• Abstract: With the use of the path integral formalism for finite-temperature field theory, I find the persisting vector and axial currents that are generated in quantum chiral fermionic systems. The role of the explicit violation of chiral symmetry by fermion mass is elucidated. For the case of quantum fermionic systems in the backround of an arbitrary smooth magnetic field, I show that the chiral magnetic effect is substantiated on equally the same footing as the chiral separation effect is. Both effects remain unaltered if chiral symmetry is violated by mass.

  We analytically derive the modified Langevin noise formalism from the established canonical quantization of the electromagnetic field in macroscopic media. We prove that each of the two field parts can be expressed in term of particular bosonic operators, which in turn diagonalize the electromagnetic Hamiltonian.

  Dirac semimetal is a phase of matter, whose elementary excitation is described by the relativistic Dirac equation. Inspired by the flavor symmetry in particle physics, we propose a massless Dirac-like equation yet linking two Weyl fields with the identical chirality. Our work reveals a counterpart of the flavor symmetry in magnetic electronic systems, leading to further possibilities of emergent phenomena in quantum materials.
