A non-classical Weyl theory is developed for Dirac systems with rectangular matrix potentials. The notion of the Weyl function is introduced and the corresponding direct problem is treated. Furthermore, explicit solutions of the direct and…
Motivated by the connection between gauge field topology and the axial anomaly in fermion currents, I use the fourth power of the naive Dirac operator to define a local lattice measure of topological charge. For smooth gauge fields this…

3+1-dimensional Weyl fermions in interacting systems are described by effective quasi-relativistic Green's functions parametrized by a 16 element matrix $e^\mu_\alpha$ in an expansion around the Weyl point. The matrix $e^{\mu}_{\alpha}$ can…

We study strained Hg$_{1-x-y}$Cd$_x$Mn$_y$Te in a magnetic field using a $\bm{k}\cdot\bm{p}$ model and predict that the system is a Weyl semimetal with two nodes in an experimentally reasonable region of the phase diagram. We also predict…
The Hamilton-Jacobi formalism is used to analyze the Weyl theory in the weak-field limit. The complete set of involutive Hamiltonians is obtained, which are classified into involutive and non-involutive. The counting of degrees of freedom…
We consider the quantum Hall effect (QHE) in a system of interacting electrons. Our formalism is valid for systems in the presence of an external magnetic field, as well as for systems with a nontrivial band topology. That is, the…
