Abstract
We identify an exotic quasiuniversal behavior near the all-in–all-out Weyl quantum critical point in three-dimensional Luttinger semimetals, such as the pyrochlore iridates , with a rare-earth element. The quasiuniversal behavior is characterized by power laws with exponents that vary slowly over several orders of magnitude in energy or length. However, in contrast to the quasiuniversality discussed in the context of deconfined criticality, the present case is characterized by a genuinely universal ultra-low-temperature behavior. In this limit, the pertinent critical exponents can be computed exactly within a renormalization group analysis. Experimental implications for the pyrochlore iridates are outlined.
