Eling-Oz Formula for Exotic Hairy Black Holes

Abstract

We checked Eling-Oz formula [1] for the bulk viscosity of the holographic fluid dual to the exotic black holes [2]. Initially, Eling and Oz argued that the formula is valid in the high temperature and adiabatic limits. In [3] the validity of the formula for =2* plasma and cascading gauge theory was pushed forward for arbitrary temperatures. We successfully verified the formula with the computations of the bulk viscosity [4,5] for a wide range of the temperatures. Moreover, it correctly reproduces the critical behavior in the vicinity of the critical point, where the bulk-to-shear viscosity diverges.
