Sumario:Anomalous charge carrier transport in graphene is studied within a topologically nontrivial quasi-relativistic graphene model. The model predicts additional topological contributions, such as the Majorana-like mass-term correction to the ordinary ohmic component of the current, the spin-orbital-coupling, “Zitterbewegung”-effect corrections to conductivity in space, and time dispersion regime. The corrections appear due to non-Abelian quantum statistics for the charge carriers in graphene. The chiral anomaly of electrophysical and optical properties may emerge due to a deconfinement of the pseudo-Majorana quasiparticles. It has been shown that phenomena of negative differential conductivity, loss of universal far-infrared optical conductivity, and nonzero “minimal” direct-current conductivity in graphene occur due to flattening and vorticity of the pseudo-Majorana model graphene energy bands.
