Poles-zeros duality in semi-holographic Mott insulators

Thomas Kögel, Alessio Caddeo, Amelie Pitters +5

Inspired by the poles-zeros duality of Green's functions that appears in transitions into Mott-insulating phases in strongly correlated condensed matter systems, we propose a semi-…

Stringy T-duality on the lattice and the twisted Villain model

Coraline Bacq, Alessio Caddeo, Saskia Demulder +1

We address the question of whether dualities formulated in continuum field theory can be realised exactly at finite lattice spacing, rather than only emerging in the infrared. In t…

Fracton Gauge Theories in Curved Spacetimes

Evangelos Afxonidis, Alessio Caddeo, Carlos Hoyos +1

Fractonic matter with dipole symmetry can be coupled to a two-index symmetric tensor gauge field. In this work, we show that this symmetric tensor field, along with other related g…

On the stability of fracton gravity

Evangelos Afxonidis, Alessio Caddeo, Carlos Hoyos +1

We study the stability of fracton gravity, a variant of linearized gravity where the gauge symmetry is restricted to longitudinal diffeomorphisms. These transformations can be conn…

Spinodal slowing down and scaling in a holographic model

Alessio Caddeo, Oscar Henriksson, Carlos Hoyos +1

The dynamics of first-order phase transitions in strongly coupled systems are relevant in a variety of systems, from heavy ion collisions to the early universe. Holographic theorie…

Fracton gravity from spacetime dipole symmetry

Evangelos Afxonidis, Alessio Caddeo, Carlos Hoyos +1

Dipole charge conservation forces isolated charges to be immobile fractons. These couple naturally to spatial two-index symmetric tensor gauge fields that resemble a spatial metric…

Dipole symmetry breaking and fractonic Nambu-Goldstone mode

Evangelos Afxonidis, Alessio Caddeo, Carlos Hoyos +1

We introduce a family of quantum field theories for fields carrying monopole and dipole charges. In contrast to previous realizations, fields have quadratic two-derivative kinetic…

Emergent Dipole Gauge Fields and Fractons

Alessio Caddeo, Carlos Hoyos, Daniele Musso

We present a realization of fracton-elasticity duality purely formulated in terms of ordinary gauge fields, encompassing standard elasticity and incommensurate crystals as those de…

Comments on Holographic Level/Rank Dualities

Riccardo Argurio, Alessio Caddeo

We investigate a holographic realization in Type-IIB string theory of pure Chern-Simons theories, and focus on the level/rank dualities that they enjoy. The level/rank duality is e…

Bubble Wall Velocity at Strong Coupling

Francesco Bigazzi, Alessio Caddeo, Tommaso Canneti +1

Using the holographic correspondence as a tool, we determine the steady-state velocity of expanding vacuum bubbles nucleated within chiral finite temperature first-order phase tran…

Dark Holograms and Gravitational Waves

Francesco Bigazzi, Alessio Caddeo, Aldo L. Cotrone +1

Spectra of stochastic gravitational waves (GW) generated in cosmological first-order phase transitions are computed within strongly correlated theories with a dual holographic desc…

Fate of false vacua in holographic first-order phase transitions

Francesco Bigazzi, Alessio Caddeo, Aldo L. Cotrone +1

Using the holographic correspondence as a tool, we study the dynamics of first-order phase transitions in strongly coupled gauge theories at finite temperature. Considering an evol…

The Holographic QCD Axion

Francesco Bigazzi, Alessio Caddeo, Aldo L. Cotrone +2

A holographic model of QCD axion is presented. It describes a composite axion in the KSVZ class. Having a gravity dual, based on the Witten-Sakai-Sugimoto model, it is calculable i…
