Abstract

Lectures cover holography and AdS/CFT applied to condensed matter, including quantum phase transitions, linear response theory, transport coefficients, and superconducting/superfluid phases.

AI-generated summary

Four lectures on holography and the AdS/CFT correspondence applied to condensed matter systems. The first lecture introduces the concept of a quantum phase transition. The second lecture discusses linear response theory and Ward identities. The third lecture presents transport coefficients derived from AdS/CFT that should be applicable in the quantum critical region associated to a quantum phase transition. The fourth lecture builds in the physics of a superconducting or superfluid phase transition to the simple holographic model of the third lecture.
