A current challenge in condensed matter physics is the realization of strongly correlated, viscous electron fluids. These fluids are not amenable to the perturbative methods of Fermi liquid theory, but can be described by holography, that is, by mapping them onto a weakly curved gravitational theory via gauge/gravity duality. The canonical system considered for realizations has been graphene, which possesses Dirac dispersions at low energies as well as significant Coulomb interactions between the electrons. In this work, we show that Kagome systems with electron fillings adjusted to the Dirac nodes of their band structure provide a much more compelling platform for realizations of viscous electron fluids, including non-linear effects such as turbulence. In particular, we find that in stoichiometric Scandium (Sc) Herbertsmithite, the fine-structure constant, which measures the effective Coulomb interaction and hence reflects the strength of the correlations, is enhanced by a factor of about 3.2 as compared to graphene, due to orbital hybridization. We employ holography to estimate the ratio of the shear viscosity over the entropy density in Sc-Herbertsmithite, and find it about three times smaller than in graphene. These findings put, for the first time, the turbulent flow regime described by holography within the reach of experiments.

An exact formula for the temperature dependent Hall number of metals is derived. It is valid for non-relativistic fermions or bosons, with arbitrary potential and interaction. This DC transport coefficient is proven to (remarkably) depend solely on e quilibrium susceptibilities, which are more amenable to numerical algorithms than the conductivity. An application to strongly correlated phases is demonstrated by calculating the Hall sign in the vicinity of Mott phases of lattice bosons.
Correlations between electrons and the effective dimensionality are crucial factors that shape the properties of an interacting electron system. For example, the onsite Coulomb repulsion, U, may inhibit, or completely block the intersite electron hop ping, t, and depending on the ratio U/t, a material may be a metal or an insulator. The correlation effects increase as the number of allowed dimensions decreases. In 3D systems, the low energy electronic states behave as quasiparticles (QP), while in 1D systems, even weak interactions break the quasiparticles into collective excitations. Dimensionality is particularly important for a class of new exotic low-dimensional materials where 1D or 2D building blocks are loosely connected into a 3D whole. Small interactions between the blocks may induce a whole variety of unusual transitions. Here, we examine layered systems that in the direction perpendicular to the layers display a crossover from insulating-like, at high temperatures, to metallic-like character at low temperatures, while being metallic over the whole temperature range within the layers. We show that this change in effective dimensionality correlates with the existence or non-existence of coherent quasiparticles within the layers.

Exact formulas for the Hall coefficient, modified Nernst coefficient, and thermal Hall coefficient of metals are derived from the Kubo formula. These coefficients depend exclusively on equilibrium (time independent) susceptibilities, which are signif icantly easier to compute than conductivities. For weak isotropic scattering, Boltzmann theory is recovered. For strong scattering, well controlled methods for thermodynamic functions are available. As an example, the Hall sign reversals of lattice bosons near the Mott insulator phases are determined. Appendices include mathematical supplements and instructions for calculating the coefficients.
There is considerable recent interest in the phenomenon of anisotropic electroresistivity of correlated metals. While some interesting work has been done on the iron-based superconducting systems, not much is known for the cuprate materials. Here we study the anisotropy of elastoresistivity for cuprates in the normal state. We present theoretical results for the effect of strain on resistivity, and additionally on the optical weight and local density of states. We use the recently developed extremely strongly correlated Fermi liquid theory in two dimensions, which accounts quantitatively for the unstrained resistivities for three families of single-layer cuprates. The strained hoppings of a tight-binding model are roughly modeled analogously to strained transition metals. The strained resistivity for a two-dimensional $t$-$t$-$J$ model are then obtained, using the equations developed in recent work. Our quantitative predictions for these quantities have the prospect of experimental tests in the near future, for strongly correlated materials such as the hole-doped and electron-doped high-$T_c$ materials.

By means of the density functional theory in combination with the dynamical mean-field theory, we tried to examine the electronic structure of hexagonal FeGe, in which the Fe atoms form a quasi-2D layered Kagome lattice. We predict that it is a repre sentative Kagome metal characterized by orbital selective Dirac fermions and extremely flat bands. Furthermore, Fes 3$d$ electrons are strongly correlated. They exhibit quite apparent signatures of electronic correlation induced by Hunds rule coupling, such as sizable differentiation in band renormalization, non-Fermi-liquid behavior, spin-freezing state, and spin-orbital separation. Thus, FeGe can be regarded as an ideal platform to study the interplay of Kagome physics and Hundness. 5
