Holographic duality in condensed matter physics /Jan Zaanen (Universiteit Leiden, the Netherlands), Yan Liu (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Spain), Ya-Wen Sun (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Spain), Koenraad Schalm (Universiteit Leiden). - 1 online resource (xi, 573 pages) :digital, PDF file(s).

Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 01 Feb 2016).

Condensed matter: the charted territory -- Condensed matter: the challenges -- Large N field theories for holography and condensed matter -- The AdS/CFT correspondence as computational device: the dictionary -- Finite temperature magic: black holes and holographic thermodynamics -- Holographic hydrodynamics -- Finite density: the Reissner-Nordstrom black hole and strange metals -- Holographic photoemission and the RN metal: the fermions as probes -- Holographic superconductivity -- Holographic Fermi liquids -- Breaking translational invariance -- AdS/CMT from the top down -- Outlook: holography and quantum matter.

A pioneering treatise presenting how the new mathematical techniques of holographic duality unify seemingly unrelated fields of physics. This innovative development morphs quantum field theory, general relativity and the renormalisation group into a single computational framework and this book is the first to bring together a wide range of research in this rapidly developing field. Set within the context of condensed matter physics and using boxes highlighting the specific techniques required, it examines the holographic description of thermal properties of matter, Fermi liquids and superconductors, and hitherto unknown forms of macroscopically entangled quantum matter in terms of general relativity, stars and black holes. Showing that holographic duality can succeed where classic mathematical approaches fail, this text provides a thorough overview of this major breakthrough at the heart of modern physics. The inclusion of extensive introductory material using non-technical language and online Mathematica notebooks ensures the appeal to students and researchers alike.
