HOLOGRAPHIC SUPERCONDUCTOR FOR A LIFSHITZ FIXED POINT

Abstract

We consider the gravity dual of strongly coupled system at a Lifshitz-fixed point and finite temperature, which was constructed in a recent work arXiv:0909.0263. We construct an Abelian-Higgs model in that background and calculate condensation and conductivity using holographic techniques. We find that condensation happens and DC conductivity blows up when temperature turns below a critical value. We also study the zero temperature limit of strongly coupled system at the Lifshitz-fixed point.
