Description
The AdS/CFT correspondence is a very powerful tool for studying strongly coupled CFTs at finite temperature and charge density and/or magnetic field, commonly found in condensed matter physics. Two of the main focus in this direction is to get a better understanding of superconductivity and spatially modulated phases in the holographic setup. In this talk, I will discuss how the two merge to give rise to spatially modulated superconducting p-wave states.
