Regular Seminar Andrea Amoretti (Cambridge)
at: 14:00 room H503 abstract: | Gauge/gravity duality can be used to study the transport properties of strongly interacting systems with no quasi-particles. I will give an overview of some holographic toy models of states like this, in which momentum is not conserved and thus the transport of energy and charge is non-trivial. Specifically I will discuss the thermoelectric transport properties of these toy models and their possible relations to the phenomenology of the strange metals. |
