Anomalous metallic properties are often observed in the proximity of quantum critical points (QCPs), with violation of the Fermi Liquid paradigm. We propose a scenario where, due to the presence of a nearby QCP, dynamical fluctuations of the order parameter with finite correlation length mediate a nearly isotropic scattering among the quasiparticles over the entire Fermi surface. This scattering produces an anomalous metallic behavior, which is extended to the lowest temperatures by an increase of the damping of the fluctuations. We phenomenologically identify one single parameter ruling this increasing damping when the temperature decreases, accounting for both the linear-in-temperature resistivity and the seemingly divergent specific heat observed, e.g., in high-temperature superconducting cuprates and some heavy-fermion metals.

A fundamental challenge to our current understanding of metals is the frequent observation of qualitative departures from Fermi liquid behavior. The standard view attributes such non-Fermi liquid phenomena to the scattering of electrons off quantum c
ritical fluctuations of an underlying order parameter. While the possibility of non-Fermi liquid behavior isolated from the border of magnetism has long been speculated, no experimental confirmation has been made. Here we report on the observation of a strange metal region in the absence of a magnetic instability in an ultrapure single crystal. In particular, we show that the heavy fermion superconductor $beta$-YbAlB$_4$ forms a possible phase with strange metallic behavior across an extensive pressure regime, distinctly separated from a high-pressure magnetic quantum phase transition by a Fermi liquid phase.
A central mystery in high temperature superconductivity is the origin of the so-called strange metal, i.e., the anomalous conductor from which superconductivity emerges at low temperature. Measuring the dynamic charge response of the copper-oxides, $
chi(q,omega)$, would directly reveal the collective properties of the strange metal, but it has never been possible to measure this quantity with meV resolution. Here, we present the first measurement of $chi(q,omega)$ for a cuprate, optimally doped Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+x}$ ($T_c=91$ K), using momentum-resolved inelastic electron scattering. In the medium energy range 0.1-2 eV relevant to the strange metal, the spectra are dominated by a featureless, temperature- and momentum-independent continuum persisting to the eV energy scale. This continuum displays a simple power law form, exhibiting $q^2$ behavior at low energy and $q^2/omega^2$ behavior at high energy. Measurements of an overdoped crystal ($T_c=50$ K) showed the emergence of a gap-like feature at low temperature, indicating deviation from power law form outside the strange metal regime. Our study suggests the strange metal exhibits a new type of charge dynamics in which excitations are local to such a degree that space and time axes are decoupled.
Could it be that the matter from the electrons in high Tc superconductors is of a radically new kind that may be called many body entangled compressible quantum matter? Much of this text is intended as an easy to read tutorial, explaining recent theo
retical advances that have been unfolding at the cross roads of condensed matter- and string theory, black hole physics as well as quantum information theory. These developments suggest that the physics of such matter may be governed by surprisingly simple principles. My real objective is to present an experimental strategy to test critically whether these principles are actually at work, revolving around the famous linear resistivity characterizing the strange metal phase. The theory suggests a very simple explanation of this unreasonably simple behavior that is actually directly linked to remarkable results from the study of the quark gluon plasma formed at the heavy ion colliders: the fast hydrodynamization and the minimal viscosity. This leads to high quality predictions for experiment: the momentum relaxation rate governing the resistivity relates directly to the electronic entropy, while at low temperatures the electron fluid should become unviscous to a degree that turbulent flows can develop even on the nanometre scale.
Recent progress in extremely correlated Fermi liquid theory (ECFL) and dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) enables us to compute in the $d to infty$ limit the resistivity of the $t-J$ model after setting $Jto0$. This is also the $U=infty$ Hubbard mode
l. We study three densities $n=.75,.8,.85$ that correspond to a range between the overdoped and optimally doped Mott insulating state. We delineate four distinct regimes characterized by different behaviors of the resistivity $rho$. We find at the lowest $T$ a Gutzwiller Correlated Fermi Liquid regime with $rho propto T^2$ extending up to an effective Fermi temperature that is dramatically suppressed from the non-interacting value. This is followed by a Gutzwiller Correlated Strange Metal regime with $rho propto (T-T_0)$, i.e. a linear resistivity extrapolating back to $rho=0$ at a positive $T_0$. At a higher $T$ scale, this crosses over into the Bad Metal regime with $rho propto (T+T_1)$ extrapolating back to a finite resistivity at $T=0$, and passing through the Ioffe-Regel-Mott value where the mean free path is a few lattice constants. This regime finally gives way to the High $T$ Metal regime, where we find $rho propto T$. The present work emphasizes the first two, where the availability of an analytical ECFL theory is of help in identifying the changes in related variables entering the resistivity formula that accompany the onset of linear resistivity, and the numerically exact DMFT helps to validate the results. We also examine thermodynamic variables such as the magnetic susceptibility, compressibility, heat capacity and entropy, and correlate changes in these with the change in resistivity. This exercise casts valuable light on the nature of charge and spin correlations in the strange metal regime, which has features in common with the physically relevant strange metal phase seen in strongly correlated matters.
Using both a resonant level model and the time-dependent Gutzwiller approximation, we study the power dissipation of a localized impurity hybridized with a conduction band when the hybridization is periodically switched on and off. The total dissipat
ed energy is proportional to the Kondo temperature, with a non-trivial frequency dependence. At low frequencies it can be well approximated by the one of a single quench, and is obtainable analitically; at intermediate frequencies it undergoes oscillations; at high frequencies, after reaching its maximum, it quickly drops to zero. This frequency-dependent energy dissipation could be relevant to systems such as irradiated quantum dots, where Kondo can be switched at very high frequencies.
