The one-dimensional Holstein model revisited
Sijia Zhao, Zhaoyu Han, Ilya Esterlis +1
We analyze the global ground-state (quantum) phase diagram of the one-dimensional Holstein model at half-filling as a function of the strength of the electron-phonon coupling (repr…
Prevailing charge order in overdoped cuprates beyond the superconducting dome
Qizhi Li, Hsiao-Yu Huang, Tianshuang Ren +14
The extremely overdoped cuprates are generally considered to be Fermi liquid metals without exotic orders, whereas the underdoped cuprates harbor intertwined states. Contrary to th…
Generating coherent phonon waves in narrow-band materials: a twisted bilayer graphene phaser
Iliya Esin, Ilya Esterlis, Eugene Demler +1
Twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) exhibits extremely low Fermi velocities for electrons, with the speed of sound surpassing the Fermi velocity. This regime enables the use of TBG for…
Large theory of critical Fermi surfaces II: conductivity
Haoyu Guo, Aavishkar A. Patel, Ilya Esterlis +1
A Fermi surface coupled to a scalar field can be described in a expansion by choosing the fermion-scalar Yukawa coupling to be random in the -dimensional flavor space, but…
Universal theory of strange metals from spatially random interactions
Aavishkar A. Patel, Haoyu Guo, Ilya Esterlis +1
We consider two-dimensional metals of fermions coupled to quantum critical scalars, the latter representing order parameters or emergent gauge fields. We show that at low temperatu…
