Zero temperature states of matter are holographically described by a spacetime with an asymptotic electric flux. This flux can be sourced either by explicit charged matter fields in the bulk, by an extremal black hole horizon, or by a…
We present a unified, global perspective on the magnetic properties of strongly disordered electronic systems, with special emphasis on the case where the ground state is metallic. We review the arguments for the instability of the…
We introduce and analyze a novel metallic phase of two-dimensional (2d) electrons, the Roton Fermi Liquid (RFL), which, in contrast to the Landau Fermi liquid, supports both gapless fermionic and bosonic quasiparticle excitations. The RFL…
Entanglement of spin and orbital Kondo effect is investigated on the basis of a Kondo-type exchange model with twofold orbital degeneracy. By using Wilson's numerical renormalization-group method, we examine dynamical and thermal properties…
We present a general model of disorder in Kondo alloys that, under certain conditions, leads to non-Fermi liquid behavior. The central underlying idea is the presence of a distribution of local Kondo temperature scales. If this distribution…
We describe ground states of correlated electron systems in which the electron fractionalizes into separate quasiparticles which carry its spin and its charge, and into real Majorana fermions which carry its Fermi statistics. Such parent…
We present two 2D lattice models with non-Fermi liquid metallic phases. We show that the low energy physics of these models is exactly described by a Fermi sea of fractionalized quasiparticles coupled to a fluctuating U(1) gauge field. In…

Recent experiments on CeCoIn5 -- a prototypical d-wave superconductor -- indicate that its normal state lies near an unconventional quantum critical point (QCP). One intriguing hypothesis is that quantum-critical fluctuations promote…
I present a pedagogical survey of a variety of quantum phases of the Hubbard model. The honeycomb lattice model has a conformal field theory connecting the semi-metal to the insulator with Neel order. States with fractionalized excitations…
Landau Fermi liquid theory, with its pivotal assertion that electrons in metals can be simply understood as independent particles with effective masses replacing the free electron mass, has been astonishingly successful. This is true…
A scaling consideration of the Kondo lattices is performed with account of singularities in the spin excitation spectral function. It is shown that a non-Fermi-liquid (NFL) behavior between two critical values of the bare $s-f$ coupling…
We consider the half-filled Hubbard model with a cut-off forbidding momenta close to the angles of the square shaped Fermi surface. By Renormalization Group methods we find a convergent expansion for the Schwinger function up to…
Despite the fact that the low energy behavior of the basic Kondo model cannot be studied perturbatively it was eventually shown by Wilson, Anderson, Nozieres and others to have a simple "local Fermi liquid theory" description. That is,…
We show a strong indication of the existence of a large Fermi surface in the one-dimensional Kondo lattice model. The characteristic wave vector of the model is found to be $k_F=(1+\rho )\pi /2$, $\rho $ being the density of the conduction…
An exotic fractionalized Fermi-liquid FL$^*$ theory of metallic systems, which combines resonant-valence-bond (RVB) state and the band of current carriers, is treated. An application of this theory to spin-liquid, antiferromagnetic and…
