Description
I will review anomalous transport theory with emphasis on chiral magnetic and chiral vortical effects with emphasis on effects of gravitational anomalies. I'll discuss how anomalies should be interpreted as properties of the quantum theories. Then I'll apply anomalous transport theory to the physics of Weyl semi-metals and derive magneto conductivities. I'll also show that Onsager reciprocity relations, Wiedemann-Franz law, and Mott formula hold for the anomalous conductivities in the appropriate regime.
