报告摘要：The holographic axion models are a class of bottom-up models characterized by the presence of a set of shift symmetric scalar bulk fields whose profiles are taken to be linear in the spatial coordinates. They can implement the breaking of translational invariance of the dual field theory by retaining the homogeneity of the background geometry and allowing for controllable and fast computations. Therefore, they have very broad applications in the gauge/gravity duality.In this talk, I will present some new progress on these holographic models for modeling the elastic properties and collective excitations of solid systems at finite temperatures. Especially, I will show how these models can provide insights into the mechanical failure of solids under shear strains. In addition, I will also discuss the physical nature of the collective modes and propose an extension of these models by including additional sets of axions which can describe multilayer systems.
