Critical exponents at the unconventional disorder-driven transition in a Weyl semimetal

Published 13 Dec 2015 in cond-mat.mes-hall, cond-mat.dis-nn, cond-mat.str-el, and hep-th | (1512.04130v2)

Abstract: Disordered non-interacting systems in sufficiently high dimensions have been predicted to display a non-Anderson disorder-driven transition that manifests itself in the critical behaviour of the density of states and other physical observables. Recently the critical properties of this transition have been extensively studied for the specific case of Weyl semimetals by means of numerical and renormalisation-group approaches. Despite this, the values of the critical exponents at such a transition in a Weyl semimetal are currently under debate. We present an independent calculation of the critical exponents using a two-loop renormalisation-group approach for Weyl fermions in $2-\varepsilon$ dimensions and resolve controversies currently existing in the literature.
