We present a string theory construction of a gravity dual of a spatially modulated phase. In our earlier work, we showed that the Chern-Simons term in the 5-dimensional Maxwell theory destabilizes the Reissner-Nordstrom black holes in anti-de Sitter space if the Chern-Simons coupling is sufficiently high. In this paper, we show that a similar instability is realized on the worldvolume of 8-branes in the Sakai-Sugimoto model in the quark-gluon plasma phase. We also construct and analyze a non-linear solution describing the end-point of the transition. Our result suggests a new spatially modulated phase in quark-gluon plasma when the baryon density is above 0.8 N_f fm^{-3} at temperature 150 MeV.

    hep-th 2026-07 accept novelty 6.5 of 10

    General Tachyon-Chern-Simons forms are built via Quillen superconnections for arbitrary tachyon matrices, and baryon number equals the superconnection instanton number even with massive, flavor-dependent quarks.

  2. Dynamical instability and transport peak of chiral matter from holography

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In a holographic model of chiral matter, thermodynamically unstable states show growing long-wavelength perturbations, and the scalar spectrum displays a diffusion-to-propagating transition with a low-frequency transp...

  3. Towards holographic color superconductivity in QCD

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the V-QCD holographic model, quark pairing transitions can occur with critical temperatures up to about 30 MeV, but spatially modulated instabilities grow faster and may dominate.
