Holograhic two-currents model with coupling and its conductivites

TL;DR

This paper develops a holographic two-currents model with coupling, deriving analytical conductivities that depend on the coupling parameter, revealing a transition to a hard-gap-like behavior at strong coupling.

Contribution

It introduces a coupled two-gauge-field holographic model with analytical solutions for conductivities, highlighting the impact of coupling on transport properties.

Findings

Conductivities depend explicitly on the coupling parameter θ.

Increasing θ deepens the low-frequency dip in Re[σ], leading to a hard-gap-like feature at θ=1.

Conductivities exhibit monotonic behaviors with respect to model parameters.

Abstract

We implement a holographic gravity model of two gauge fields with a coupling between them, which is dual to a two-currents model. An analytical black brane solution is obtained. In particular, we work out the expressions of conductivities with coupling and find that the expressions of conductivities are directly related to the coupling parameter $\theta$. It is the main topic of our present work. As an application, we calculate the conductivities by the scheme outlined here and briefly discuss the properties of the conductivities. An interesting property is that as the coupling $\theta$ increases, the dip at low frequency in $Re[\sigma_A]$/$Re[\sigma_B]$ becomes deepening and then turns into a hard-gap-like when $\theta=1$, which is independent of the doping $\chi$. Some monotonic behaviors of the conductivities are also discussed.
