New actions for minimally doubled fermions and their counterterms

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2013-08-22 v1

Abstract

Minimally doubled fermions provide a cheap and convenient way of simulating quarks which preserve chiral symmetry. It has been established that two actions of this kind (known as Borici-Creutz and Karsten-Wilczek) require the tuning of three counterterms in order to be properly renormalized. Here we construct some more general minimally doubled actions and investigate the properties of their counterterms.
