Deconfined metallic quantum criticality: A U(2) gauge-theoretic approach
We discuss a new class of quantum phase transitions—deconfined Mott transition (DMT)—that describe a continuous transition between a Fermi liquid metal with a generic electronic Fermi surface and an electrical insulator without Fermi surfaces of emergent neutral excitations. We construct a unified U...
