Let us consider only electrically charged solutions. Then the CS term does not affect the solutions.
The solution is just an ordinary AdS-Reissner-Nordström black hole.
However, if consider the fluctuations around the solution,the CS term plays an important role.

The dispersion relation is

This does not necessarily mean the system is unstable, but it does in the following momentum range:

Inhomogeneous condensation
The instability occurs at finite momenta.
The resulting condensation is inhomogeneous:the condensation is spatially modulated (and circularly polarized).
5d Maxwell theory + CS term + electric fieldis very interesting system.
Spontaneous breaking of translational and rotational symmetry.

What happens in the 5d SUGRA?The background spacetime is asymptotically AdS:
A slightly “tachyonic” mode is still stable:there is Breitenlohner-Freedman bound.
We need to check whether the effect of the CSterm exceeds the BF bound or not.
The U(1) gauge field couples with gravitons:
We need to diagonalize the possible fluctuations.
The background geometry is curved non-trivially.

Strategy• The electric field in the Reissner-Nordström black hole is maximum at the horizon and decreases towards the boundary.
Probably, the system is most unstable around the horizon since the “instability” was proportional to the electric field in 5d Maxell.
We take the near-horizon limit of the 5d extremal RN black hole.
AdS2×R3
Much simpler geometry than RN-BH.
The near-horizon analysis is at least a good starting point.
• The maximum electric field is realized in the extremal BH. (T=0, but SUSY is broken)

Result at the near horizon
(The SUSY is broken even at the extremal case.)
Einstein +Maxwell+CS theory near the horizon of the RN-BH becomes unstable if the CS coupling α is α> αc=0.2896…. while the 5d SUGRA has α=3-1/2/2=0.2887..which is barely outside the unstable region.

Full-geometry analysisThe near-horizon analysis provides a sufficient conditionfor instability but not the necessary condition.
We found that the numerical analysis on the full RN-BHgeometry yields the same critical value αc=0.2896….
Analysis on the full AdS-RN-BH geometry:
• consider normalizable modes ,• impose “in-going” boundary condition at the horizon,• see whether its amplitude decays or grows along time.
The behavior depends on k and α and T.

CommentAlthough αc is not modified in the full-geometry analysis,the momentum-range for instability is corrected.
The instability range goes until some upper limit of k like

Other geometriesWe have also analyzed the following cases at the near-horizon limit.
• 5d extremal AdS-RN-BH with the boundary geometry S3.• 3-charge solutions
As far as we have analyzed, the BF bound is alwaysbarely satisfied (within 0.4%) if we employ the CScoupling coming from type IIB super-gravity.
Are there any unknown reason?

CS coupling at arbitrary values Presence of CS term is quite general for gravity theories coming from superstring theory through various com-pactifications.
Cf. Holographic superconductor
Investigation of general nature of the gravity theory with Maxwell+CS is important, being motivated by the possible correspondence to yet to known CFT.
Let us go a little bit further to investigate the natureof Einstein+Maxwell+CS theory at arbitrary CS coupling.
![Page 25: Gravity Dual of Spatially Modulated Phase](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062222/56816679550346895dda19a0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
A possible phase transition
Then we have unstable RN-AdS BH’s at sufficientlylarge CS couplings.
αc is a function of the temperature.
We have a phase transition into a modulated phasewhen we cool down the temperature towards zero.
Suppose that the CS coupling is a parameterwhich we can choose phenomenologically.
In other words, let us start with 5d Einstein + Maxwell + CStheory with electric field.

Summary
• Einstein(Λ<0)+Maxwell+CS theory is an interesting theory, which has a potential possibility to be a gravity dual of phase transitions to inhomogeneous phases.
• 5d gravity theories reduced from type IIB SUGRA have a CS term.•The circularly-polarized modes of gauge fields in Einstein+Maxwell+CS theory with electric flux have non-standard dispersion relations.•If the CS interaction is strong enough, the circularly- polarized modes become tachyonic.• As far as we have analyzed, the gravity theories coming from SUGRA are barely stable although SUSY is broken.
