Two-dimensional Dirac matter in the semiclassical regime

The semiclassical regime of 2D static Dirac matter is obtained from the Dirac equation in curved space-time. To simplify the formulation, the Cartesian space-time geometry parametrization is transformed to isothermal coordinates using quasi-conformal transformations. Using this framework, it is demonstrated that to first order, the semiclassical approximation yields the relativistic Lorentz force equation with additional fictitious forces related to the space curvature and to the mass gradient. An effective graded index of refraction is defined and is directly linked to the metric component in isothermal coordinates. Semiclassical trajectories are evaluated in a simple example by solving the equation of motion and the Beltrami equation numerically.
