In a three-dimensional Fermi liquid, quasiparticles near the Fermi surface may possess a Berry curvature. We show that if the Berry curvature has a nonvanishing flux through the Fermi surface, the particle number associated with this Fermi surface has a triangle anomaly in external electromagnetic fields. We show how Landau's Fermi liquid theory should be modified to take into account the Berry curvature. We show that the "chiral magnetic effect" also emerges from the Berry curvature flux.

  3. Quantum Metric Corrections to Liouville's Theorem and Chiral Kinetic Theory

    hep-th 2025-09 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Quantum metric induces O(ħ²) corrections to phase-space density of states, modifying Liouville's theorem and providing a nonlinear chiral kinetic theory consistent with QFT for chiral fermions in inhomogeneous fields.

  4. Chiral Magnetic effect as the anomaly in the transverse axial vector Ward Identity

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    The chiral magnetic effect is the anomaly of the transverse axial vector Ward identity, which enforces a universal conductivity of 1/(2π²) robust against external parameters and interactions.

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Axial anomaly form is unchanged in dense matter via Ward identity cancellation, yielding a Fermi-velocity-suppressed persistent chiral magnetic current set by axial chemical potential.
