Holography for strange metals from A to B

Abstract: I will discuss selected applications of the holographic duality (AdS/CFT, gauge/gravity duality) in strongly correlated systems, in particular the description of strange metals. After introducing the basic notions of holography on an informal level, I will consider the holographic scaling atlas, semilocal quantum liquids and attempts to describe a strongly coupled holographic Fermi liquid. Toward the end holographic lattices and (if time permits) some relations to quantum chaos will be discussed. The talk is mainly a broad review of holographic strange metals but also includes some recent original results.
