Weyl semimetals (WSMs) host charged Weyl fermions as emergent quasiparticles. We develop a unified analytical theory for the anomalous positive longitudinal magnetoconductance (LMC) in a WSM, which bridges the gap between the classical and…

Weyl semimetals are examples of a new class of topological states of matter which are gapless in the bulk with protected surface states. Their low energy sector is characterized by massless chiral fermions which are robust against…
In this paper, we numerically study the magnetic transport properties of disordered Weyl semimetals (WSM) in the ultra-quantum limit. We find a positive magnetic conductivity for the long-range disorder, although the system tends to have…
We demonstrate that chirality of the electron scattering in Weyl semimetals leads to the formation of magnetic chemical bonds for molecular states of a pair of impurities. The effect is associated with the presence of time-reversal symmetry…

Weyl fermions in an external magnetic field exhibit the chiral anomaly, a non-conservation of chiral fermions. In a Weyl semimetal, a spatially inhomogeneous Weyl node separation causes similar effect by creating an intrinsic…
We study the phase diagram of a Dirac semimetal in a magnetic field at a nonzero charge density. It is shown that there exists a critical value of the chemical potential at which a first-order phase transition takes place. At subcritical…
We propose a non-dissipative transport effect and vortical response in Weyl semimetals in the presence of spatial inhomogeneities, namely a spatially varying tilt of the Weyl cones. We show that when the spectrum is anisotropic and tilted…
The effect of incoherent interlayer transport on the interlayer resistance of a layered metal is considered. We find that for both quasi-one-dimensional and quasi-two-dimensional Fermi liquids the angular dependence of the magnetoresistance…

Systems with strong spin-orbit coupling, which competes with other interactions and energy scales, offer a fertile playground to explore new correlated phases of matter. Weyl semimetals are an example where the phenomenon leads to a low…
We present an overview of our recent work on transport phenomena in Weyl metals, which may be connected to their nontrivial topological properties, particularly to chiral anomaly. We argue that there are two basic phenomena, which are…
Scatterings and transport in Weyl semimetals have caught growing attention in condensed matter physics, with observables including chiral zero modes and the associated magnetoresistance and chiral magnetic effects. Measurement of electrical…
Weyl semimetals have nodes in their electronic structure at which electrons attain a definite chirality. Due to the chiral anomaly, the non-conservation of charges with given chirality, the axion term appears in their effective…
We calculate the optical conductivity of type-I and type-II multi-Weyl semimetals(m-WSMs) in time-reversal(TR) broken case at finite doping. It is found that both longitudinal and Hall conductivities are renormalized by J(monopole charge)…
Quantum field theory predicts Weyl semimetals to possess a peculiar response of the longitudinal current density to the application of a DC magnetic field. Such a response function has been shown to be at odds with a general result showing…
