Four-dimensional graphene and chiral fermions
Abstract
Description
Motivated by the description of the graphene electronic structure in terms of the relativistic Dirac equation, a generalization to four dimensions yields a strictly local fermion action describing two species and possessing an exact chiral symmetry. This is the minimum number of species required by the well known ``no-go'' theorems.
