Excited states of holographic superconductors from massive gravity

In this paper, we generalize the study of the model of holographic superconductors in excited states to the framework of massive gravity at the probe limit. By taking into account the effect of a massive graviton, we numerically present a family of solutions for holographic superconductors in excited states and find that the critical temperatures can be higher due to the effect of the massive graviton, in comparison with the superconductor in Einstein gravity. We also investigate the condensates and conductivities in the ground state and the excited states by studying various parameters that determine the framework of gravity background.

In this paper, we generalize the study of holographic superconductors in excited states to the framework of massive gravity at the probe limit. We numerically present a family of solutions for holographic superconductors in excited states, taking into account the effect of a massive graviton. The critical temperatures of these solutions can be higher due to the effect of the massive graviton compared to superconductors in Einstein gravity. We also investigate the condensates and conductivities in the ground state and excited states by studying various parameters determining the gravity background framework.
