Self-localization of a single hole in Mott antiferromagnets

Anderson localization - quantum suppression of carrier diffusion due to disorders - is a basic notion of modern condensed matter physics. Here I will talk about a novel localization phenomenon totally contrary to this common wisdom. Strikingly, it is purely of strong interaction origin and occurs without the assistance of disorders. Specifically, by combined numerical (density matrix renormalization group) method and analytic analysis, we show that a single hole injected in a quantum antiferromagnetic ladder is generally self-localized even though the system respects the translational symmetry. The localization length is found to monotonically decrease with the increase of leg number, indicating stronger self-localization in the two-dimensional limit. We find that a peculiar coupling between the doped charge and the quantum spin background causes quantum interference among different hole paths. The latter brings the hole's itinerant motion to a halt, a phenomenological analogy to Anderson localization. Our findings are opposite to the common belief of the quasiparticle picture for the doped hole and unveil a completely new paradigm for lightly doped Mott insulators.

Understanding black hole entropy through the renormalization group

It is known that the entanglement entropy of quantum fields on the black hole background contributes to the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy,and that its divergences can be absorbed into the renormalization of gravitational couplings. By introducing a Wilsonian cutoff scale and the concepts of the renormalization group, we can expand this observation into a broader framework for understanding black hole entropy. At a given RG scale, two contributions to the black hole entropy can be identified: the "gravitational" contribution coming from the running effective gravitational action, and the entanglement entropy of the quantum degrees of freedom below the cutoff scale. At different RG scales the balance is different, though the total black hole entropy is invariant. I will describe this picture for free fields, considering both minimal and non-mininal coupling, and discuss the extension to interacting fields and the difficulties it raises.

I will discuss recent work in simulating asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes, and its relation to heavy ion collider physics. For this purpose, I intend to focus on a class of oblately deformed black hole spacetime solutions. For each of these solutions, I will map the gravitational metric in the spacetime bulk to a stress tensor one-point function of the conformal field theory defined on the spacetime boundary. During the ring-down process, wherein the deformed black hole settles down to the AdS analog of the Schwarzschild solution, I will exhibit evidence that the dual CFT stress tensor on the boundary is that of an N=4 SYM fluid, even for black holes of significant deformation well outside the perturbative regime. We will conformally map the boundary fluid onto a real-world fluid in Minkowski space, and discover a temperature profile which can be thought of as approximating that of a head-on heavy ion collision at its moment of impact. I will close with a description of recent parallel explorations.
