We consider the time-reversal odd dynamics of the bilayer graphene at low energies in the quantum Hall regime. A generating functional for the effective action that captures the electromagnetic response to all orders in momentum and frequency is presented and evaluated to the third order in the space-time gradient O(∂3 ). In addition, we calculate the Hall viscosity and derive an explicit relationship with the q2 coefficient of the Hall conductivity. It is reminiscent of the Hoyos-Son relation in Galilean invariant systems, which can be recovered in the limit of large filling factor N.

† Because of the ±i involved in the definitions of (a, a ), perturbation in the x direction now resembles σy and vice versa. This twist will lead to an extra minus in the effective action. We have built the machinery for computing the traces in Eq. (6). As far as the response functions are concerned, the second diagram in Fig. 2 is the only nontrivial one. The first diagram gives rise to the ground-state charge density, while in the third diagram, the contact term or diamagnetic current vanishes exactly for this model. For the vertices v in Eqs.

APPENDIX B: ANOTHER DERIVATION OF STRESS TENSOR We derive here the stress tensor with a conjectured curved space generalization of model (7)[35]. Let us consider a curved a = δ a b space endowed with the metric gij(x). A matrix field vielbein e j (x) can be introduced via the relation gij abei e j, where , = , i i b = δb ij = δab i j a b 1 2 are local SO(2) rotation indices [36]. The inverse field Ea fulfills Eaei a and g EaEb . With the vielbeins, ∂ ∂ → i ∂ i = i ± i the spatial gradient operator a can be promoted to a curved manifold following a Ea i. Let us further denote E± E1 iE2. The natural generalization of Hamiltonian (7) in the curved space reads 1 2 i † j H = d x [(E−πiψ )(E−π jχ ) + H.c.], (B1) 2m ψ χ φ φ where and are the Grassmannian density of A and B˜ and “H.c.” refers to the Hermitian conjugate. To derive the stress tensor relevant for viscosity computations, we turn on a slightly curved manifold with the metric gij = δij + δgij and assume δgij to be homogeneous. Under this circumstance, τij assumes the following form, 1 ∂H ∂H τ = ea + ea . (B2) ij i j j ∂ i 2 ∂Ea Ea Applying this formula to (B1), we arrive at identical results, Eqs. (25a)–(25c).
