Abstract: Boric{c}i-Creutz (emph{BC}) model describing the dynamics of light quarks in lattice emph{QCD} has been shown to be intimately linked to the four dimensional extension of 2D graphene refereed below to as four dimensional graphene (emph{4D-graphene}). Borrowing ideas from the field theory description of the usual emph{2D} graphene, we study in this paper the anomalous quantum Hall effect (AQHE) of the emph{BC} fermions in presence of a constant background field strength mathcalFmuu with a special focuss on the case mathcalFmuu=mathcalBepsilonmuu34+mathcalEepsilon12muu with mathcalB and mathcalE two real moduli and detmathcalFmuu=mathcalB2mathcalimesE2. First, we revisit the anomalous emph{2D} graphene by using emph{QFT} method. Then, we consider the AQHE of emph{BC}fermions for both regular detmathcalFmuueq0 and singular detFmuu=0 cases. We show, amongst others, that the exact solutions of the emph{BC} fermions coupled to constant mathcalFmuu have a 5D interpretation; and the filling factor uBC of the emph{BC} model coupled to constant mathcalFmuu is given by 24%frac(2N+1)(2M+1)2 with N, M positive integers. Others features, such as mathcalFmuuQCDeq0 extrm{and the extension of the obtained results to the lattice fermions like Karsten-Wilzeck (KW) fermions and naive ones}, are also discussed. Key words: Lattice QCD, Boric{c}i-Creutz fermions, Anomalous Quantum Hall Effect, filling factor, four dimensional graphene, Index theorem, Spectral flow.
