Abstract
We study the Einstein-axions AdS black hole from Born–Infeld electrodynamics. Various DC transport coefficients of the dual boundary theory are analytically computed. The DC electric conductivity depends on the temperature, which is a novel property comparing to that in RN-AdS black hole. The effects of Born-Infeld parameter on the transport coefficients are analyzed. Also, we study the AC electric conductivity from Born–Infeld electrodynamics with momentum dissipation. For weak momentum dissipation, the low frequency behavior satisfies the standard Drude formula and the electric transport is coherent for various correction parameter. While for stronger momentum dissipation, the modified Drude formula is applied and we observe a crossover from coherent to incoherent phase. Moreover, the Born–Infeld correction amplifies the incoherent behavior. Finally, we study the non-linear conductivity in probe limit and compare our results with those observed in (i)DBI model.

1 Introduction
The gauge-gravity duality [1,2,3] provides a new avenue to study strongly coupled systems, which is difficult to process in the traditional perturbation theory. As an implement of this holographic application, transport phenomenon attracts lots of concentration by studying the electric-thermo linear response via gauge-gravity duality. In the study, the introduction of momentum relaxation is required to describe more real condensed matter systems, such that finite DC transport coefficients can be realized. In order to include momentum relaxation in the dual theory, several ways are proposed in the bulk gravitational sectors.
A simple mechanism to introduce the momentum dissipation is in the massive gravity framework. In this mechanism, the momentum dissipation in the dual boundary field theory is implemented by breaking the diffeomorphism invariance in the bulk [4]. It inspired remarkable progress in holographic studies with momentum relaxation in massive gravity [5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18].
Another mechanism is to introduce a spatial-dependent source, which breaks the Ward identity and the momentum is not conserved in the dual boundary theory. An obvious way is the so called scalar lattice or ionic lattice structure, which is implemented by a periodic scalar source or chemical potential [19,20,21]. Also, we can obtain the boundary spontaneous modulation profiles in some particular gravitational models, which break the translational symmetry and induce the charge, spin or pair density waves [22,23,24,25,26]. These ways involve solving partial differential equations (PDEs) in the bulk. Another important way is to break the translation symmetry but hold the homogeneity of the background geometry. Comparing with the scalar lattice or ionic lattice structure, the advantage of this way is that we only need to solve ordinary differential equations (ODEs) in the bulk. Outstanding examples of this include holographic Q-lattices [27,28,29,30], helical lattices [31] and axion model [32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42]. Holographic Q-lattice model breaks the translational invariance via the global phase of the complex scalar field. Holographic helical lattice model possesses the non-Abelian Bianchi VII\(_0\) symmetry, where the translational symmetry is broken in one space direction but holds in the other two space directions. The translational symmetry is broken in holographic axion model by a pair of spatial-dependent scalar fields, which are introduced to source the breaking of Ward identity. In addition, by turning on a higher-derivative interaction term between the U(1) gauge field and the scalar field, we can also obtain a spatially dependent profile of the scalar field generated spontaneously, which leads to the breaking of the Ward identity and the momentum dissipation in the dual boundary field theory [43, 44].
On the other hand, many non-linear electrodynamics (NLED) has been proposed in the bulk theory instead of the Standard Maxwell (SM) theory due to the two aspects. One is that the SM theory face some problems, for instances, infinite self-energy of point-like charges, vacuum polarization in quantum electrodynamics and low-energy limit of heterotic string theory [45,46,47]. The other is as pointed out in [48] that in higher dimensions, the action for Maxwell field does not have the conformal symmetry. Among the NLED theory, the pioneering non-linear generalization of the Maxwell theory was proposed in [49] with the form
which is natural in string theory [50]. Related holographic study with the Born–Infeld (BI) correction on the Maxwell field can been seen in [51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62] and therein, in which the correction introduces interesting properties.Footnote 1
In this paper, we will study the Einstein-axions theory with Born–Infeld Maxwell field, i.e., the Einstein-Born–Infeld-axions theory. We first construct the black brane solution by solving the equations of motion in the theory. Then we analytically compute the DC transport coefficients in the dual theory and we discuss the influence from Born–Infeld parameter. Also, we numerically study the AC electric conductivity and analyze its low frequency behavior via (modified) Drude formula. Finally, we analyze the non-linear current-voltage behavior with BI correction in probe limit.
