An analogy is noted between RG flow equations in 4-dimensional gauge theory, as derived from the AdS/CFT correspondence, and the RG flow equations in 4-dimensional field theory coupled to a particular limit of Weyl supergravity. This…

Input from QCD and string theory is used in order to elucidate basic features of the string theory dual of QCD, It is argued that the relevant string theory is a five-dimensional version of the type-0 superstring. The vacuum solution is…

The discussion of vacuum energy is currently a subject of great theoretical importance, specially concerning the cosmological constant problem in General Relativity. From Quantum Field Theory, it is stated that vacuum states subject to…

In this work we continue the study of the one-loop partition function for higher derivative conformal higher spin (CHS) fields in six dimensions and its holographic counterpart given by massless higher spin Fronsdal fields in seven…

In this paper, we investigate the fermionic current densities induced by a magnetic flux running along the idealized cosmic string in a four-dimensional spacetime, admitting that the coordinate along the string's axis is compactified. In…

Weyl fermions are two-component chiral fermions in (3+1)-dimensions. When coupled to a gauge field, the Weyl fermion is known to have an axial anomaly, which means the current conservation of the left-handed and right-handed Weyl fermions…

Quantum Hall physics has been theoretically predicted in 4-dimensions and higher. In hypothetical 2n-dimensions, the topological characters of both the bulk and the boundary are manifested as quantized non-linear transport coefficients that…

The Weyl conformal tensor is the traceless component of the Riemann tensor and therefore, as is known, the information it contains does not appear explicitly in Einstein's equation. Following a rigorous mathematical treatment based on the…

Weyl semimetals (WSMs) have Weyl nodes where conduction and valence bands meet in the absence of inversion or time-reversal symmetry (TRS), or both. Interesting phenomena are expected in WSMs such as the chiral magnetic effect, anomalous…

When conformal field theories (CFTs) are perturbed by marginally relevant deformations, renormalization group (RG) flows ensue that can be studied with perturbative methods, at least as long as they remain close to the original CFT. In this…

We present the detailed analyses of magneto-conductivities in a Weyl semimetal within Born and self-consistent Born approximations. In the presence of the charged impurities, the linear magnetoresistance can happen when the charge carriers…

Weyl semimetals are a new class of Dirac material that posses bulk energy nodes in three dimensions. In this paper, we study a Weyl semimetal subject to an applied magnetic field. We derive expressions for the density of states, electronic…

Compensated semimetals with Weyl spectra are predicted to exhibit unsaturated linear growth of their resistivity in quantizing magnetic fields. This so-called quantum linear magnetoresistance was introduced by Abrikosov, but approximations…

Unimodular Gravity is a theory displaying Weyl rescalings of the metric and transverse (volume-preserving) diffeomorphisms as gauge symmetries, as opposed to the full set of diffeomorphisms displayed by General Relativity. Recently, we…

We study constraints coming from the modular invariance of the partition function of two-dimensional conformal field theories. We constrain the spectrum of CFTs in the presence of holomorphic and anti-holomorphic currents using the…

In this paper we analyse the vacuum fluctuations of quantum fermionic current densities, $<j^A(x)>$, induced by a magnetic flux running along the core of the conical space produced by the presence of cosmic string, in a $(1+d)-$dimensional…

It is at the heart of modern condensed matter physics to investigate the role of a topological structure in anomalous transport phenomena. In particular, chiral anomaly turns out to be the underlying mechanism for the negative longitudinal…

We calculate the condensate and the vacuum current density induced by external static magnetic fields in (2+1)-dimensions. At the perturbative level, we consider an exponentially decaying magnetic field along one cartesian coordinate.…

We construct a holographic model with Weyl corrections in five dimensional spacetime. In particular, we introduce a coupling term between the axion fields and the Maxwell field such that the momentum is relaxed even in the probe limit in…

We propose a new type of photoresponse induced in asymmetric Weyl semimetals in an external magnetic field. In usual symmetric Weyl semimetals in a magnetic field, the particles and holes produced by an incident light in different Weyl…
