Anomalous Transport Coefficients from Kubo Formulas in Holography
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the presence of dense matter quantum anomalies give rise to two new transport phenomena. An anomalous current is generated either by an external magnetic field or through vortices in the fluid carrying the anomalous charge. The associated transport coefficients are the anomalous magnetic and vortical conductivities. Whereas a Kubo formula for the anomalous magnetic conductivity is well known we develop a new Kubo type formula that allows the calculation of the vortical conductivity through a two point function of the anomalous current and the momentum density. We also point out that the anomalous vortical conductivity can be understood as a response to a gravitomagnetic field. We apply these Kubo formulas to a simple Holographic system, the R-charged black hole.

Gravitational anomaly and transport phenomena.
Quantum anomalies give rise to new transport phenomena. In particular, a magnetic field can induce an anomalous current via the chiral magnetic effect and a vortex in the relativistic fluid can also induce a current via the chiral vortical effect. The related transport coefficients can be calculated via Kubo formulas. We evaluate the Kubo formula for the anomalous vortical conductivity at weak ...

– We present generalized Green-Kubo expressions for thermal transport coefficients μ in non-conservative fluid-type systems, of the generic form μ = μ∞+ ∫ ∞ 0 dtV −1〈I exp[tL]I〉0, where exp[tL] is a pseudo-streaming operator. It consists of a sum of an instantaneous transport coefficient μ∞, and a time integral over a time correlation function in a state of thermal equilibrium between a current...

متن کاملNegative magnetoresistivity in chiral fluids and holography
In four dimensions Weyl fermions possess a chiral anomaly which leads to several special features in the transport phenomena, such as the negative longitudinal magnetoresistivity. In this paper, we study its inverse, the longitudinal magnetoconductivity, in the case of a chiral anomalous system with a background magnetic field B using the linear response method in the hydrodynamic limit and fro...
متن کاملGeneralized Kubo relations and conditions for anomalous diffusion: physical insights from a mathematical theorem.
The paper describes an approach to anomalous diffusion within the framework of the generalized Langevin equation. Using a Tauberian theorem for Laplace transforms due to Hardy, Littlewood, and Karamata, generalized Kubo relations for the relevant transport coefficients are derived from the asymptotic form of the mean square displacement. In a second step conditions for anomalous diffusion are d...
