In this work, we examine how charge is transported in a theory where momentum is relaxed by spatially dependent, massless scalars. We analyze the possible IR phases in terms of various scaling exponents and the (ir)relevance of operators in the IR effective holographic theory with a dilaton. We compute the (finite) resistivity and encounter broad families of (in)coherent metals and insulators, characterized by universal scaling behaviour. The optical conductivity at zero temperature and low frequencies exhibits power tails which can violate scaling symmetries, due to the running of the dilaton. At low temperatures, our model captures features of random-field disorder.

  1. Holographic Learning from Fermionic Spectra: Application to Strange Metal Phenomenology

    hep-th 2026-07 accept novelty 7.0

    Neural ODEs learn that normalized low-T cuprate PLL spectra are well described by conformal-to-AdS2 black holes with nearly vanishing gauge potential, while thermodynamics remain invisible to the massless probe.

    A Neural-ODE framework reconstructs effective black-hole metric functions and gauge potential from fermionic spectral functions, validates on known holographic models, and shows low-temperature cuprate strange-metal s...

  3. Lifshitz-like black branes in arbitrary dimensions and the third law of thermodynamics

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Exact black brane solutions with Lifshitz asymptotics are derived in arbitrary dimensions for two models, satisfying the third law for some parameters but exhibiting non-monotonic entropy-temperature relations for others.

  4. Lifshitz-like black branes in arbitrary dimensions and the third law of thermodynamics

    hep-th 2026-04 conditional novelty 5.5

    Exact anisotropic black-brane solutions in arbitrary D satisfy the third law only for restricted warp factors and couplings; otherwise S(T) is multi-valued.