2 Einstein–Born–Infeld-axions theory
Since the Born–Infeld Anti de-Sitter (BI-AdS) geometry and its extensions have been explored in detail in [55, 69,70,71,72,73] and references therein, here, we only give a brief review on the BI-AdS geometry related with our present study.
The action in Einstein–Born–Infeld-axions theory we consider is
where \(\mathcal {L}_{BI}\) is defined in (1) and \(\phi _I\) is the massless axion fields. When \(\gamma \rightarrow 0\), we have \(\mathcal {L}_{BI}=-\frac{1}{4}F^2\), which is the action for the standard Maxwell theory, whereas in the limit of \(\gamma \rightarrow \infty \), \(\mathcal {L}_{BI}=0\), then our theory (2) reduces to Einstein-axions one.
The equations of motion can be straightforward derived from the action (2) as follows
where
The model (2) supports an AdS\(_4\) solution with AdS radius L, which shall be set \(L=1\) in what follows. We are interested in the homogeneous and isotropic charged black brane solution with spatial linear dependent scalar field. Then we set the fields as
where i denotes the 2 spatial \(x^i\) directions, I is an internal index that labels the 2 scalar fields and \(\alpha _{Ii}\) are real arbitrary constants. Notice that in the above ansatz, we work in the coordinate system in which \(u\rightarrow 0\) is the UV boundary and \(u=1\) denotes the location of horizon. The equations of motion (3), (4) and (5) give
where
is the chemical potential of the system and \(\mu _{BI}=\mu \) as \(\gamma \rightarrow 0\). M is determined by \(f(u=1)=0\) at the horizon as
The Hawking temperature of the black brane is
This black brane solution is specified by the two dimensionless parameters \(\hat{T}=\frac{T}{\mu _{BI}}\) and \(\hat{\beta }=\frac{\beta }{\mu _{BI}}\), in which the temperature can be reexpressed as
Now, we have obtained an analytical black brane solution in the framework of Einstein–Born–Infeld-axions theory. Notice that when \(\gamma \rightarrow 0\), the non-linear action for Maxwell field (1) can be expanded into the hand-given form Eq. (2.9) with tiny \(\Theta \) in [68]. And they discuss the case \(\Theta >0\) (corresponding to \(\gamma <0\) here) to address the insulating phase. But when \(\gamma <0\), there is a value of \(\gamma \), below which the black brane solution becomes complex. In this paper, we shall mainly focus on the holographic properties of all DC transport coefficients and AC electric conductivity at low frequency region. So we only consider \(\gamma >0\) unless we specially point out.
3 Electric, thermal and thermoelectric DC conductivity
In this section, we will calculate the DC conductivity including electric, thermal and thermoelectric conductivity via the technics proposed in [28, 74, 75]. To this end, we consider the following consistent perturbations at the linear level
According to [74], one defines two radial conserved quantities whose values at the boundary (\(u\rightarrow 0\)) are related respectively to the charge and heat response currents in the dual field,
where \(k^\mu =\partial ^t\) is the Killing vector. In terms of the background ansatz Eq. (8) and the perturbation Eq. (15), the two conserved currents read explicitly as
We assume the special forms of \(E_p(u)=-E_x+\zeta A_t(u), H(u)=-\zeta f(u)\) where the constants \(E_x\) and \(\zeta \) parametrize the sources for the electric current and heat current, respectively. Then, the related terms with respect to the time t can be canceled and the conserved currents become
In the above expression, we have defined the charge density \(Q_{\text {BI}}\) as
which is the conserved electric charge density.
Next, we shall evaluate the DC conductivities by the following expressions [74]
Since \(\mathcal {J}\) and \(\mathcal {J}^Q\) are both conserved quantities along u direction, we can evaluate the above expressions at horizon. To achieve this goal, we analyze the behaviors of the perturbative quantities at the horizon. First, it is easy to obtain the following express from Einstein equation
Further, we have
Note that the above equations including Eqs. (22) and (23) have taken value at the horizon, i.e., \(u=1\). And then we can evaluate the currents at the horizon, which give
Thus the conductivities computed from Eq. (21) can be expressed as
Also, we are interested in the thermal conductivity at zero electric current, which is defined as
which is more readily measurable than \(\bar{\kappa }\). Subseqently, it can be explicitly evaluated as
When \(\gamma \rightarrow 0\), all the transport coefficients are coincide with those in Einstein–Maxwell-axions theory studied in [74].
