Abstract

We extend a bottom-up holographic model, which has been used in studying the color superconductivity in QCD, to the imaginary chemical potential (μI) region, and the phase diagram is studied on the μI-temperature (T) plane. The analysis is performed for the case of the probe approximation and for the background, where the backreaction from the flavor fermions is taken into account. For both cases, we could find the expected Roberge-Weiss (RW) transitions. In the case of the backreacted solution, a bound of the color number Nc is found to produce the RW periodicity. It is given as Nc1.2. Furthermore, we could assure the validity of this extended model by comparing our result with that of the lattice QCD near μI=0.
