摘要
We discuss new types of instabilities of D = 4 electrically charged AdS-Reissner-Nordstrom black branes that involve neutral pseudo-scalars. The instabilities spontaneously break translational invariance and are associated with the dual three-dimensional CFTs, at finite temperature and fixed chemical potential with respect to a global abelian symmetry, acquiring striped phases. We show that such instabilities are present for the infinite class of skew-whiffed AdS(4) x SE7 solutions of D = 11 supergravity, albeit at a lower temperature than the known superfluid instabilities.
