Abstract
We present a new formulation of the staggered fermion on the D-dimensional lattice based on the SO(2D) Clifford algebra, which is naturally present in the action. The action of the massless staggered fermion is invariant under the discrete rotation and the SO(2D) chiral and other discrete transformations. From transformation properties of the fermion, we find two local meson operators (one scalar and one pseudoscalar) in addition to two standard meson operators.
