Massless fermions on a half-space: the curious case of 2+1-dimensions
Abstract Boundary conditions for a massless Dirac fermion in 2+1 dimensions where the space is a half-plane are discussed in detail.It is argued that linear boundary conditions that leave the Hamiltonian Hermitian generically break C P and T symmetries as well as Lorentz and conformal symmetry.We show that there is essentially one special case wher
