%0 Journal Article %T Seeking to Develop Global SYK-Ness %A Dmitri V. Khveshchenko %J Condensed Matter | An Open Access Journal from MDPI %D 2018 %R https://doi.org/10.3390/condmat3040040 %X Abstract Inspired by the recent interest in the Sachdev¨CYe¨CKitaev (SYK) model, we study a class of multi-flavored one- and two-band fermion systems with no bare dispersion. In contrast to the previous work on the SYK model that would routinely assume spatial locality, thus unequivocally arriving at the so-called ¡®locally-critical¡¯ scenario, we seek to attain a spatially-dispersing ¡®globally-SYK¡¯ behavior. To that end, a variety of the Lorentz-(non)invariant space-and/or-time dependent algebraically decaying interaction functions is considered and some of the thermodynamic and transport properties of such systems are discussed.
