Christopher Rosen: Fermi Surface Physics from Gauged Supergravity

Description

Recently, holography has demonstrated its utility as a vehicle for explorations of Fermi surface physics in certain well studied field theories. Previous results in strongly coupled N=4 Super Yang Mills have motivated subsequent investigations into analogous states in 2+1 dimensional ABJM theory. I will overview the application of holography to these systems, introducing new results with interesting features in ABJM theory along the way.
