contents We consider a holographic Einstein-Maxwell model in five dimensions with pure gauge and mixed gauge-gravitational Chern-Simons terms to study anomaly-induced transport in the presence of explicit symmetry breaking. We include the full backreaction of the scalar field and gauge fields on the metric and compute the anomalous transport coefficients using Kubo formulae involving charge and energy current correlators. Our findings reveal that, in the presence of explicit symmetry breaking, anomaly-induced transport phenomena can extend beyond anomalous currents and affect the non-anomalous sector as well. The transport coefficients exhibit a clear dependence on the symmetry-breaking mass parameter, highlighting the interplay between quantum anomalies and explicit symmetry breaking in holographic systems.
