In thermal equilibrium the ground state of the plasma of Standard Model particles is determined by temperature and exactly conserved combinations of baryon and lepton numbers. We show that at non-zero values of the global charges a…
We discuss a method for regularizing chiral gauge theories. The idea is to formulate the gauge fields on the lattice, while the fermion determinant is regularized and computed in the continuum. A simple effective action emerges which lends…
Recently a nonuniversal character of the leading spatial behavior of the thermodynamic Casimir force has been reported [X. S. Chen and V. Dohm, Phys. Rev. E {\bf 66}, 016102 (2002)]. We reconsider the arguments leading to this observation…

The recent lattice calculation at finite axial chemical potential suggests that the induced current density of the chiral magnetic effect (CME) is somehow suppressed comparing with the standard analytical formula. We show in a NJL-type…
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…
