abstract
Gauge theories with compact symmetry groups possess topologically non-trivial configurations of gauge field. This has dramatic implications for the vacuum structure of Quantum Chromo-Dynamics (QCD) and for the behavior of QCD plasma, as well as for condensed matter systems with chiral quasiparticles. I review the current status of the problem with an emphasis on the interplay of chirality with a background magnetic field, and on the observable manifestations of topology in heavy ion collisions, Dirac semimetals, neutron stars, and in the Early Universe.

Holographic U(1)V x U(1)A Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory in Schwarzschild-AdS5 yields thirteen momentum- and B-field-dependent transport coefficient functions for chiral plasma currents, applied to negative magnetoresistance and chiral magnetic waves beyond hydrodynamics.
Time-dependent electric fields in relativistic drifting plasma induce polarization drift that modifies the induced current structure, with quantitative estimates of Hall and polarization contributions provided for the quark-gluon plasma.
Strong magnetic fields in compact stars induce Landau quantization and magnetic-moment couplings that change the equation of state and allow additional degrees of freedom such as hyperons, Delta resonances, and quark matter.
