abstract

We investigate a model closely related to both the original Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model and the $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric SYK model. It consists of $N$ real Majorana fermions and $M$ auxiliary bosons with Yukawa interactions. We consider the large $N$ and $M$ limit and keep the ratio $M/N$ fixed. The model has two branches characterized by the conformal dimensions of fields, which we compute as a function of the ratio $M/N$. One of the branches contains the supersymmetric saddle for $M=N$. Furthermore, we determine the Lyapunov exponent of the model and find maximal chaos independent of $M/N$.

Thermal two-point functions in SYK and complex-time singularities

hep-th · 2026-07-06 · conditional · novelty 6.0

The large-N SYK thermal two-point function exhibits complex-time singularities—an effective-temperature pole and a subleading bouncing-geodesic-like singularity—that persist from infinite to zero temperature.

Fractionalized Fermi liquids and the cuprate phase diagram

cond-mat.str-el · 2025-08-27 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

Reviews the FL* theory for cuprates using ancilla layer models and SU(2) gauge theories to explain pseudogap hole pockets of area p/8, Fermi arcs, and transitions to d-wave superconductivity and Fermi liquid behavior.
