Hamilton Principle for Chiral Anomalies in Hydrodynamics
P. B. Wiegmann
We developed the spacetime-covariant Hamilton principle for barotropic flows of a perfect fluid in the external axial-vector potential conjugate to the helicity current. Such flows…
Anomalies in fluid dynamics: flows in a chiral background via variational principle
Alexander G. Abanov, Paul B. Wiegmann
We study flows of barotropic perfect fluid under the simultaneous action of the electromagnetic field and the axial-vector potential, the external field conjugate to the fluid heli…
Chiral Anomaly in Euler Fluid and Beltrami Flow
P. B. Wiegmann, A. G. Abanov
We show that the chiral anomaly of quantum field theories with Dirac fermions subject to an axial background field is an inherent property of kinematics of a perfect classical flui…
Axial-Current Anomaly in Euler Fluid
A. G. Abanov, P. B. Wiegmann
We argue that a close analog of the axial-current anomaly of quantum field theories with fermions occurs in the classical Euler fluid. The conservation of the axial current (closel…
Quantization of Hydrodynamics: Rotating Superfluid and Gravitational Anomaly
P. Wiegmann
We present a consistent scheme of quantization of chiral flows (flows with extensive vorticity) in ideal hydrodynamics in two dimensions. Chiral flows occur in rotating superfluid,…
Inner Nonlinear Waves and Inelastic Light Scattering of Fractional Quantum Hall States as Evidence of the Gravitational Anomaly
P. Wiegmann
We develop the quantum hydrodynamics of inner waves in the bulk of fractional quantum Hall states. We show that the inelastic light scattering by inner waves is a sole effect of th…
