Chiral Gauge Theory for Graphene

arXiv:cond-mat/0701760 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.98.266402

Abstract

We construct a chiral gauge theory to describe fractionalization of fermions in graphene. Thereby we extend a recently proposed model, which relies on vortex formation. Our chiral gauge fields provide dynamics for the vortices and also couple to the fermions.
