We formulate a comprehensive hydrodynamic theory of two-dimensional liquid crystals with generic $p-$fold rotational symmetry, also known as $p-$atics, of which mematics $(p=2)$ and hexatics $(p=6)$ are the two best known examples. Previous…

By completing the old discussion of K.~Wilson, we express the chiral anomaly in terms of a double integral of a three-point function of chiral currents over an arbitrarily small region in the coordinate space. An integrability condition…

We develop the formalism that incorporates quantum anomalies in the effective field theory of non-dissipative fluids. We consider the effect of adding a Wess-Zumino-like term to the low-energy effective action to account for anomalies. In…

We formulate Carroll hydrodynamics with the inclusion of a spin current. Our strategy relies on the fact that the $c\to 0$ limit of relativistic hydrodynamics yields the equations of Carroll hydrodynamics. Starting with the pre-ultralocal…

An easy-plane spin winding in a quantum spin chain can be treated as a transport quantity, which propagates along the chain but has a finite lifetime due to phase slips. In a hydrodynamic formulation for the winding dynamics, the quantum…

We study the long-wavelength effective description of two general classes of charged dilatonic (asymptotically flat) black p-branes including D/NS/M-branes in ten and eleven dimensional supergravity. In particular, we consider gravitational…
