Holographic entanglement entropy in metal/superconductor phase transition with Born-Infeld electrodynamics

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We investigate the holographic entanglement entropy in the metal/superconductor phase transition for the Born-Infeld electrodynamics with full backreaction and note that the entropy is a good probe to study the properties of the phase transition. For the operator <O−><\mathcal{O}_{-}>, we find that the entanglement entropy decreases (or increases) with the increase of the Born-Infeld parameter bb in the metal (or superconducting) phase. For the operator <O+><\mathcal{O}_{+}>, we observe that, with the increase of the Born-Infeld parameter, the entanglement entropy in the metal phase decreases monotonously but the entropy in the superconducting phase first increases and forms a peak at some threshold bTb_{T}, then decreases continuously. Moreover, the value of bTb_{T} becomes smaller as the width of the subsystem AA decreases.
