abstract = {We study the phases of strongly correlated electron systems in two 

 spatial dimensions in the framework of AdS(4)/CFT3 correspondence. The 

 AdS (gravity) model consists of a Dirac fermion coupled to 

 electromagnetic field and gravity. To classify the ground states of 

 strongly correlated electrons on the CFT side and to construct the full 

 phase diagram of the system, we construct a quantum many-body model of 

 bulk fermion dynamics, based on the WKB approximation to the Dirac 

 equation. At low temperatures, we find a quantum corrected approximation 

 to the electron star where the edge is resolved in terms of wave 

 functions extended fully through AdS. At high temperatures, the system 

 exhibits a first order thermal phase transition to a charged AdS-RN 

 black hole in the bulk and the emergence of local quantum criticality on 

 the CFT side. This change from the third order transition experienced by 

 the semi-classical electron star restores the intuition that the 

 transition between the critical AdS-RN liquid and the finite density 

 Fermi system is of van der Waals liquid-gas type.},