We summarize the main characteristics of the DC conductivities,
-
The electric DC conductivity \(\sigma _{DC}\) is temperature dependent for the fixed \(\hat{\beta }\) (Fig. 1). It is the key difference comparing with that in 4 dimensional RN-AdS black brane, in which the DC conductivity is the temperature independence.
-
At \(\hat{T}=0\), \(\sigma _{DC}\) is a positive constant (Fig. 1), which implies that the dual system is an metal. While \(\bar{\kappa }=0\) for \(\hat{T}=0\) (Fig. 3) as we expect because for \(\hat{T}\rightarrow 0\), we have \(\kappa (\hat{T})\sim \hat{T}\rightarrow 0\). It comes just from the scalings on the near horizon geometry.
-
For the fixed finite temperature \(\hat{T}\), with the increase of \(\gamma \), \(\sigma _{DC}\), \(\alpha _{DC}/\bar{\alpha }_{DC}\) and \(\kappa _{DC}\) increase (Figs. 1, 2 and 4), but \(\bar{\kappa }_{DC}\) decreases (Fig. 3).
Another quantities of interest are the Lorentz ratios, which are the ratios of thermal conductivity to electric conductivity
Obviously, L is not a constant and so the Wiedemann–Franz law that L is a constant for Fermi liquid [76] is violated, which has been revealed in [18, 33, 74] and indicates that our dual system involves strong interactions. Similarly with that in holographic Q-lattice model or linear axions model with standard Maxwell theory studied in [74], as \(\hat{\beta }\rightarrow 0\), \(\bar{L}\) and \(\kappa \) approach the constants. It is interesting to notice that in this case, i.e., \(\hat{\beta }\rightarrow 0\), \(\bar{L}\) is independent of the BI parameter \(\gamma \) but \(\kappa \) depends on it, while L vanishes and \(\bar{\kappa }\) diverges in this limit which is similar to that observed in [74]. In addition, the bound \(\bar{L}\le \frac{s^2}{Q}\) with s being the entropy density of the black brane proposed in [74] holds in our model.
4 Optical electric conductivity
In this section, we turn to study the AC electric conductivity by turning on the following consistent frequency dependent perturbations
Thus, the linearized equations of motion around the background Eq. (8) can be derived in momentum space as
According to AdS/CFT dictionary, we can numerically solve the above equations and read off the AC conductivity by using the expression
We will explore the AC electric conductivity from non-linear BI electrodynamics with momentum dissipation. We shall fix the temperature \(\hat{T}\) to study the effects of \(\hat{\beta }\) and \(\gamma \). Figure 5 exhibits the electric conductivity as the function of the frequency \(\hat{\omega }\) for different \(\hat{\beta }\) and \(\gamma \). Similarly with the standard Maxwell theory, for the fixed \(\gamma \), with the increase of \(\hat{\beta }\), the Drude-like peak gradually reduces and a transition from coherent phase to incoherent phase happens. For the fixed \(\hat{\beta }\), the peak seems to augment when \(\gamma \) increases. But the quantitative analysis later indicates that although with the increase of \(\gamma \) the peak augments, the degree of deviation from the Drude one becomes grave. Note that as a quick check on the consistency of our numerics, we denote the DC electric conductivity analytically calculated by Eq. (25) (red points) in Fig. 5, which match very well with the numerical results.
Next we discuss the coherent and incoherent behavior of our present model by quantitatively exploring the low frequency behavior of the AC conductivity. It is well known that for the standard Maxwell theory, when the momentum dissipation is weak, i.e. \(\hat{\beta }\ll 1\), the conductivity at low frequency can be described by the standard Drude formula,
where K is a constant and \(\Gamma \) the momentum relaxation rate. It is the coherent transport. With the increase of \(\hat{\beta }\), there is a crossover from coherent to incoherent phase, which can be depicted by the following modified Drude formula
The above formula can be obtained in relativistic conformal hydrodynamics [77] and \(\sigma _Q\) is the intrinsic conductivity of the hydrodynamic state, characterizing the incoherent contribution. In holographic framework, this formula has also been widely applied to study the coherent and incoherent behavior, for example, see [30, 33, 37].
