Chiral symmetries in field theory are typically affected by an anomaly in the quantum theory. This anomaly emerges when one introduces an interaction with a Yang-Mills or gravitational background. Physical applications of this quantum…

A new type of anomalous Hall effect is shown to arise from the interaction of conduction electrons with dipolar spin waves in ferromagnets. This effect exists even in homogeneous ferromagnets without relativistic spin-orbit coupling. The…
We point out that there is a difference between the behavior of fermionic systems (and their holographic analogs) in a background axial vector field, on the one hand, and at finite chiral chemical potential, on the other. In the former…
We investigate the bulk hydrodynamics of the chiral vortex matter on an arbitrary closed surface, extending the ideas of [20, 41]. Placing this important example of a chiral medium onto a curved geometry reveals the geometric nature of odd…
We show that the chiral vortical effect can exist in a nonchiral electroweak plasma in thermal equilibrium using the effective thermal masses of the fermions in the symmetric phase. We use a nonperturbative formula for the vortical current,…
Chirality is a ubiquitous concept in modern science, from particle physics to biology. In quantum physics, chirality of fermions is linked to topology of gauge fields by the chiral anomaly. While the chiral anomaly is usually associated…
We calculate anomaly induced conductivities from a holographic gauge theory model using Kubo formulas, making a clear conceptual distinction between thermodynamic state variables such as chemical potentials and external background fields.…
We propose the gravitational analog of the chiroptical effect for the first time, demonstrating that gravitational waves (GWs) can induce a reversal of photon chirality through the exchange of angular momentum, namely the spin-2-gravitation…
Similarily as in the Ashtekar approach, the translational Chern-Simons term is, as a generating function, instrumental for a chiral reformulation of simple (N=1) supergravity. After applying the algebraic Cartan relation between spin and…
