Schur Connections: Chord Counting, Line Operators, and Indices

Oscar Lewis, Mark Mezei, Matteo Sacchi +1

Recently, an intriguing correspondence was conjectured in arXiv:2409.11551 between Schur half-indices of pure 4d supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory with…

Nonlinear soft mode action for the large- SYK model

Marta Bucca, Márk Mezei

The physics of the SYK model at low temperatures is dominated by a soft mode governed by the Schwarzian action. In arXiv:1604.07818 the linearised action was derived from the soft…

Phases of Wilson Lines: Conformality and Screening

Ofer Aharony, Gabriel Cuomo, Zohar Komargodski +2

We study the rich dynamics resulting from introducing static charged particles (Wilson lines) in 2+1 and 3+1 dimensional gauge theories. Depending on the charges of the external pa…

Effective description of sub-maximal chaos: stringy effects for SYK scrambling

Changha Choi, Felix M. Haehl, Márk Mezei +1

It has been proposed that the exponential decay and subsequent power law saturation of out-of-time-order correlation functions can be universally described by collective 'scramblon…

Phases of Wilson Lines in Conformal Field Theories

Ofer Aharony, Gabriel Cuomo, Zohar Komargodski +2

We study the low-energy limit of Wilson lines (charged impurities) in conformal gauge theories in 2+1 and 3+1 dimensions. As a function of the representation of the Wilson line, ce…

Snowmass White Paper: Effective Field Theories for Condensed Matter Systems

Tomas Brauner, Sean A. Hartnoll, Pavel Kovtun +6

We review recent progress and a number of future directions for applications of effective field theory methods to condensed matter systems broadly defined. Our emphasis is on areas…
