Dynamical Condensation in a Holographic Superconductor Model with Anisotropy

Understand

We study dynamical condensation process in a holographic superconductor model with anisotropy.

• The time-dependent numerical solution is constructed for the Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory with complex scalar in asymptotic AdS spacetime.
• The introduction of dilaton field generates the anisotropy in boundary spatial directions.
• In analogy of isotropic case, we have two black hole solutions below certain critical temperature $T_c$, the anisotropic charged black hole with and without scalar hair, corresponding respectively to the supercooled normal phase and superconducting phase in the boundary theory.
