Higher-spin Gauge and Trace Anomalies in Two-dimensional Backgrounds
Satoshi Iso, Takeshi Morita, Hiroshi Umetsu
Two-dimensional quantum fields in electric and gravitational backgrounds can be described by conformal field theories, and hence all the physical (covariant) quantities can be writ…
Hawking Radiation via Higher-spin Gauge Anomalies
Satoshi Iso, Takeshi Morita, Hiroshi Umetsu
We give a higher-spin generalization of the anomaly method for the Hawking radiation from black holes. In the paper arXiv:0710.0453 higher-spin generalizations of the gauge (and gr…
Fluxes of Higher-spin Currents and Hawking Radiations from Charged Black Holes
Satoshi Iso, Takeshi Morita, Hiroshi Umetsu
This is an extended version of the previous paper (hep-th/0701272). Quantum fields near horizons can be described in terms of an infinite set of two-dimensional conformal fields. W…
Tuning phase transition between quantum spin Hall and ordinary insulating phases
Shuichi Murakami, Satoshi Iso, Yshai Avishai +2
An effective theory is constructed for analyzing a generic phase transition between the quantum spin Hall and the insulator phases. Occurrence of degeneracies due to closing of the…
Higher-spin Currents and Thermal Flux from Hawking Radiation
Satoshi Iso, Takeshi Morita, Hiroshi Umetsu
Quantum fields near black hole horizons can be described in terms of an infinite set of d=2 conformal fields. In this paper, by investigating transformation properties of general h…
