Chiral anomalous dispersion

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
The linearized Einstein equation describing graviton propagation through a chiral medium appears to be helicity dependent. We analyze features of the corresponding spectrum in a collision-less regime above a flat background. In the long wave-length limit,

Graviton scattering and a sum rule for the c anomaly in 4D CFT

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
4D CFTs have a scale anomaly characterized by the coefficient c, which appears as the coefficient of logarithmic terms in momentum space correlation functions of the energy-momentum tensor.

*-Wars Episode I: The Phantom Anomaly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
As pointed out, chiral non-commutative theories exist, and examples can be constructed via string theory. Gauge anomalies require the matter content of individual gauge group factors, including U(1) factors, to be non-chiral.

Non-Abelian anomalous (super)fluids in thermal equilibrium from differential geometry

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
We apply differential geometry methods to the computation of the anomaly-induced hydrodynamic equilibrium partition function. Implementing the imaginary-time prescription on the Chern-Simons effective action on a stationary background, we obtain general ...

’t Hooft anomalies and boundaries

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
We argue that there is an obstruction to placing theories with ’t Hooft anomalies on manifolds with a boundary, unless the symmetry associated with the anomaly can be represented as a non-invariance under an Abelian transformation.

6D anomaly-free matter spectrum in F-theory on singular spaces

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
In this paper we study the 6d localized charged matter spectrum of F-theory directly on a singular elliptic Calabi-Yau 3-fold, i.e. without smoothing via resolution or deformation of the entire fibration.

Target-Space Duality in Heterotic and Type I Effective Lagrangians [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We study the implications of target-space duality symmetries for low-energy effective actions of various four-dimensional string theories. In the heterotic case such symmetries can be incorporated in simple orbifold examples.

Boundary conformal anomalies on hyperbolic spaces and Euclidean balls

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
We compute conformal anomalies for conformal field theories with free conformal scalars and massless spin 1/2 fields in hyperbolic space ℍ d and in the ball Bd $$ {\mathbb{B}}^d $$, for 2≤d≤7. These spaces are related by a conformal transformation.

Geometric general solution to the U(1) anomaly equations

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
Costa et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 123 (2019) 151601] recently gave a general solution to the anomaly equations for n charges in a U(1) gauge theory. ‘Primitive’ solutions of chiral fermion charges were parameterised and it was shown how operations performed

Anomalies for Galilean fields

open access: yes, 2018
We initiate a systematic study of `t Hooft anomalies in Galilean field theories, focusing on two questions therein. In the first, we consider the non-relativistic theories obtained from a discrete light-cone quantization (DLCQ) of a relativistic theory ...
