Fractons from frustration in hole-doped antiferromagnets
John Sous, Michael Pretko
Recent theoretical research on tensor gauge theories led to the discovery of an exotic type of quasiparticles, dubbed fractons, that obey both charge and dipole conservation. Here…

Odd Fracton Theories, Proximate Orders, and Parton Constructions
Michael Pretko, S. A. Parameswaran, Michael Hermele
The Lieb-Schultz-Mattis (LSM) theorem implies that gapped phases of matter must satisfy non-trivial conditions on their low-energy properties when a combination of lattice translat…

Fracton Phases of Matter
Michael Pretko, Xie Chen, Yizhi You
Fractons are a new type of quasiparticle which are immobile in isolation, but can often move by forming bound states. Fractons are found in a variety of physical settings, such as…
