Johanna Erdmenger: A holographic Kondo model at strong coupling and conference summary

Description

A holographic RG flow is obtained for a strongly coupled system which interacts with a magnetic inpurity. This is dual to a large N field theory in which a bilinear operator involving an electron and a slave fermion condenses. The resistivity has a power-law dependence on the temperature with real exponent, similarly to a Luttinger liquid. We also find a holographic dual of the phase shift present in field theory Kondo models. At the end of my talk, I will give a brief summary of the conference and an outlook to further directions.
