Fractional fermion number and Hall conductivity of domain walls
In this letter the fractional fermion number of thick domain walls is computed. The analysis is achieved by developing the heat kernel expansion of the spectral eta function of the Dirac Hamiltonian governing the fermionic fluctuations around the domain wall. A formula is derived showing that a non...
