1 An Upper Bound on Transport Sean Hartnoll (Stanford) From Quantum Fields to Condensed Long Island August 2017
2 Unconventional transport Unconventional transport regimes are ubiquitous and represent a long-standing challenge to theory. Some of these systems may be beyond well-established methods (Boltzmann equations, large N, etc.) which are typically framed around a quasiparticle lifetime, so that: = m 1 ne 2 (*) (Although! tr in general). Objective: find results on transport that hold with or without quasiparticles, where (*) cannot be assumed.
3 Unconventional transport Recent computations in specific theories, holographic and large N QFT, have suggested a connection between quantum chaos and transport, with diffusivity: D v2 B L [Blake 16; Patel, Sachdev, Qi, Gu, Lucas, Swingle, Chowdury, Davison ] where h[a(t, x),b(0, 0)] 2 i e L (t x /v B ) [Roberts, Stanford, Susskind] defines the butterfly velocity and Lyapunov rate. This is a relation that makes sense without quasiparticles, but wasn t clear why it should hold.
4 An Upper Bound on Transport Based on [hep-th] With Raghu Mahajan and Thomas Hartman
5 Implications of locality: lightcones Even non-relativistic systems have a lightcone : bounded propagation of signals from locality. [Lieb- Robinson 72] [A(t, x),b(0, 0)]. A B e µ( x vt) The Lieb-Robinson velocity: v Ja ~ This is a microscopic, state-independent velocity. It describes the growth of operators under time evolution. i[h,i[h,a]]: i[h,a]: A: a
6 Implications of locality: lightcones In some systems a less microscopic butterfly velocity also bounds signals. [Roberts-Stanford-Susskind; Roberts-Swingle] Evidence of linear-in-time propagation of correlations, entanglement and signals from numerics, holography, QFT. Proof along the lines of Lieb-Robinson currently lacking. Connection to exponential Lyapunov growth in large N models. Picture of operator growth perhaps clearer. [Bohrdt et al 17 (Bose-Hubbard)]
7 x Implications of locality: diffusion Conserved densities diffuse (assume no sound modes): h[n(t, x),n(0, 0)]i /r 2 e x2 /(4Dt) (t & t d/2 eq, x & `eq ). The diffusivity controls transport, e.g.: = D charge, apple = cd heat, = D momentum. At short times, diffusion x = p Dt is too fast! t t Diffusion allowed x = vt Diffusion disallowed
8 Transport bound To avoid contradiction with the lightcone, disallowed region must not be diffusive i.e. must occur before the local equilibration time, so that: D. v 2 eq In a quasiparticle system, eq or tr. The inequality is saturated in quasiparticle regimes, where D v 2. qp More generally, the inequality relates transport to a relaxation timescale, without assuming the existence of quasiparticles. D, v, τeq independently defined with no reference to quasiparticles.
9 Context of the bound The tension between diffusion and causality has long been recognized by relativists and in work on the quarkgluon plasma. [e.g. Baier, Romatschke, Son, Starinets, Stephanov] Previous discussions typically involved uncontrolled modifications of the diffusion equation. Our bound is in the spirit of the [Camanho-Edelstein-Maldacena- Zhiboedov] bound on higher derivative couplings in gravity. The effective theory (diffusion in our case) is acausal, but this is acceptable if acausality is pushed above the cutoff scale.
10 Applications of the bound An important class of systems where a microscopic velocity appears in low energy physics are degenerate Fermi liquids. Evidence that e.g. cuprates do have an underlying temperature-independent velocity: LSCO [Zhou et al. 03] [Lanzara et al. 01]
11 Diffusion in ultracold atomic (non)-fermi liquids Unitary cold Fermions: spin and momentum diffusion [Sommer et al. 11] [Cao et al. 11] n. E F eq md. E F eq
12 Bardon et al. 14 Luciuk et al. 17 Vogt et al. 12 Diffusivities and relaxation rates Diffusivities Relaxation rates (?) Cao et al. 11 Sommer et al. 11 Sommer et al. 11
13 Transport in metals In a metal τeq can be measured from both transport and single-particle probes, e.g. σ(ω) or Σ(ω). Expect v ~ vf, in which case the bound implies: & m e 2 n 1 eq Consistent with transport data in unconventional metals. The existence of the ~/(k B T ) timescale may not be the most mysterious aspect of these materials. What is lacking is a non-quasiparticle way to translate this timescale into a resistivity. Drude formula not allowed!
14 Relaxation rates in T-linear metals The T-linear resistivity is indeed due to ~/(k B T ) [Bruin et al 13] BSCYCO BSCCO [Valla et al 99] [van der Marel et al 03]
15 Looking forward Bounds may help to organize our thinking about nonquasiparticle transport. We obtained an upper bound on diffusion in terms of the lightcone velocity and local equilibration time. Lieb-Robinson velocity best understood in spin systems. Experiments and numerics in e.g. 1d Bose-Hubbard. Theoretical and experimental motivation to understand the role of a non-quasiparticle velocity in metals.
