SYK model on the surface of 3d TI

ORAL

Abstract

I will present the study of Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model as realized on the surface of three-dimensional topological insulator. I will discuss the possible paths to realizations of the model in a vortex lattice or Corbino disk geometry. I will comment on the randomness in 2-Majorana and 4-Majorana versions of the model, and the crossover between the two limiting case. I will finish with discussing measurable signatures of the model.
