Holographic conformal order with higher derivatives

Abstract

Conformal order are isotropic and translationary invariant thermal states of a conformal theory with nonzero expectation value of certain operators. While ubiquitous in bottom-up models of holographic CFTs, conformal order states are unstable in theories dual to bulk two-derivative gravity. We explore conformal order in strongly coupled theories with gravitational holographic duals involving higher derivative corrections.
