Recently, the existence of Dirac/Weyl cones in three dimensional systems has been demonstrated experimentally. While in high energy physics the isotropy of the Dirac/Weyl cones is guaranteed by relativistic invariance, in condensed matter systems corrections to this can occur, one possible type being a tilt. In this paper we study the effect of of tilted Weyl cones in collective effects. We study both the opticql conductivity as well as the polarization function. We also investigate the perturbative effect of long-range Coulomb interactions using a renormalization group calculation. We find that the tilt is perturbatively renormalized towards zero and at low energies the system flows to an effectively untilted theory.
