Non-Hermitian Holography
Daniel Areán, Karl Landsteiner, Ignacio Salazar Landea
Quantum theory can be formulated with certain non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. An anti-linear involution, denoted by PT, is a symmetry of such Hamiltonians. In the PT-symmetric regime t…
Gapless and gapped holographic phonons
Andrea Amoretti, Daniel Areán, Blaise Goutéraux +1
We study a holographic model where translations are both spontaneously and explicitly broken, leading to the presence of (pseudo)-phonons in the spectrum. The weak explicit breakin…
Diffusion and universal relaxation of holographic phonons
Andrea Amoretti, Daniel Areán, Blaise Goutéraux +1
In phases where translations are spontaneously broken, new gapless degrees of freedom appear in the low energy spectrum (the phonons). At long wavelengths, they couple to small flu…
Universal relaxation in a holographic metallic density wave phase
Andrea Amoretti, Daniel Areán, Blaise Goutéraux +1
In this work, we uncover a universal relaxation mechanism of pinned density waves, combining Gauge/Gravity duality and effective field theory techniques. Upon breaking translations…
