Global Anomalies and Effective Field Theory
Siavash Golkar, Savdeep Sethi
We show that matching anomalies under large gauge transformations and large diffeomorphisms can explain the appearance and non-renormalization of couplings in effective field theor…
Viscosities and shift in a chiral superfluid: a holographic study
Siavash Golkar, Matthew M. Roberts
We consider a holographic model of chiral superfluidity whose bulk is Einstein Yang-Mills and compute viscosity and conductivity responses away from the probe limit. We calculate H…
Hall viscosity, spin density, and torsion
Michael Geracie, Siavash Golkar, Matthew M. Roberts
We investigate the relationship between Hall viscosity, spin density and response to geometric torsion. For the most general effective action for relativistic gapped systems, the p…
Operator Product Expansion and Conservation Laws in Non-Relativistic Conformal Field Theories
Siavash Golkar, Dam T. Son
We explore the consequences of conformal symmetry for the operator product expansions in nonrelativistic field theories. Similar to the relativistic case, the OPE coefficients of d…
The Euler current and relativistic parity odd transport
Siavash Golkar, Matthew M. Roberts, Dam T. Son
For a spacetime of odd dimensions endowed with a unit vector field, we introduce a new topological current that is identically conserved and whose charge is equal to the Euler char…
(Non)-Renormalization of the Chiral Vortical Effect Coefficient
Siavash Golkar, Dam T. Son
We show using diagramtic arguments that in some (but not all) cases, the temperature dependent part of the chiral vortical effect coefficient is independent of the coupling constan…
Conformal windows of SP(2N) and SO(N) gauge theories from topological excitations on R3 * S1
Siavash Golkar
We derive an estimate of the lower boundary of the conformal window of SP(2N) and SO(N) gauge theories with fermionic matter in several different representations. We calculate the…
