Observation of Possible Nonlinear Anomalous Hall Effect in Organic Two-Dimensional Dirac Fermion System

We report the observation of nonlinear anomalous Hall effect (NLAHE) in the multilayered organic conductor α-(BEDT-TTF)2I3 in the charge order (CO) insulating phase just under the critical pressure for transition into two-dimensional (2D) massless Dirac fermion (DF) phase. We successfully extracted the finite nonlinear Hall voltage proportional to square current at zero magnetic field. The observed NLAHE features, current direction dependence and correlation with CO, are consistent with the previous estimation assuming 2D massive DF with a pair of tilted Dirac cones. This is the first observation of topological transport in organic conductors, and also the first example of NLAHE in the electronic phase with spontaneous symmetry breaking.

Modular Hamiltonians for the massless Dirac field in the presence of a boundary

We study the modular Hamiltonians of an interval for the massless Dirac fermion on the half-line. The most general boundary conditions ensuring the global energy conservation lead to consider two phases, where either the vector or the axial symmetry is preserved. In these two phases we derive the corresponding modular Hamiltonian in explicit form. Its density involves a bi-local term localised in two points of the interval, one conjugate to the other. The associated modular flows are also established. Depending on the phase, they mix fields with different chirality or charge that follow different modular trajectories. Accordingly, the modular flow preserves either the vector or the axial symmetry. We compute the two-point correlation functions along the modular flow and show that they satisfy the Kubo-Martin-Schwinger condition in both phases. The entanglement entropies are also derived.

No Mass Gap Phase Transition in Novel Massless Dirac Fermion Material

Using an organic massless Dirac fermion system, we found that massless Dirac fermions undergo a quantum phase transition without creating any mass gap even in the strong coupling regime.

The Riemann Zeros as Spectrum and the Riemann Hypothesis

We present a spectral realization of the Riemann zeros based on the propagation of a massless Dirac fermion in a region of Rindler spacetime and under the action of delta function potentials localized on the square free integers. The corresponding Hamiltonian admits a self-adjoint extension that is tuned to the phase of the zeta function, on the critical line, in order to obtain the Riemann zeros as bound states. The model suggests a proof of the Riemann hypothesis in the limit where the potentials vanish. Finally, we propose an interferometer that may yield an experimental observation of the Riemann zeros.
