abstract

We study fractional-derivative Maxwell theory, as appears in effective descriptions of, for example, large $N_f$ QED${}_3$, graphene, and some types of surface defects. We argue that when the theory is UV completed on a lattice, monopole condensation leads to a confining phase via the Polyakov confinement mechanism.

    For 2<d<4, 2D massless fermions coupled to a d-dimensional Maxwell field are exactly described by a scalar whose scaling dimension runs from 0 in the UV to (4-d)/2 in the IR.
