Non-Renormalization of the Chiral Vortical Effect Coefficient    [PDF]

Siavash Golkar, Dam T. Son

We show using diagramtic arguments that the temperature dependent part of the chiral vortical effect coefficient is independent of the coupling constant. An interpretation of this result in terms of quantization in the effective 3 dimensional Chern-Simons theory is also given. In the language of 3D dimensionally reduced theory, the value of the chiral vortical coefficient is related to the formula $\sum_{n=1}^\infty n=-1/12$.
