SUMMARY:Séminaire du LPTMS: Giuseppe Policastro - LPTMS\, salle 201\, 2èm
 e étage\, Bât 100\, Campus d'Orsay - 28 Juin 16 11:00
DESCRIPTION:AdS/CFT and condensed matter systems\nGiuseppe Policastro (LPT-
 ENS\, Paris)\n In this talk I will give an introduction to the idea of th
 e holographic correspondence and some of its applications. In recent years
  holography has been shown to be a very useful tool to get theoretical ins
 ight into systems that can not be studied by more conventional methods\, t
 ypically because there is no small expansion parameter\; such systems incl
 ude the QCD quark/gluon plasma\, high-temperature superconductors\, conden
 sed matter systems in the vicinity of a quantum critical point\, and stron
 gly correlated electron systems (non-Fermi liquids). I will discuss how\, 
 while it is usually not possible to match any given realistic system with 
 a corresponding holographic description\, the method is useful for derivin
 g results of a general nature. I will highlight the main successes of the 
 method and some of the open questions.
