Van der Waals phase transition in the framework of holography
Phase structure of the quintessence Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m-AdS black hole is
probed with the nonlocal observables such as holographic entanglement entropy
and two point correlation function. Our result shows that, as the case of the
thermal entropy, both the observables exhibit the similar Van der Waals-like
phase transition. To reinforce the conclusion, we further check the equal area
law for the first order phase transition and critical exponent of the heat
capacity for the second order phase transition. We also discuss the effect of
the state parameter on the phase structure of the nonlocal observables.Comment: 16 pages, 6 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with
