The Shear Viscosity in Anisotropic Phases

Jain, Sachin, Samanta, Rickmoy, Trivedi, Sandip P.

Understand

We construct anisotropic black brane solutions and analyse the behaviour of some of their metric perturbations.

These solutions correspond to field theory duals in which rotational symmetry is broken due an externally applied, spatially constant, force.
We find, in several examples, that when the anisotropy is sufficiently big compared to the temperature, some components of the viscosity tensor can become very small in units of the entropy density, parametrically violating the KSS bound.
We obtain an expression relating these components of the viscosity, in units of the entropy density, to a ratio of metric components at the horizon of the black brane.
