It describes the interaction of fermions with a 2d gravity and has also a local SU(2) gauge invariance of the group of rotations. We reformulate the model as interaction of fermions with the deformation of the lattice, which forms a phonon field. We calculate the response of fermion currents to the external deformation or phonon field, which is a result of a Z_2 anomaly. This can be detected experimentally.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-07-16T14:48:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "graphene sheet", "deformation", "interaction", "phonon field", "effective low energy hamiltonian" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
