We compute the full contribution of flavor and (or) Lorentz anomalies to the thermodynamic partition function. Apart from the Wess-Zumino consistency condition the Euclidean generating function must satisfy an extra requirement which we refer to as `consistency with the Euclidean vacuum.' The latter requirement fixes all Chern-Simons terms that arise in a particular Kaluza-Klein reduction of the theory. The solution to both conditions may be encoded in a `thermal anomaly polynomial' which we compute. Our construction fixes all the thermodynamic response parameters of a hydrodynamic theory associated with anomalies.

    hep-th 2025-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Fully back-reacted holographic simulations show nonlinear corrections to anomalously long-lived current oscillations are tiny, so decay rates can be made arbitrarily small at low temperature.

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A large Chern-Simons coupling makes quasinormal modes of magnetically charged AdS black branes approach real frequencies, yielding long-lived modes in the dual boundary theory.
