Fractons from Vector Gauge Theory

Journal Article Radzihovsky, Leo ; Hermele, Michael - Physical Review Letters

Motivated by the prediction of fractonic topological defects in a quantum crystal, we utilize a reformulated elasticity duality to derive a description of a fracton phase in terms of coupled vector U(1) gauge theories. The fracton order and restricted mobility emerge as a result of an unusual Gauss law where electric field lines of one gauge field act as sources of charge for others. At low energies this vector gauge theory reduces to the previously studied fractonic symmetric tensor gauge theory. Here, we construct the corresponding lattice model and a number of generalizations, which realize fracton phases via a condensationmore »« less

Odd fracton theories, proximate orders, and parton constructions

Journal Article Pretko, Michael ; Parameswaran, S. A. ; Hermele, Michael - Physical Review B

The Lieb-Schultz-Mattis (LSM) theorem implies that gapped phases of matter must satisfy nontrivial conditions on their low-energy properties when a combination of lattice translation and U(1) symmetry are imposed. We describe a framework to characterize the action of symmetry on fractons and other subdimensional fractional excitations, and use this together with the LSM theorem to establish that X-cube fracton order can occur only at integer or half-odd-integer filling. Using explicit parton constructions, we demonstrate that “odd” versions of X-cube fracton order can occur in systems at half-odd-integer filling, generalizing the notion of odd Z₂ gauge theory to the fracton setting.more »« less
