One-dimensional backreacting holographic p-wave superconductors (1901.10540v1)

Abstract: We analytically as well as numerically study the properties of one-dimensional holographic p- wave superconductors in the presence of backreaction. We employ the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem for the analytical calculation and the shooting method for the numerical investigations. We apply the AdS3/CFT2 correspondence and determine the relation between the critical temperature Tc and the chemical potential \mu for different values of mass m of charged spin-1 field and backreacting parameters. We observe that the data of both analytical and numerical studies are in good agreement. We find out that increasing the backreaction as well as the mass parameter cause the greater values for Tc/ \mu. Therefore, it makes the condensation harder to form. In addition, the analytical and numerical approaches show that the value of the critical exponent \beta is 1/2 which is the same as in the mean field theory. Moreover, both methods confirm the exhibition of a second order phase transition.
