We study a concrete lattice regularization of a U(1) chiral gauge theory. We use Wilson fermions, and include a Lorentz gauge-fixing term and a gauge-boson mass counterterm. For a reduced version of the model, in which the gauge fields are…
The tensor renormalization group is a promising complementary approach to traditional Monte Carlo methods for lattice systems, as it is inherently free from the sign problem. We discuss recent developments crucial for its application to…
A new approach to formulate the fermion field on lattice is introduced by proposing a new Dirac operator on lattice.This approach can eliminate the Fermion doubling problem, preserve the chiral symmetry and get the same dispersion relation…

Lattice QCD simulations with staggered fermions rely on the ``fourth-root trick.'' The validity of this trick has been proved for free staggered fermions using renormalization-group block transformations. I review the elements of the…
The chiral properties of lattice fermions can be improved by altering either their fermion-gauge coupling or the pure gauge part of the action (or both). Using both perturbation theory and nonperturbative simulation, we compare a simple…
Recently we have discussed realization of an exact chiral symmetry in theories with self-interacting fermions on the lattice, based upon an auxiliary field method. In this paper we describe construction of the lattice chiral symmetry and…
We argue that lattice QCD with Ginsparg-Wilson fermions satisfies the Leutwyler-Smilga sum rules for the eigenvalues of the chiral Dirac operator. The result is obtained in the one flavor case, by rephrasing Leutwyler and Smilga's original…
Renormalization factors for bilinear and four-quark operators with the Kogut-Susskind fermion action are perturbatively calculated to one-loop order in the general covariant gauge. Results are presented both for gauge invariant and…
This is the third of a series of papers on three-loop computation of renormalization constants for Lattice QCD. Our main point of interest are results for the regularization defined by Iwasaki gauge action and n_f=4 Wilson fermions. Our…
Lattice fermions obeying the Ginsparg-Wilson relation do correctly represent the physical properties related to chirality. This can be achieved by local fermions, which involve an infinite number of couplings, however. For practical…
We discuss some properties of zero and near-zero modes of the Dirac operator, as observed in a recent simulation of 2-flavor QCD. The quarks have been implemented with the so-called Chirally Improved Dirac operator, which obeys the…
The overlap fermion offers the tremendous advantage of exact chiral symmetry on the lattice, but is numerically intensive. This can be made affordable while still providing large lattice volumes, by using coarse lattice spacing, given that…
We revisit Fradkin and Raby's real-space renormalization-group method to study the quantum Z_2 gauge theory defined on links forming a two-dimensional square lattice. Following an old suggestion of theirs, a systematic perturbation…
