Chirality: the definition
Lord Kelvin (1893):“I call any geometrical figure, or groups of points, chiral, and say it has chirality, if its image in a plane mirror, ideally realized, cannot be brought to coincide with itself.”

Classical symmetries and Quantum anomalies

Anomalies: The classical symmetry of the Lagrangian is broken by quantum effects -examples: chiral symmetry - chiral anomaly
scale symmetry - scale anomaly
Anomalies imply correlations between currents:
e.g.

if A, V are background fields,V is generated!

Hydrodynamics and symmetries
• Hydrodynamics: an effective low-energy TOE. States that the response of the fluid to slowly varying perturbations is completely determined by conservation laws (energy, momentum, charge, ...)
• Conservation laws are a consequence of symmetries of the underlying theory
• What happens to hydrodynamics when these symmetries are broken by quantum effects (anomalies of QCD and QED)?

Quantized CME from knot reconnections
Y. Hirono, DK, Y. Yin, arXiv:1606.09611; PRL, in press
Consider a tube (unknot) of magnetic flux, with chiral fermionslocalized on it. To turn it into a (chiral) knot, we need a magnetic reconnection.What happens to the fermions during the reconnection?

Changing magnetic flux through the area spanned by the tubewill generate the electric field (Faraday’s induction):
The electric field will generate electric current of fermions(chiral anomaly in 1+1 D):

Multiple magnetic reconnections leading to non-chiral knots do not induce net current (need to break left-right symmetry).
Helicity change per magnetic reconnection is
For N+ positive and N- negative crossings ona planar knot diagram, the total magnetic helicity is:
The total current induced by reconnectionsto a chiral knot:
