Quantum transport of Dirac fermions

Invitation to Seminar Talk
Quantum transport of Dirac fermions
Dimi Culcer
UNSW Sydney
Host: Georgios Katsaros
Dirac fermions, whether massless or massive, have occupied much of the attention of solid state
physicists for over a decade. During this time our group has worked extensively on charge and spin
phenomena in the steady state of Dirac fermions in topological insulators, Dirac and Weyl
semimetals, and graphene. In this talk I will give an overview of these phenomena, including the
minimum conductivity, current-induced spin polarisation, anomalous Hall effect and its quantum
version, weak antilocalisation, Coulomb drag and the chiral anomaly. I will touch briefly on
electron-electron interaction effects and their implications for many-body states of matter
