Condensed Matter From Gauge/Gravity Duality, Jason Edward Therrien
Condensed Matter From Gauge/Gravity Duality, Jason Edward Therrien
Doctoral Dissertations
Currently strongly coupled systems present the greatest challenge to theoretical physics. For years conventional methods of approach have failed to describe these systems analytically. In recent years it has been shown that there is a duality between weakly coupled and strongly coupled systems, the Gauge Theory/Gravity Duality. In this dissertation I will discuss how the AdS/CFT is used to describe strongly coupled condensed matter systems as well as present the work done by the author and collaborators.
