During the same period, the string theory community has developed the AdS/CFT correspondence, a duality between field theories and gravitational systems. This duality may be used to understand condensed matter field theory from a gravitational perspective. It is especially useful for densely entangled quantum matter, which can be described according to the duality by charged black hole systems of classical gravity. In this thesis we will consider the Gubser-Rocha black hole of the Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton action to describe a metal. To understand charge and heat transport in these metals, one needs a mechanism to dissipate momentum. This is explicitly implemented by introducing a periodic lattice in the condensed matter system. Using heavy numerical codes to calculate the gravitational differential equations that are dual to the metal, we can find the transport properties of our metal. In this metal a linear in T resistivity is found, which is a famous property of the strange metals. Furthermore we find empirically a saturation of the conductivity, which could be the instance of Planckian dissipation and the minimal viscosity of the strange metal.Show less
