Abstract
In this work a holographic model with the charge current dual to a general non-linear electrodynamics (NLED) is discussed in the framework of massive gravity. Massive graviton can break the diffeomorphism invariance in the bulk and generates momentum dissipation in the dual boundary theory. The expression of DC conductivities in a finite magnetic field are obtained, with the backreaction of NLED field on the background geometry. General transport properties in various limits are presented, and then we turn to the three of specific NLED models: the conventional Maxwell electrodynamics, the Maxwell-Chern-Simons electrodynamics, and the Born-Infeld electrodynamics, to study the parameter-dependence of in-plane resistivities. Two mechanisms leading to the Mott-insulating behaviors and negative magneto-resistivities are revealed at zero temperature, and the role played by the massive gravity coupling parameters are discussed.
