Curving the space by non-Hermiticity
Chenwei Lv, Ren Zhang, Zhengzheng Zhai +1
Quantum systems are often classified into Hermitian and non-Hermitian ones. Extraordinary non-Hermitian phenomena, ranging from the non-Hermitian skin effect to the supersensitivit…
Fractonic gauge theory of smectics
Zhengzheng Zhai, Leo Radzihovsky
Motivated by striped correlated quantum matter, and the recently developed duality between elasticity of a two-dimensional (2D) crystal and a gauge theory, we derive a dual coupled…
Crystal-to-Fracton Tensor Gauge Theory Dualities
Michael Pretko, Zhengzheng Zhai, Leo Radzihovsky
We demonstrate several explicit duality mappings between elasticity of two-dimensional crystals and fracton tensor gauge theories, expanding on recent works by two of the present a…
Two-dimensional melting via sine-Gordon duality
Zhengzheng Zhai, Leo Radzihovsky
Motivated by the recently developed duality between elasticity of a crystal and a symmetric tensor gauge theory by Pretko and Radzihovsky, we explore its classical analog, that is…
