Surface States in Holographic Weyl Semimetals

Weyl semimetals (WSMs) are novel gapless topological states of matter with electronic low-energy excitations behaving as left- and right-handed Weyl fermions. Remarkably this is the first known experimental realization of Weyl fermions. As in topological insulators, the existence of surface states is guaranteed by topology. Moreover, it has been shown that the surface states of a WSM form so-called Fermi arcs connecting the projections of the Weyl nodes onto the surface Brillouin zone. I will discuss these states at strong coupling within the so called Holographic Weyl Semimetal.
