On holographic disorder-driven metal-insulator transitions

M Baggioli, O Pujolas - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 - Springer
A bstract We give a minimal holographic model of a disorder-driven metal-insulator
transition. It consists in a CFT with a charge sector and a translation-breaking sector that …

Renormalization group flow in field theories with quenched disorder

O Aharony, V Narovlansky - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
In this paper, we analyze the renormalization group (RG) flow of field theories with
quenched disorder, in which the couplings vary randomly in space. We analyze both …

M Ammon, M Baggioli, A Jiménez-Alba… - Journal of High Energy …, 2018 - Springer
A bstract We study the effects of quenched one-dimensional disorder on the holographic
Weyl semimetal quantum phase transition (QPT), with a particular focus on the quantum …

Renormalization group in quantum critical theories with Harris-marginal disorder

K Ganesan, A Lucas, L Radzihovsky - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
We develop a renormalization group for weak Harris-marginal disorder in otherwise strongly
interacting quantum critical theories, focusing on systems which have emergent conformal …

Holographic disorder driven superconductor-metal transition

D Arean, LA Pando Zayas, IS Landea, A Scardicchio - Physical Review D, 2016 - APS
We implement the effects of disorder on a holographic superconductor by introducing a
random chemical potential on the boundary. We demonstrate explicitly that increasing …

Breakdown of emergent Lifshitz symmetry in holographic matter with Harris-marginal disorder

K Ganesan, A Lucas - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 - Springer
A bstract We revisit the theory of strongly correlated quantum matter perturbed by Harris-
marginal random-field disorder, using the simplest holographic model. We argue that for …

Transport in a gravity dual with a varying gravitational coupling constant

AM García-García, B Loureiro, A Romero-Bermúdez - Physical Review D, 2016 - APS
We study asymptotically AdS Brans-Dicke (BD) backgrounds, where the Ricci tensor R is
coupled to a scalar in the radial dimension, as effective models of metals with a varying …

Coherence effects in disordered geometries with a field-theory dual

T Andrade, AM García-García, B Loureiro - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 - Springer
A bstract We investigate the holographic dual of a probe scalar in an asymptotically Anti-de-
Sitter (AdS) disordered background which is an exact solution of Einstein's equations in …

Disorder and Hydrodynamics in Strongly Correlated Systems

K Ganesan - 2023 - search.proquest.com
In this dissertation, we present an overview of the application of gauge-gravity duality, more
commonly referred to as holography, to study different aspects of strongly interacting …

Noisy branes

M Araújo, D Areán, JM Lizana - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016 - Springer
A bstract We study the effects of disorder on strongly coupled compressible matter in 2+ 1
dimensions. Our system consists of a D3/D5 intersection at finite temperature and in the …
