We consider relativistic U(1) gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions, with N_b species of complex bosons and N_f species of Dirac fermions at finite temperature. The quantum phase transition between the Higgs and Coulomb phases is described by a conformal field theory (CFT). At large N_b and N_f, but for arbitrary values of the ratio N_b/N_f, we present computations of various critical exponents and universal amplitudes for these CFTs. We make contact with the different spin-liquids, charge-liquids and deconfined critical points of quantum magnets that these field theories describe. We compute physical observables that may be measured in experiments or numerical simulations of insulating and doped quantum magnets.

  1. Thermal free energy of large Nf QED in 2+1 dimensions from weak to strong coupling

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    For QED in 2+1 dimensions with many fermion flavors, the thermal pressure to next-to-leading order in 1/Nf is computed across all couplings, giving a curve bounded by the free-fermion and free-photon pressures.
