Non-Fermi liquids: Field theory vs. holography

Speaker: Subir Sachdev, Harvard University

When: December 7, 2011 (Wed), 11:00AM to 12:00PM (add to my calendar)
Location: SCI 328

This event is part of the Condensed Matter Theory Seminar Series.

Abstract: 

I survey theories of metallic states of quantum matter.
Insights from analyses of strongly-coupled gauge theories
will be compared with those obtained by holographic  methods.
