Description
The study of disorder, and in particular the phenomenon of
Anderson localization, in interacting many-body systems is a
challenging problem in condensed matter physics. By
introducing disorder in holographic realizations of
superconductivity we can get predictions from the
gauge/gravity duality on how strongly coupled
superconductors behave in the presence of impurities. It is
interesting to see the effect disorder may have on the
critical temperature of those systems, and, when studying
thin superconducting films, to consider the formation of
islands of superconductivity.
