed at the critical points for these invariant quantities that correspond to the second order of phase transition. These topological invariants provide a clearer illustration of the superconductor phase transition than do the holographic entanglement entropy and the holographic complexity. Also, the backreaction parameter, k, is found to have an important role in distinguishing the critical points. The reducing values of the parameter k means that the backreaction of the matter fields are negligible. A continuous slope is observed around the critical points which is characteristic of the probe limit. In addition, exploring the nonlinear electrodynamic, the effects of the nonlinear parameter, β, is investigated. Finally the properties of conductivity are numerically explored in our model.
