We predict that magnon motive force can lead to temperature dependent, nonlinear chiral damping in both conducting and insulating ferromagnets. We estimate that this damping can significantly influence the motion of skyrmions and domain…
The presence of a chiral asymmetry in a relativistic plasma opens a tachyonic instability toward the growth of a helical magnetic field. We study the transfer of energy from the chiral asymmetry into the magnetic field during the…
We study the impact of axial-anomaly effects on the chiral phase structure in a $U(3)$-extended soft-wall holographic QCD model. Including the pseudoscalar singlet sector allows for a dynamical description of the $\eta$-$\eta^\prime$ system…
Non-Abelian gauge theories "live" in a space-time with non-trivial topology that can be characterized by an odd-dimensional Chern-Simons form. In QCD, Chern-Simons form is induced by the chiral anomaly and the presence of topological…
Magnetic textures can be manipulated by electric currents via the mechanisms of spin-transfer and spin-orbit-torques. We review how these torques can be exploited to create chiral magnetic textures in magnets with broken inversion…
We study the dependence of the chiral condensate on external magnetic field in the context of holographic QCD at large number of flavors. We consider a holographic QCD model where the flavor degrees of freedom fully backreact on the color…
Violation of the $U(1)$ axial symmetry in QCD is stricter than the chiral $SU(2)$ breaking, simply because of the presence of the quantum axial anomaly. If the QCD gauge coupling is sent to zero, the strength of the $U(1)$ axial breaking…
We perform a first lattice QCD simulation including two-flavor dynamical fermion with a chiral chemical potential. Because the chiral chemical potential gives rise to no sign problem, we can exactly analyze a chirally imbalanced QCD matter…
Chiral magnetic states give rise to rich phenomena, from the anomalous Hall effect and the nonlinear electrical current to multiferroics and magnetochiral dichroism. Most of the studies on electrical transport so far have focused on the…
The quantum spin Hall effect has been observed in topological insulators using spin-orbit coupling as the probe, but it has not yet been observed in a metal. An experiment is proposed to measure the quantum spin Hall effect of an electron…
The thermal contribution to the chiral vortical effect is believed to be related to the axial anomaly in external gravitational fields. We use the universality of the spin-gravity interaction to extend this idea to a wider set of phenomena.…
We generalize chiral perturbation theory with spinless matter fields in the fundamental representation of ${\rm SU}(N)$ to curved spacetime in the presence of an external gravitational field. This work is motivated by recent interest in…
My personal views of the Chiral Magnetic Effect are presented, which starts with a story about how we came up with the electric-current formula and continues to unsettled subtleties in the formula. There are desirable features in the…
We consider chiral perturbation theory for SU(2) at finite temperature $T$ in a constant magnetic background $B$. We compute the thermal mass of the pions and the pion decay constant to leading order in chiral perturbation theory in the…
For systems with charged chiral fermions, the imbalance of chirality in the presence of magnetic field generates an electric current - this is the Chiral Magnetic Effect (CME). We study the dynamical real-time evolution of electromagnetic…
Based on the gauge/gravity correspondence we have calculated the thermoelectric kinetic and transport characteristics of the strongly interacting materials in the presence of perpendicular magnetic field. The 3+1 dimensional system with…
We investigate inhomogeneous chiral condensation under rotation considering finite size effects and boundary conditions in the holographic QCD model. The rotational suppression effect determined by $\Omega r$ is confirmed in the holographic…
Torsion can be realized as dislocation in the crystal lattice of material. It is particularly interesting if the material has fermions in the spectrum, such as graphene, topological insulators, Dirac and Weyl semimetals, as it's transport…
