We introduce a quantum dimer model on the kagome lattice with kinetic terms allowing from 3 to 6 dimers to resonate around hexagons. Unlike models studied previously, the different resonance loops appears with different signs (given by the…

Doping a Mott-insulating $\mathbb{Z}_2$ spin liquid can lead to a fractionalized Fermi liquid (FL*). Such a phase has several favorable features that make it a candidate for the pseudogap metal for the underdoped cuprates. We focus on a…

The quantum phase transitions of metals have been extensively studied in the rare-earth "heavy electron" materials, the cuprates, and related compounds. The Fermi surface of the metal often has different shapes in the states well away from…
We consider a magnetic impurity coupled to both fermionic quasiparticles with a pseudogap density of states and bosonic spin fluctuations. Using renormalization group and large-N calculations we investigate the phase diagram of the…
Non-Fermi liquid behavior and pseudogap formation are among the most well-known examples of exotic spectral features observed in several strongly correlated materials such as the hole-doped cuprates, nickelates, iridates, ruthenates,…
