Thermoelectric transport in disordered metals without quasiparticles: The Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev models and holography
Open accessAbstract
Essentially all high temperature superconductors display a ``strange metal'' regime above their critical temperatures, where electrical and thermal transport cannot be explained within the traditional Fermi liquid paradigm of quasiparticle excitations. This paper focuses on the first, and newly discovered, solvable theory of a disordered metal without quasiparticle excitations, obtained by extending the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) models to finite spatial dimensions. The complete thermoelectric conductivity matrix is computed, and a surprising exact relation is found between the Seebeck coefficient and the derivative of the thermodynamic entropy with respect to the density. These computations are then compared with holographic theories which map strange metals onto black holes in theories of quantum gravity with one extra spatial dimension.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
