A long standing problem in the study of the under-hole-doped cuprates has been the description of the Fermi surfaces underlying the high magnetic field quantum oscillations, and their connection to the higher temperature pseudogap metal. Harrison and Sebastian (arXiv:1103.4181) proposed that the pseudogap `Fermi arcs' are reconstructed into an electron pocket by field-induced charge density wave order. But computations on such a model (Zhang and Mei, arXiv:1411.2098) show an unobserved additional oscillation frequency from a Fermi surface arising from the backsides of the hole pockets completing the Fermi arcs. We describe a transition from a fractionalized Fermi liquid (FL*) model of the pseudogap metal, to a metal with bi-directional charge density wave order without fractionalization. We show that the confinement of the fermionic spinon excitations of the FL* across this transition can eliminate the unobserved oscillation frequency.

Thermopower across Fermi-volume-changing quantum phase transitions without translational symmetry breaking
A large-N model of a Fermi-volume-changing transition without symmetry breaking predicts a skewed marginal Fermi liquid with large asymmetric thermopower, matching CeRhIn5 and Nd-LSCO data.

Lectures on insulating and conducting quantum spin liquids
The notes argue that the FL* state — small pockets plus a quantized spin-liquid anomaly — resolves the ADMR pocket and v_F >> v_Delta problems that defeated holon-metal and plain fermionic-parton theories of the cuprates.

The foot, the fan, and the cuprate phase diagram: Fermi-volume-changing quantum phase transitions
The paper attributes the cuprate 'foot' to a disordered spin-density-wave transition and the 'fan' to a disorder-tuned FL-to-FL* Fermi-volume-changing transition described by a two-dimensional Yukawa-SYK model.
