    Hawking radiation from the cosmological horizon in a FRW universe

    Full text link
    It is well known that there is a Hawking radiation from the cosmological horizon of the de-sitter spacetime, and the de-sitter spacetime can be a special case of a FRW universe. Therefore, there may be a corresponding Hawking radiation in a FRW universe. Indeed, there have been several clues showing that there is a Hawking radiation from the apparent horizon of a FRW universe. In our paper, however, we find that the Hawking radiation may come from the cosmological horizon. Moreover, we also find that the Hawking radiation from the apparent horizon of a FRW universe in some previous works can be a special case in our result, and the condition is that the variation rate of cosmological horizon r.H\overset{.}{r}_{H} is zero. Note that, this condition is also consistent with the underlying integrable condition in these works from the apparent horizon.Comment: V3: 12 pages, no figure, typos corrected, new references added, version shorted and accepted by PL

    Gravity/Fluid Correspondence and Its Application on Bulk Gravity with U(1)U(1) Gauge Field

    As the long wavelength limit of the AdS/CFT correspondence, the gravity/fluid correspondence has been shown to be a useful tool for extracting properties of the fluid on the boundary dual to the gravity in the bulk. In this paper, after briefly reviewing the algorithm of gravity/fluid correspondence, we discuss the results of its application on bulk gravity with a U(1)U(1) gauge field. In the presence of a U(1)U(1) gauge field, the dual fluid possesses more interesting properties such as its charge current. Furthermore, an external field AμextA_\mu^{ext} could affect the charge current, and the U(1)U(1) Chern-Simons term also reinduces extra structures to the dual current giving anomalous transport coefficients.Comment: 14 pages, no figure, version publishe

    Quantum Phase Liquids-Fermionic Superfluid without Phase Coherence

    Full text link
    We investigate the two dimensional generalized attractive Hubbard model in a bipartite lattice, and and a "quantum phase liquid" phase, in which the fermions are paired but don't have phase coherence at zero temperature, in analogy to quantum spin liquid phase. Then, two types of topological quantum phase liquids with a small external magnetic field-Z2 quantum phase liquids and chiral quantum phase liquids-are discussed.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figure

    Bulk Viscosity of dual Fluid at Finite Cutoff Surface via Gravity/Fluid correspondence in Einstein-Maxwell Gravity

    Get PDF
    Based on the previous paper arXiv:1207.5309, we investigate the possibility to find out the bulk viscosity of dual fluid at the finite cutoff surface via gravity/fluid correspondence in Einstein-Maxwell gravity. We find that if we adopt new conditions to fix the undetermined parameters contained in the stress tensor and charged current of the dual fluid, two new terms appear in the stress tensor of the dual fluid. One new term is related to the bulk viscosity term, while the other can be related to the perturbation of energy density. In addition, since the parameters contained in the charged current are the same, the charged current is not changed.Comment: 15 pages, no figure, typos corrected, new references and comments added, version accepted by PL
