The recent evidence for neutrino oscillations stimulate us to discuss again the problem of fermion masses and mixings in gauge theories. In the standard model, several forms for quark mass matrices are equivalent. They become ansatze within…
Algorithmic and technical progress achieved over the last few years makes QCD simulations with light dynamical quarks much faster than before. As a result lattices with pions as light as 250--300 MeV can be simulated with the present…
The mass matrices of charged fermions have a simple structure if expressed in powers of the small parameter sigma=(m_c/m_t)^{1/2}. It is suggested that the mass matrix of the three heavy neutrinos occuring in grand unified theories can be…

The chiral Lagrangian for the Symanzik action through O(a^2) for baryons is obtained. We consider two flavor unquenched and partially quenched lattice theories, allowing for mixed actions in the latter. As an application, we calculate…
