The physics of pair-density waves: cuprate superconductors and beyond

DF Agterberg, JCS Davis, SD Edkins… - Annual Review of …, 2020 - annualreviews.org
We review the physics of pair-density wave (PDW) superconductors. We begin with a
macroscopic description that emphasizes order induced by PDW states, such as charge …

RM Fernandes, PP Orth… - Annual Review of …, 2019 - annualreviews.org
A hallmark of the phase diagrams of quantum materials is the existence of multiple
electronic ordered states, which, in many cases, are not independent competing phases, but …

Dynamical charge density fluctuations pervading the phase diagram of a Cu-based high-Tc superconductor

R Arpaia, S Caprara, R Fumagalli, G De Vecchi… - Science, 2019 - science.org
Charge density modulations have been observed in all families of high–critical temperature

Planckian dissipation, minimal viscosity and the transport in cuprate strange metals

J Zaanen - SciPost Physics, 2019 - scipost.org
Could it be that the matter from the electrons in high Tc superconductors is of a radically new
kind that may be called" many body entangled compressible quantum matter"? Much of this …

Charge order at high temperature in cuprate superconductors

R Arpaia, G Ghiringhelli - Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, 2021 - journals.jps.jp
The presence of different electronic orders other than superconductivity populating the
phase diagram of cuprates suggests that they might be the key to disclose the mysteries of …

Effective holographic theory of charge density waves

A Amoretti, D Areán, B Goutéraux, D Musso - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
We use gauge/gravity duality to write down an effective low energy holographic theory of
charge density waves. We consider a simple gravity model which breaks translations …

Generalized global symmetries in states with dynamical defects: The case of the transverse sound in field theory and holography

S Grozdanov, N Poovuttikul - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
In this work, we show how states with conserved numbers of dynamical defects (strings,
domain walls, etc.) can be understood as possessing generalized global symmetries even …
