We put forward an alternative way to estimate the deconfinement temperature in bottom-up holographic models. The deconfinement in AdS/QCD is related to the Hawking-Page phase transition, in which the critical Hawking temperature is…
We calculate the continuum value of the deconfining temperature in units of the string tension for SU(4), SU(6) and SU(8) gauge theories, and we recalculate its value for SU(2) and SU(3). We find that the $N$-dependence for $2 \leq N \leq…
Based on an effective Lagrangian obtained from the holon-pair boson theory of Lee and Salk [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 64}, 052501 (2001)] for high $T_c$ cuprates, we explore physical states involved with quantum phase transitions around a critical…

In this paper we initiate the study of SSB in 3+1 dimensional rotating, charged, asymptotically AdS black holes. The theory living on their boundary, R x S^2, has the interpretation of a 2+1 dimensional rotating holographic superconductor.…
