Baryon number current in holographic noncommutative QCD

We consider the noncommutative deformation of the finite temperature holographic QCD (Sakai–Sugimoto) model in external electric and magnetic field and evaluate the effect of the noncommutaivity on the properties of the conductor-insulator phase transition associated with a baryon number current. Although the noncommutative deformation of the gauge theory does not change the phase structure with respect to the baryon number current, the transition temperature $T_c$, the transition electric field $e_c$ and magnetic field $b_c$ in the conductor-insurator phase transition depend on the noncommutativity parameter $\theta$. Namely, the noncommutativity of space coordinates has an influence on the shape of the phase diagram for the conductor-insurator phase transition. On the other hand, the allowed range of the noncommutativity parameter can be restricted by the reality condition of the constants of motion.