Here, we shall study the low frequency conductivity behavior by using these two formulas and intend to give some quantitative discussions and insights into it.
Figure 6 shows the electric conductivity \(\sigma (\hat{\omega })\) for weak momentum dissipation (\(\hat{\beta }=0.25\)). It can fitted very well by the standard Drude formula (38) and we conclude that when the momentum dissipation is weak, the electric transport from BI-axions model is coherent for different BI coupling parameter \(\gamma \). Quantitatively, the momentum relaxation rate \(\Gamma \) decreases with the increase of \(\gamma \) (see Table 1). When \(\hat{\beta }=0.5\), we need resort to the modified Drude formula (39) to fit the numerical data. The results are shown in the above plots in Fig. 7, which is fitted very well. It indicates a crossover from coherent to incoherent phase begins to appear around \(\hat{\beta }\simeq 0.5\). Similarly with the weakly momentum dissipation case, the momentum relaxation rate \(\Gamma \) also decreases with the increase of \(\gamma \) in the crossover region (see Table 2). But we note that although the peak in \(Re(\sigma )\) enhances, the \(\sigma _Q\), the quantity characterizing the incoherent degree, increases with the increase of \(\gamma \), which indicates that the BI coupling amplifies the incoherent behavior. With the further increase of \(\hat{\beta }\), the incoherent behavior becomes stronger (see the plots below in Fig. 7 and Table 3).
Further, we compare the results in the standard linear axions theory [5, 32] to those of the present study. First, we analyze \(\Delta \Gamma (\gamma )\equiv \Gamma (\gamma =0)-\Gamma (\gamma )\) as the function of \(\gamma \) at \(\hat{T}=10^{-3}\) (Fig. 8). As expected, the difference becomes large with the increase of \(\gamma \) and the change of \(\Delta \Gamma (\gamma )\) is non-linear. Then, we study \(\Delta \Gamma \) as the function of the temperature \(\hat{T}\) for sample \(\gamma \) and \(\hat{\beta }\) (Fig. 9). The difference \(\Delta \Gamma \) is suppressed with the increase of the temperature. In addition, \(\Delta \Gamma \) becomes negative when the temperature goes beyond certain value, which means that in this case, \(\Gamma (\gamma )>\Gamma (\gamma =0)\). However, we would like to point out that with the increase of the temperature, the fitting of conductivity by Eq. (39) becomes ill. Therefore, we only focus the cases at low temperature.
Before closing this section, we shall present some comments on the conductivity in nonlinear Maxwell theory. As addressed in [78,79,80,81,82,83,84], the nonlinear Maxwell theory, including DBI deformation and the coupling between Weyl tensor and Maxwell term, produces a Drude-like peak contribution. This outcome is different from that in the axions models [5, 27,28,29,30, 32], in which the Drude peak attributes to the approximate conservation of momentum [85, 86].
To reveal the origin of the Drude-like peak from nonlinear Maxwell theory, the analytical derivation is needed. One way is to decouple the perturbation equations following the strategy of [85, 86], which can surely provide some novel insights and understanding into this question. Another way is to obtain a formula for the low frequency conductivity using matching method as done in the standard linear axions model [5]. However, we find the origin of the Drude-like peak of nonlinear Maxwell theory is difficult to reveal due to the complexity and we will leave these for future work. Note that the authors of [87] have attempted to explain the origin of the Drude-like peak from DBI deformation. Specially, they show that the momentum relaxation rate \(\Gamma \) is proportional to \(T^2\). However, we find in the present study, \(\Gamma \) does not follow the \(T^2\) law (see Fig. 10). We hope to further explore the law of the temperature dependence of \(\Gamma \) in the BI model at finite charge density in near future.
5 Non-linear electric conductivity in probe limit
As is discussed in [68], the usual way to study non-linear conductivity is to show the non-linear current–voltage diagram, from which we may see the non-linear behavior of the electric conductivity. To get analytical control, we will work in the probe limit, i.e., we ignore the mixture with the metric perturbation and keep the non-linear self -couplings of the Maxwell field as done in the references [88, 89].
