Solidity without inhomogeneity: perfectly homogeneous, weakly coupled, UV-complete solids
Abstract Solid-like behavior at low energies and long distances is usually associated with the spontaneous breaking of spatial translations at microscopic scales, as in the case of a lattice of atoms. We exhibit three quantum field theories that are renormalizable, Poincaré invariant, and weakly cou...
