• The physical world is partially unified by remarkable RG flowin QFT
• High Energy Physics: IR→UV(Reductionism)• Condensed Matter Physics: UV→IR(Emergence)
• Thermal Phase Transition• Quantum Phase Transition
• Another seemingly distinct part is gravitation, which isunderstood as geometry by general relativity

Remarkably, with AdS/CFT correspondence, general relativity canalso geometrize renormalization flow in particular when thequantum field theory is strongly coupled, namely
GR = RG.
In this sense, the world is further unified by AdS/CFT duality.This talk will focus on its particular application to condensedmatter physics by general relativity.

Conclusion
• The decrease of vortex number can be well described bytwo-body decay due to vortex pair annihilation from a veryearly time on
• The decay rate is decreased (increased) with the chemicalpotential (temperature)
• The decay rate near the critical temperature is in goodagreement with the mean field theory calculation
• Power law fit indicates that our holographic superfluidturbulence exhibits an obvious different decay pattern fromthat demonstrated in the real experiment
• Holography offers a first principles method for one tounderstand vortex dynamics by its gravity dual
