A pioneering treatise presenting how the new mathematical
techniques of holographic duality unify seemingly unrelated fields
of physics. This innovative development morphs quantum field
theory, general relativity and the renormalisation group into a
single computational framework and this book is the first to bring
together a wide range of research in this rapidly developing field.
Set within the context of condensed matter physics and using boxes
highlighting the specific techniques required, it examines the
holographic description of thermal properties of matter, Fermi
liquids and superconductors, and hitherto unknown forms of
macroscopically entangled quantum matter in terms of general
relativity, stars and black holes. Showing that holographic duality
can succeed where classic mathematical approaches fail, this text
provides a thorough overview of this major breakthrough at the
heart of modern physics. The inclusion of extensive introductory
material using non-technical language and online Mathematica
notebooks ensures the appeal to students and researchers alike.
