Weyl semimetals can emerge from Dirac semimetals when the time-reversal or spatial-inversion symmetries are broken. Recently, it has been proposed based on the Floquet theory that Dirac semimetals can be converted into Weyl semimetals even…
It has recently been found that Dirac and Weyl metals are characterized by an unusual weak-field longitudinal magnetoresistance: large, negative, and quadratic in the magnetic field. This has been shown to arise from chiral anomaly, i.e.…
The theory of the nonlinear Hall effect has been established by I. Sodemann and L. Fu [Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 216806 (2015)] in a semiclassical framework: therein, the effect appears as a geometrical property of Bloch electrons, originating…

Recent studies suggest that the nonlinear transport properties in Weyl semimetal may be a measurable consequence of its chiral anomaly. Nonlinear responses in transport are estimated to be substantial, because in real materials such as TaAs…
Here, we demonstrate that vacuum fluctuations can induce lateral forces on a small particle positioned near a translation-invariant uniform non-Hermitian substrate with chiral gain. This type of non-Hermitian response can be engineered by…

Weyl nodes come in pairs of opposite chirality. For broken time reversal symmetry (TR) they are displaced in momentum space by $\bf{Q}$ and the anomalous DC Hall conductivity $\sigma_{xy}$ is proportional to $\bf{Q}$ at charge neutrality.…
