abstract

We consider four-dimensional chiral gauge theories defined over a spacetime manifold with topology $\mathbb{R}^3 \times S^1$ and periodic boundary conditions over the compact dimension. The effective gauge-field action is calculated for Abelian $U(1)$ gauge fields $A_{\mu}(x)$ which depend on all four spacetime coordinates (including the coordinate $x^{4}\in S^1$ of the compact dimension) and have vanishing components $A_{4}(x)$ (implying trivial holonomies in the 4-direction). Our calculation shows that the effective gauge-field action contains a local Chern-Simons-like term which violates Lorentz and CPT invariance. This result is established perturbatively with a generalized Pauli-Villars regularization and nonperturbatively with a lattice regularization based on Ginsparg-Wilson fermions.

    cond-mat.str-el 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    The parity-odd cylinder determinant of a gapped Dirac cone fixes ν_s = C/2 and K_em = 2C for semion CSLs, with strictly exponential finite-size corrections, confirmed on kagome at three levels.

  2. Vacuum Cherenkov radiation for nonminimal dimension-5 Lorentz violation

    hep-ph 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Isotropic dimension-5 Lorentz violation in fermions is constrained to below 1e-18 GeV^-1 (proton, m-type) and 3e-28 GeV^-1 (proton, a-type) by the absence of vacuum Cherenkov radiation in cosmic rays.
