QCD Dirac Spectrum at Finite Chemical Potential: Anomalous Effective Action, Berry Phase and Composite Fermions
arXiv:1509.00812
Abstract
We show that the QCD Dirac spectrum at finite chemical potential using a matrix model in the spontaneously broken phase, is amenable to a generic 2-dimensional effective action. The eigenvalues form a droplet with strong screening and plasmon oscillation. The droplet is threaded by a magnetic vortex which is at the origin of a Berry phase. For quarks in the complex or Dirac representation, the anomalous transport in the droplet of eigenvalues bear some similarities with that in droplets of composite fermions at half filling suggesting that the latters maybe Dirac fermions.