We obtained in previous sections that \(\sigma _{DC}\) is constant for fixed bulk parameters, that is to say, the DC conductivity is linear. Here we shall discuss the non-linear DC case via the steps in [68]. Consider the gauge field as \(A=A_t(u)dt+(E_xt +a_x(u))dx\), the Maxwell equations with the same form as Eq. (8) give us
where \(\dot{\mathcal {L}_{BI}}\) denotes the derivative to the field strength \(I=-F^2/2\) and prime denotes the derivative to the radius u . \(\mathcal {L}_{BI}\) has been defined in Eq. (1) while the integration constants \(\rho \) and \(J_x\) are interpreted as charge density and charge current. Further requiring the field strength
is regular at the horizon, we obtain the general current–voltage relation
The current- voltage behavior from Eq. (42) is shown in Fig. 11. \(\gamma =0\) corresponds to the standard Maxwell theory, so that the current–voltage relation is linear and means \(J_x=E_x\) as we expect. When \(\gamma \ne 0\), the non-linear behavior is observed. For \(\gamma > 0\), the curve is above the linear case and \(dJ_x/dE_x\) is stronger than 1 as that happened in DBI model [68], however, it is enhanced as the applied field \(E_x\) increases which is different from that in DBI model. For \(\gamma <0\), the non-linear \(dJ_x/dE_x\) is always lower than 1. As the applied field increases, it approaches to be vanished, but this will not happen because backreacion should be involved when \(E_x\) is very large . The unstable case \(dJ_x/dE_x<0\) shown in iDBI model is not observed in our model. We notice that when we continue to lower \(\gamma \), the current become complex, this deserves further study.
6 Conclusions
In this paper, we introduced the Maxwell field with Born–Infeld correction into the Einstein-axions theory and studied a new charged BI-AdS black hole. Then we analytically calculated various DC transport coefficients of the dual boundary theory. We found that the DC electric conductivity depends on the temperature of the boundary theory, which is a novel property comparing to that in RN-AdS black hole. At zero temperature, The DC electric conductivity are positive while the thermal conductivity vanishes as we expect. With the increase of Born–Infeld parameter, the electric conductivity, electric-thermo conductivity and thermal conductivity at zero increases at finite fixed temperature.
We also studied the AC electric conductivity of the theory. When the momentum dissipation is weak, the low frequency AC conductivity behaves as the standard Drude formula and the electric transport is coherent for various correction parameter. When the momentum dissipation is stronger, the modified Drude formula is applied and a crossover from coherent to incoherent phase was observed. Also, we found that the Born–Infeld correction makes the incoherent behavior more explicit. We notice that here we only numerically compute the AC electric conductivity dual to its simply. It would be very interesting to further study the AC thermal and electric-thermo conductivity which are related with boundary data of both Maxwell perturbation and gravitational perturbation [15]. We hope to show the results elsewhere soon.
Finally, we analyze the non-linear current–voltage behavior with BI correction in probe limit. The curve with \(\gamma > 0\) is above the linear case and \(dJ_x/dE_x\) is always bigger than 1. Different from that happened in DBI model [68], the slope is enhanced as \(E_x\) increases. For \(\gamma <0\), the non-linear \(dJ_x/dE_x\) is always lower than 1 and it tends to be zero as \(E_x\) go to infinity in which case the backreaction should be considered. For more negative \(\gamma \), the current become complex and further study is called for.
In future, there are many interesting questions deserving further exploration. First of all, we can study the holographic anomalous transport from BI electrodynamics as [90, 91]. In [92, 93], they study the thermal transport and quantum chaos in the EMDA theory with a small Weyl coupling term. In particular, in [92], they find that the Weyl coupling correct the thermal diffusion constant and butterfly velocity in different ways, hence resulting in a modified relation between the two at IR fixed points. It is interesting to further explore this relation in present of BI correction. We shall come back these topics in near future.
Notes
More forms for non-linear Maxwell theory, such as power Maxwell theory, logarithmic Maxwell theory were also proposed in [48, 63, 64]. Also, the magnetotransport in holographic DBI (BI) model has been studied in [65]. In particular, in [66], they find that the in-plane magneto-resistivity exhibits the interesting scaling behavior that is compatible to that observed recently in experiments on \(BaFe_2(As_{1-x}P_x)_2\) [67].
