Temperature Dependence of In-plane Resistivity and Inverse Hall Angle in NLED Holographic Model

In the strange metal phase of the high-$T_{c}$ cuprates, it is challenging to explain the linear temperature dependence of the in-plane resistivity and the quadratic temperature dependence of the inverse Hall angle. In this paper, we investigate the temperature dependence of the in-plane resistivity and inverse Hall angle in the nonlinear electrodynamics holographic model developed in our recent work. Maxwell electrodynamics and Born-Infeld electrodynamics are considered. Both cases support a wide spectrum of temperature scalings in parameter space. For Maxwell electrodynamics, the T-linear in-plane resistivity generally dominates at low temperatures and survives into higher temperatures in a narrow strip-like manner. Meanwhile, the T-quadratic inverse Hall angle dominates at high temperatures and extends down to lower temperatures. The overlap between the T-linear in-plane resistivity and the T-quadratic inverse Hall angle, if occurs, would generally present in the intermediate temperate regime. The Born-Infeld case with $a>0$ is quite similar to the Maxwell case. For the Born-Infeld case with $a<0$, there can be a constraint on the charge density and magnetic field. Moreover, the overlap can occur for strong charge density.

Thermodynamics and Phase Transitions of Nonlinear Electrodynamics Black Holes in an Extended Phase Space

We investigate the thermodynamic behavior of nonlinear electrodynamics (NLED) black holes in an extended phase space, which includes the cosmological constant $Λ=-3/l^{2}$ and dimensionful couplings $a$ in NLED as thermodynamic variables. For a generic NLED black hole with the charge $Q$, we find that the Smarr relation is satisfied in the extended phase space, and the state of equation can be written as $Tl=\tilde{T}\left( r_{+}/l,Q/l,al^{-c} \right) $, where $\left[ a\right] =L^{c}$, and $T$ and $r_{+}$ are the temperature and horizon radius of the black hole, respectively. For some values of $Q/l$ and $al^{-c}$, the phase structure of the black hole is uniquely determined. Focusing on Born-Infeld and iBorn-Infeld AdS black holes, we obtain the corresponding phase diagrams in the $a/l^{2}$-$Q/l$ plane, which provides a new viewpoint towards the black holes' phase structure and critical behavior. For Born-Infeld black holes, the critical line and the region, where a reentrant phase transition occurs, in the $a/l^{2}$-$Q/l$ plane are both finite and terminate at $\left\{ \tilde{a}_{c}\text{, }\tilde{Q}_{c}\right\} \simeq\left\{ 0.069\text{, }0.37\right\} $. However for iBorn-Infeld black holes, the critical line and the reentrant phase transition region in the $a/l^{2}$-$Q/l$ plane are semi-infinite and extend to $Q/l=\infty$. We also examine thermal and electrical stabilities of Born-Infeld and iBorn-Infeld AdS black holes.

Holographic DC Conductivity for Backreacted Nonlinear Electrodynamics with Momentum Dissipation

We consider a holographic model with the charge current dual to a general nonlinear electrodynamics (NLED) field. Taking into account the backreaction of the NLED field on the geometry and introducing axionic scalars to generate momentum dissipation, we obtain expressions for DC conductivities with a finite magnetic field. The properties of the in-plane resistance are examined in several NLED models. For Maxwell-Chern-Simons electrodynamics, negative magneto-resistance and Mott-like behavior could appear in some parameter space region. Depending on the sign of the parameters, we expect the NLED models to mimic some type of weak or strong interactions between electrons. In the latter case, negative magneto-resistance and Mott-like behavior can be realized at low temperatures. Moreover, the Mott insulator to metal transition induced by a magnetic field is also observed at low temperatures.

Holographic DC Conductivity for a Power-law Maxwell Field

We consider a neutral and static black brane background with a probe power-law Maxwell field. Via the membrane paradigm, an expression for the holographic DC conductivity of the dual conserved current is obtained. We also discuss the dependence of the DC conductivity on the temperature, charge density and spatial components of the external field strength in the boundary theory. Our results show that there might be more than one phase in the boundary theory. Phase transitions could occur where the DC conductivity or its derivatives are not continuous. Specifically, we find that one phase possesses a charge-conjugation symmetric contribution, negative magneto-resistance and Mott-like behavior.

