Shear viscosity is a measure of the amount of dissipation in a simple fluid. In kinetic theory
shear viscosity is related to the rate of momentum transport by quasi-particles, and the …

We present a first-principles derivation of the main results of the Kerr/CFT correspondence
and its extensions using only tools from gravity and quantum field theory. Firstly, we review …

A comprehensive overview of holographic methods in quantum matter, written by pioneers
in the field. This book, written by pioneers in the field, offers a comprehensive overview of …

These notes are loosely based on lectures given at the CERN Winter School on
Supergravity, Strings and Gauge theories, February 2009, and at the IPM String School in …

We show that at the level of linear response the low-frequency limit of a strongly coupled
field theory at finite temperature is determined by the horizon geometry of its gravity dual, ie …

We consider holography for d-dimensional scale invariant but non-Lorentz invariant field
theories, which do not admit the full Schrodinger symmetry group. We find new realizations …

We discuss recent developments in the hydrodynamic description of strongly coupled
conformal field theories using the AdS/CFT correspondence. In particular, we review aspects …

Strongly correlated quantum fluids are phases of matter that are intrinsically quantum
mechanical and that do not have a simple description in terms of weakly interacting …

Non-relativistic versions of the AdS/CFT conjecture have recently been investigated in some
detail. These have primarily been in the context of the Schrodinger symmetry group. Here …

In this article we review recent progress on the holographic modelling of field theories with
Lifshitz symmetry. We focus in particular on the holographic dictionary for Lifshitz …
