Following a procedure recently utilized by Accioly et al. to obtain the D-dimensional interparticle potential energy for electromagnetic models in the nonrelativistic limit, and relaxing the condition assumed by the authors concerning the conservation of the external current, the prescription found out by them is generalized so that dual models can also be contemplated. Specific models in which the interaction is mediated by a spin-0 particle described first by a vector field and then by a higher-derivative vector field, are analyzed. Systems mediated by spin-1 particles described, respectively, by symmetric rank-2 tensors, symmetric rank-2 tensors augmented by higher derivatives and antisymmetric rank-2 tensors, are considered as well.

We consider the canonical quantization of a generalized two-dimensional massive fermion theory containing higher odd-order derivatives. The requirements of Lorentz invariance, hermiticity of the Hamiltonian and absence of tachyon excitations suffice to fix the mass term, which contains a derivative coupling. We show that the basic quantum excitations of a higher-derivative theory of order 2N+1 consist of a physical usual massive fermion, quantized with positive metric, plus 2N unphysical massless fermions, quantized with opposite metrics. The positive-metric Hilbert subspace, which is isomorphic to the space of states of a massive free fermion theory, is selected by a subsidiary-like condition. Employing the standard bosonization scheme, the equivalent boson theory is derived. The results obtained are used as a guideline to discuss the solution of a theory including a current–current interaction.

Abstract In this paper, we construct a novel holographic superconductor from higher derivative (HD) gravity involving a coupling between the complex scalar field and the Weyl tensor. This HD coupling term provides a near horizon effective mass squared, which can violates IR Breitenlohner–Freedman (BF) bound by tuning the HD coupling and induces the instability of black brane such that the superconducting phase transition happens. We also study the properties of the condensation and the conductivity in the probe limit. We find that a wider extension of the superconducting energy gap ranging from 4.6 to 10.5 may provide a novel platform to model and interpret the phenomena in the real materials of high temperature superconductor.
