Continuum Fractons: Quantization and the Few Body Problem
Ylias Sadki, Abhishodh Prakash, S. L. Sondhi
We formulate a continuum quantum mechanics for non-relativistic, dipole-conserving fractons. Imposing symmetries and locality results in novel phenomena absent in ordinary quantum…

Phase space fractons
Ylias Sadki, Abhishodh Prakash, S. L. Sondhi +1
Perhaps the simplest approach to constructing models with sub-dimensional particles or fractons is to require the conservation of dipole or higher multipole moments. We generalize…

Classical Fractons: Local chaos, global broken ergodicity and an arrow of time
Aryaman Babbar, Ylias Sadki, Abhishodh Prakash +1
We report new results on classical nonrelativistic dipole conserving particles - fractons. These have been previously shown to exhibit "Machian" dynamics where the motion of one pa…