Membrane Paradigm and Holographic DC Conductivity for Nonlinear Electrodynamics

Membrane paradigm is a powerful tool to study properties of black hole horizons. We first explore the properties of the nonlinear electromagnetic membrane of black holes. For a general nonlinear electrodynamics field, we show that the conductivities of the horizon usually have off-diagonal components and depend on the normal electric and magnetic fields on the horizon. Via the holographic duality, we find a model-independent expression for the holographic DC conductivities of the conserved current dual to a probe nonlinear electrodynamics field in a neutral and static black brane background. It shows that these DC conductivities only depend on the geometric and electromagnetic quantities evaluated at the horizon. We can also express the DC conductivities in terms of the temperature, charge density and magnetic field in the boundary theory, as well as the values of the couplings in the nonlinear electrodynamics at the horizon.

Black Hole Radiation with Modified Dispersion Relation in Tunneling Paradigm: Static Frame

Due to the exponential high gravitational red shift near the event horizon of a black hole, it might appears that the Hawking radiation would be highly sensitive to some unknown high energy physics. To study possible deviations from the Hawking's prediction, the dispersive field theory models have been proposed, following the Unruh's hydrodynamic analogue of a black hole radiation. In the dispersive field theory models, the dispersion relations of matter fields are modified at high energies, which leads to modifications of equations of motion. In this paper, we use the Hamilton-Jacobi method to investigate the dispersive field theory models. The preferred frame is the static frame of the black hole. The dispersion relation adopted agrees with the relativistic one at low energies but is modified near the Planck mass $m_{p}$. We calculate the corrections to the Hawking temperature for massive and charged particles to $\mathcal{O}\left(m_{p}^{-2}\right) $ and massless and neutral particles to all orders. Our results suggest that the thermal spectrum of radiations near horizon is robust, e.g. corrections to the Hawking temperature are suppressed by $m_{p}$. After the spectrum of radiations near the horizon is obtained, we use the brick wall model to compute the thermal entropy of a massless scalar field near the horizon of a 4D spherically symmetric black hole. We find that the leading term of the entropy depends on how the dispersion relations of matter fields are modified, while the subleading logarithmic term does not. Finally, the luminosities of black holes are computed by using the geometric optics approximation.

Local geometry from entanglement entropy

Constructing the corresponding geometries from given entanglement entropies of a boundary QFT is a big challenge and leads to the grand project \emph{ it from Qubit}. Based on the observation that the AdS metric in the Riemann Normal Coordinates (RNC) can be summed into a closed form, we find that the AdS$_3$ metric in RNC can be straightforwardly read off from the entanglement entropy of CFT$_2$. We use the finite length or finite temperature CFT$_2$ as examples to demonstrate the identification.

Action Growth in $f\left(R\right)$ Gravity

Inspired by the recent "Complexity = Action" conjecture, we use the approach proposed by Lehner et al. to calculate the rate of the action of the WheelerDeWitt patch at late times for static uncharged and charged black holes in $f\left( R\right) $ gravity. Our results have the same expressions in terms of the mass, charge, and electrical potentials at the horizons of black holes as in Einstein's gravity. In the context of $f\left( R\right) $ gravity, the Lloyd bound is saturated for uncharged black holes but violated for charged black holes near extremality. For charged black holes far away from the ground states, the Lloyd bound is violated in four dimensions but satisfied in higher dimensions.

Testing Holographic Conjectures of Complexity with Born-Infeld Black Holes

In this paper, we use Born-Infeld black holes to test two recent holographic conjectures of complexity, the "Complexity = Action" (CA) duality and "Complexity = Volume 2.0" (CV) duality. The complexity of a boundary state is identified with the action of the Wheeler-deWitt patch in CA duality, while this complexity is identified with the spacetime volume of the WdW patch in CV duality. In particular, we check whether the Born-Infeld black holes violate the Lloyd bound: $\mathcal{\dot{C}\leq}\frac{2}{π\hbar}\left[ \left( M-QΦ\right) -\left( M-QΦ\right) _{\text{gs}}\right] $, where gs stands for the ground state for a given electrostatic potential. We find that the ground states are either some extremal black hole or regular spacetime with nonvanishing charges. Near extremality, the Lloyd bound is violated in both dualities. Near the charged regular spacetime, this bound is satisfied in CV duality but violated in CA duality. When moving away from the ground state on a constant potential curve, the Lloyd bound tend to be saturated from below in CA duality, while $\mathcal{\dot{C}}$ is $π/2$ times as large as the Lloyd bound in CV duality.

