We calculate fermionic Green's functions for states of the three-dimensional ABJM M2-brane theory at large N using the gauge-gravity correspondence. We embed extremal black brane solutions in four-dimensional maximally supersymmetric gauged supergravity, obtain the linearized Dirac equations for each spin-1/2 mode that cannot mix with a gravitino, and solve these equations with infalling boundary conditions to calculate retarded Green's functions. For generic values of the chemical potentials, we find Fermi surfaces with universally non-Fermi liquid behavior, matching the situation for four-dimensional N=4 Super-Yang-Mills. Fermi surface singularities appear and disappear discontinuously at the point with all chemical potentials equal, reminiscent of a quantum critical point. One limit of parameter space has zero entropy at zero temperature, and fermionic fluctuations are perfectly stable inside an energy region around the Fermi surface. An ambiguity in the quantization of the fermions is resolved by supersymmetry.

  1. The spectral gap of the ABJM model: A holographic perspective from uplifted higher-dimensional geometries

    hep-th 2026-08 reject novelty 5.0 of 10

    The paper claims a spectral gap in the ABJM dual of a 4d four-charge black brane arising from non-commuting limits, and reports an AdS3/BTZ sector after uplift, but the promised Green's function analysis is absent.

  2. Spectral weight in holography with momentum relaxation

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    In holographic superfluids with axion-induced momentum relaxation, the finite-momentum instability is strengthened and low-energy spectral weight, including Fermi shells, is suppressed.
