The QED trace anomaly is calculated at one-loop level based on the loop regularization method which is realized in 4-dimensional spacetime and preserves gauge symmetry and Poincare symmetry in spite of the introduction of two mass scales,…
I present a unified formulation of anomalous contributions in quantum field theories by calculating directly the effective action using the background field and covariant-derivative expansion technique. I use this method to determine…
We analyze the parity-odd correlators $\langle JJO\rangle_{odd}$, $\langle JJT\rangle_{odd}$, $\langle TTO\rangle_{odd}$ and $\langle TTT\rangle_{odd}$ in momentum space, constrained by conformal Ward identities, extending our former…
We present a calculation of the parity-violating longitudinal asymmetry in proton-proton scattering. The calculation is performed in the framework of chiral effective field theory which is applied systematically to both the…
Parity-violating quasielastic electron scattering is studied within the context of the relativistic Fermi gas and its extensions to include the effects of pionic correlations and meson-exchange currents. The work builds on previous studies…
We present a revised and extended construction of the mesonic Lagrangian density in chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) at order $p^6$ in the anomalous (or epsilon) sector, ${\cal{L}}_{6,\epsilon}$. After improving several aspects of the…
Two closely related topological phenomena are studied at finite density and temperature. These are chiral anomaly and Chern-Simons term. By using different methods it is shown that $\mu^2 = m^2$ is the crucial point for Chern-Simons at zero…
We have studied the $P\to\gamma^\star\gamma^\star$ form factor in Resonance Chiral Theory, with $P = \pi^0\eta\eta'$, to compute the contribution of the pseudoscalar pole to the hadronic light-by-light piece of the anomalous magnetic moment…
Due to the presence of the chiral anomaly sphalerons with Chern-Simons number a half (CS=1/2) are the only static configurations that allow for a fermion level crossing in the two-dimensional Abelian-Higgs model with massless fermions, i.e.…
We exactly calculated the parity-odd term of the effective action induced by the fermions in 2+1 dimensions at finite chemical potential and finite temperature. It shows that gauge invariance is still respected. A more gerneral class of…
We investigate on the plane the axial anomaly for euclidean Dirac fermions in the presence of a background Aharonov--Bohm gauge potential. The non perturbative analysis depends on the self--adjoint extensions of the Dirac operator and the…
In a September 1976 PRL Eguchi and Freund considered two topological invariants: the Pontryagin number $P \sim \int d^4x \sqrt{g}R^* R$ and the Euler number $\chi \sim \int d^4x \sqrt{g}R^* R^*$ and posed the question: to what anomalies do…
We show that two recent independent proposals for regularizing a chiral gauge theory stem from one common trick. If the anomaly free complex representation carried by the right handed fermi--fields is $r$ one constructs a vector like theory…
The diagrammatic computation of the chiral anomaly is associated with momentum-routing invariance breaking. This happens because the momentum routing in the internal lines of a loop diagram is chosen such that the gauge Ward identities hold…
We discuss the reaction $\pi^- e^- \to \pi^- e^- \pi^{0}$ with the purpose of obtaining information on the $\gamma \pi \to \pi\pi$ anomalous amplitude ${\cal F}_{3\pi}$. We compare a full calculation at ${\cal O}(p^6)$ in chiral…
We discuss the connection between the integer moments of the Fermi distribution function that occur in the Sommerfeld expansion and the coefficients that occur in anomalous conservation laws for chiral fermions. As an illustration we…
We have studied the $P\to\gamma^\star\gamma^\star$ transition form-factors ($P=\pi^0,\eta,\eta'$) within a chiral invariant framework that allows us to relate the three form-factors and evaluate the corresponding contributions to the muon…
Weyl nodes in three-dimensional Weyl semimetals break the Liouville equation, leading to the Liouville anomaly. Here we present a new approach to derive the semiclassical action and equations of motion for Weyl fermions in the presence of…
Using non-local chiral quark model with simple pole ansatz for mass dependence on momentum and non-local currents satisfying Ward-Takahashi identities, we calculate pion to photon transition distribution amplitudes and relevant form…
Measurement of the $\gamma 3\pi$ process has revealed a possible conflict with what should be a solid prediction generated by the chiral anomaly. We show that inclusion of appropirate energy-momentum dependence in the matrix element reduces…
