Mixed-state phases from local reversibility
Shengqi Sang, Leonardo A. Lessa, Roger S. K. Mong +3
We propose a refined definition of mixed-state phase equivalence based on locally reversible channel circuits. We show that such circuits preserve topological degeneracy and the lo…

A critical theory for solidification of a liquid Fermi liquid
Tarun Grover, John McGreevy
We give a simple description of a zero-temperature phase transition between a liquid metal and a solid. The critical point has a Fermi surface as well as a Bose surface, a sphere i…
