DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/CMU-TP/28/">
 Bose-Luttinger liquids</a>\nby Ethan Lake (MIT) as part of Carnegie Mellon
  theoretical physics\n\n\nAbstract\nIn this talk I will explain the physic
 s behind a new class of quantum phases of matter known as ``Bose-Luttinger
  liquids''. A Bose-Luttinger liquid is a phase of matter which in some res
 pects can be thought of as a metal\, but with charge carriers that are bos
 ons\, instead of electrons. For condensed matter theorists\, these phases 
 are interesting because they provide easy-to-understand examples of metall
 ic systems without quasiparticles\, and may help explain some interesting
  quantum critical phenomena in certain types of helical magnets. For hig
 h-energy theorists\, they are interesting because they provide examples of
  RG fixed points with infinitely many marginal deformations\, which can no
 netheless be described using the technology of 2d CFT. This talk will be b
 ased on the preprint arXiv:2101.02197.\n
