Higher derivatives driven symmetry breaking in holographic superconductors

Abstract: In this paper, we construct a novel holographic superconductor from higher derivative (HD) gravity involving a coupling between the complex scalar field and the Weyl tensor. This HD coupling term provides a near horizon effective mass squared, which can violates IR Breitenlohner-Freedman (BF) bound by tuning the HD coupling and induces the instability of black brane such that the superconducting phase transition happens. We also study the properties of the condensation and the conductivity in the probe limit. … Show more

“…It implies a larger superconducting energy gap ω g /T c in the frequency dependent conductivity along y direction, which shall be explicitly demonstrated below. These observations are qualitatively similar to that of the holographic s-wave superconductor from higher derivative theory [31,32,49].…”
