Non Mean-Field Quantum Critical Points from Holography

Understand

We construct a class of quantum critical points with non-mean-field critical exponents via holography.

• Our approach is phenomenological.
• Beginning with the D3/D5 system at nonzero density and magnetic field which has a chiral phase transition, we simulate the addition of a third control parameter.
• We then identify a line of quantum critical points in the phase diagram of this theory, provided that the simulated control parameter has dimension less than two.
