Hamilton principle for chiral anomalies in hydrodynamics

چکیده
We developed the spacetime-covariant Hamilton principle for barotropic flows of a perfect fluid in external axial-vector potential conjugate to helicity current. Such carry helicity, chiral imbalance, controlled by axial potential. The interest such setting is motivated recent observation that axial-current anomaly quantum field theories with Dirac fermions appears as kinematic property classical hydrodynamics. Especially interesting effects occur under simultaneous actions electromagnetic and With help principle, we obtain extension Euler equations derive anomalies divergence vector Our approach provides hydrodynamic expression currents lays down platform studying imbalance their anomalies.

Chiral Anomalies in Field Theories
The role of the contribution from the fermion mass term in the axial vector Ward identity in generating the U(1) axial anomaly, both local and global, is elucidated. Gauge invariance requires the fermion to decouple from the gauge field if it is very heavy. This identifies the Adler-Bell-Jackiw (ABJ) anomaly with the asymptotic limit of the sign reversed mass term. In an instanton background, t...
متن کاملChiral supergravity and anomalies
Similarly as in the Ashtekar approach, the translational Chern– Simons term is, as a generating function, instrumental for a chiral reformulation of simple supergravity. After applying the algebraic Cartan relation between spin and torsion, the resulting canonical transformation induces not only decomposition of the gravitational fields into selfdual and antiselfdual modes, but also a splitting...
متن کاملChiral Alfvén Wave in Anomalous Hydrodynamics.
We study the hydrodynamic regime of chiral plasmas at high temperature. We find a new type of gapless collective excitation induced by chiral effects in an external magnetic field. This is a transverse wave, and it is present even in incompressible fluids, unlike the chiral magnetic and chiral vortical waves. The velocity is proportional to the coefficient of the gravitational anomaly. We brief...
متن کاملConsistent gravitational anomalies for chiral bosons
Exact consistent gravitational anomalies for chiral bosons in two dimensions are treated both with the Schwinger-DeWitt regularization and independently through a cohomological procedure. The diffeomorphism transformations are described by a single ghost which allows to climb the cohomological chain in a unique way. Work supported in part by M.U.I.R.
متن کاملChiral anomalies and Poincaré invariance ∗
I consider theories of Dirac fermions with different regularizations, leading to different chiral anomalies. I have investigated the Poincaré invariance properties of these theories. I find that both Lorentz and translational invariance are anomalously violated in general, but that they are respected in a theory that is regularized to give a Wess-Zumino consistent anomaly (the Bardeen anomaly)....