Correspondence between genus expansion and $α^{\prime}$ expansion in string theory

In this paper, we demonstrate that locally, the $α^{\prime}$ expansion of a string propagating in AdS can be summed into a closed expression, where the $α'$ dependence is manifested. The T-dual of this sum exactly matches the expression controlling all genus expansion in the Goparkumar-Vafa formula, which in turn also matches the loop expansion of the Chern-Simons gauge theory. We therefore find an exact correspondence between the $α^{\prime}$ expansion for a string moving in AdS and the genus expansion of a string propagating in four dimensional flat spacetime. We are then able to give a closed form of the $α'$ expansion for all values of $\sqrt{α'}/R_{AdS}$. Moreover, the correspondence makes it possible to conjecture the exact $g_s$ dependence of the strongly coupled theories.

WKB Approximation for a Deformed Schrodinger-like Equation and its Applications to Quasinormal Modes of Black Holes and Quantum Cosmology

In this paper, we use the WKB approximation method to approximately solve a deformed Schrodinger-like differential equation: $\left[ -\hbar^{2} \partial_ξ^{2}g^{2}\left( -i\hbarα\partial_ξ\right) -p^{2}\left( ξ\right) \right] ψ\left( ξ\right) =0$, which are frequently dealt with in various effective models of quantum gravity, where the parameter $α$ characterizes effects of quantum gravity. For an arbitrary function $g\left( x\right) $ satisfying several properties proposed in the paper, we find the WKB solutions, the WKB connection formulas through a turning point, the deformed Bohr--Sommerfeld quantization rule, and the deformed tunneling rate formula through a potential barrier. Several examples of applying the WKB approximation to the deformed quantum mechanics are investigated. In particular, we calculate the bound states of the Pöschl-Teller potential and estimate the effects of quantum gravity on the quasinormal modes of a Schwarzschild black hole. Moreover, the area quantum of the black hole is considered via Bohr's correspondence principle. Finally, the WKB solutions of the deformed Wheeler--DeWitt equation for a closed Friedmann universe with a scalar field are obtained, and the effects of quantum gravity on the probability of sufficient inflation is discussed in the context of the tunneling proposal.

Closed String Tachyon Driving $f(R)$ Cosmology

To study quantum effects on the bulk tachyon dynamics, we replace $R$ with $f(R)$ in the low-energy effective action that couples gravity, the dilaton, and the bulk closed string tachyon of bosonic closed string theory and study properties of their classical solutions. The $α^{\prime}$ corrections of the graviton-dilaton-tachyon system are implemented in the $f(R)$. We obtain the tachyon-induced rolling solutions and show that the string metric does not need to remain fixed in some cases. The singular behavior of more classical solutions are investigated and found to be modified by quantum effects. In particular, there could exist some classical solutions, in which the tachyon field rolls down from a maximum of the tachyon potential while the dilaton expectation value is always bounded from above during the rolling process.

Free-fall Frame Black Hole in Gravity's Rainbow

Doubly special relativity (DSR) is an effective model for encoding quantum gravity in flat spacetime. To incorporate DSR into general relativity, one could use "Gravity's rainbow", where the spacetime background felt by a test particle would depend on its energy. In this scenario, one could rewrite the rainbow metric $g_{μν}\left( E\right) $ in terms of some orthonormal frame fields and use the modified equivalence principle to determine the energy dependence of $g_{μν}\left( E\right) $. Obviously, the form of $g_{μν}\left( E\right) $ depends on the choice of the orthonormal frame. For a static black hole, there are two natural orthonormal frames, the static one hovering above it and freely falling one along geodesics. The cases with the static orthonormal frame have been extensively studied by many authors. The aim of this paper is to investigate properties of rainbow black holes in the scenario with the free-fall orthonormal frame. We first derive the metric of rainbow black holes and their Hawking temperatures in this free-fall scenario. Then, the thermodynamics of a rainbow Schwarzschild black hole is studied. Finally, we use the brick wall model to compute the thermal entropy of a massless scalar field near the horizon of a Schwarzschild rainbow black hole in this free-fall scenario.

Homogeneous Field and WKB Approximation In Deformed Quantum Mechanics with Minimal Length

In the framework of the deformed quantum mechanics with minimal length, we consider the motion of a non-relativistic particle in a homogeneous external field. We find the integral representation for the physically acceptable wave function in the position representation. Using the method of steepest descent, we obtain the asymptotic expansions of the wave function at large positive and negative arguments. We then employ the leading asymptotic expressions to derive the WKB connection formula, which proceeds from classically forbidden region to classically allowed one through a turning point. By the WKB connection formula, we prove the Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization rule up to $\mathcal{O}(β)$. We also show that, if the slope of the potential at a turning point is too steep, the WKB connection formula fall apart around the turning point.

The Classical Limit of Minimal Length Uncertainty Relation:Revisit with the Hamilton-Jacobi Method

The existence of a minimum measurable length could deform not only the standard quantum mechanics but also classical physics. The effects of the minimal length on classical orbits of particles in a gravitation field have been investigated before, using the deformed Poisson bracket or Schwarzschild metric. In this paper, we use the Hamilton-Jacobi method to study motions of particles in the context of deformed Newtonian mechanics and general relativity. Specifically, the precession of planetary orbits, deflection of light, and time delay in radar propagation are considered in this paper. We also set limits on the deformation parameter by comparing our results with the observational measurements. Finally, comparison with results from previous papers is given at the end of this paper.

Thermodynamics and Luminosities of Rainbow Black Holes

Doubly special relativity (DSR) is an effective model for encoding quantum gravity in flat spacetime. As a result of the nonlinearity of the Lorentz transformation, the energy-momentum dispersion relation is modified. One simple way to import DSR to curved spacetime is \textquotedblleft Gravity's rainbow", where the spacetime background felt by a test particle would depend on its energy. Focusing on the \textquotedblleft Amelino-Camelia dispersion relation" which is $E^{2}=m^{2}+p^{2}\left[ 1-η\left( E/m_{p}\right) ^{n}\right] $ with $n>0$, we investigate the thermodynamical properties of a Schwarzschild black hole and a static uncharged black string for all possible values of $η$ and $n$ in the framework of rainbow gravity. It shows that there are non-vanishing minimum masses for these two black holes in the cases with $η<0$ and $n\geq2$. Considering effects of rainbow gravity on both the Hawking temperature and radius of the event horizon, we use the geometric optics approximation to compute luminosities of a 2D black hole, a Schwarzschild one and a static uncharged black string. It is found that the luminosities can be significantly suppressed or boosted depending on the values of $η$ and $n$.

Equivalence of open/closed strings

In this paper, we prove that the open and closed strings are $O(D,D)$ equivalent. The equivalence requires an AdS geometry near the boundaries. The $O(D,D)$ invariance is introduced into the Polyakov action by the Tseytlin's action. Traditionally, there exist disconnected open-open or closed-closed configurations in the solution space of the Tseytlin's action. The open-closed configuration is ruled out by the mixed terms of the dual fields. We show that, under some very general guidances, the dual fields are consistently decoupled if and only if the near horizon geometry is $AdS_5$. We then have open-closed and closed-open configurations in different limits of the distances of the $D3$-brane pairs. Inherited from the definition of the theory, these four configurations are of course related to each other by $O(D,D)$ transformations. We therefore conclude that both the open/closed relation and open/closed duality can be derived from $O(D,D)$ symmetries. We then demonstrate the open/closed relation does connect commutative open and closed strings. By analyzing the couplings of the configurations, the low energy effective limits of our results consequently predicts the AdS/CFT correspondence, Higher spin theory, weak gauge/weak gravity duality and a yet to be proposed strong gauge/strong gravity duality. Furthermore, we also have the Seiberg duality and a weak/strong gravitation duality as consequences of $O(D,D)$ symmetries.

Black Hole Radiation with Modified Dispersion Relation in Tunneling Paradigm: Free-fall Frame

Due to the exponential high gravitational red shift near the event horizon of a black hole, it might appear that the Hawking radiation would be highly sensitive to some unknown high energy physics. To study effects of any unknown physics at the Planck scale on the Hawking radiation, the dispersive field theory models have been proposed, which are variations of Unruh's sonic black hole analogy. In this paper, we use the Hamilton-Jacobi method to investigate the dispersive field theory models. The preferred frame is the free-fall frame of the black hole. The dispersion relation adopted agrees with the relativistic one at low energy but is modified near the Planck mass $m_{p}$. The corrections to the Hawking temperature are calculated for massive and charged particles to $\mathcal{O}\left( m_{p}^{-2}\right) $ and neutral and massless particles with $λ=0$ to all orders. The Hawking temperature of radiation agrees with the standard one at the leading order. After the spectrum of radiation near the horizon is obtained, we use the brick wall model to compute the thermal entropy of a massless scalar field near the horizon of a 4D spherically symmetric black hole and a 2D one. Finally, the luminosity of a Schwarzschild black hole is calculated by using the geometric optics approximation.
