We propose a method to control the number of species of lattice fermions which yields new classes of minimally doubled lattice fermions. We show it is possible to control the number of species by handling $O(a)$ Wilson-term-like corrections…
Minimally doubled fermions have been proposed as a strictly local discretization of the QCD quark action, which also preserves chiral symmetry at finite cut-off. We study the renormalization and mixing properties of two particular…
We generalize the Borici-Creutz action in such a way that the position of the second zero and the direction which breaks the hypercubic symmetry can be arbitrarily chosen, and the action has still the correct continuum limit. Minimal…
We use the two-dimensional Schwinger model to investigate how lattice fermions perceive the global topological charge $q\in\mathbf{Z}$ of a given gauge background $U$. After a warm-up part devoted to staggered, Adams, Wilson and naive…
Discussions are made on the structures of chirally invariant lattice actions without any restriction of hermiticity. With the help of the Ward-Takahashi identity a general conclusion can be derived that there must be species doublers in any…
We study minimal-doubling fermion actions on hyperdiamond and deformed hyperdiamond lattices, with emphasis on the real-space construction of them and Lorentz covariance of excitations from fermion poles. We propose the improved spatial…
Minimally-doubled chiral fermions have the unusual property of a single local field creating two fermionic species. Spreading the field over hypercubes allows construction of combinations that isolate specific modes. Combining these fields…
In this paper we generalize to higher dimensions several types of fermion actions on the hyperdiamond lattice including a two-parameter class of minimal-doubling fermions "Creutz fermion" and a simple fermion with sufficient discrete…
By placing fermions only on the even sites of a lattice, one may halve the momentum spectrum and construct a theory without doublers. The interaction is nonlocal. The fermion propagator is not a sparse matrix, but because the unwanted…
We develop an improved lattice action for heavy quarks based on Brillouin-type fermions, that have excellent energy-momentum dispersion relation. The leading discretization errors of $O(a)$ and $O(a^2)$ are eliminated at tree-level. We…
Single fermionic degrees of freedom together with standard chiral symmetry at finite lattice spacing, correct continuum limit and local interactions only are precluded by the Nielsen-Ninomiya no-go theorem. The class of minimally doubled…
We develop a systematic Hamiltonian formulation of minimally doubled lattice fermions in (3+1) dimensions, derive their nodal structures (structures of zeros), and classify their symmetry patterns for both four-component Dirac and…
We discuss the naive lattice fermion without the issue of doublers. A local lattice massless fermion action with chiral symmetry and hermiticity cannot avoid the doubling problem from the Nielsen-Ninomiya theorem. Here we adopt the forward…
In this paper, we present the recent progress on minimally doubled lattice actions. In particular, we discuss the proposal of Creutz and its variations on an orthogonal lattice. A preliminary computation of the pion mass on an SU(3)…
Recently, the interest in local lattice actions for chiral fermions has revived, with the proposition of new local actions in which only the minimal number of doublers appear. The trigger role of graphene having a minimally doubled,…
A new formulation for fermions on the lattice based on a discretization of a second order formalism is proposed. A comparison with the first order formalism in connection with the $U(1)$ anomaly and the doubling problem is presented. The…
A few years ago some attention has been given to a fermionic action on the lattice, with a Wilson-like term which is chirally invariant but breaks the hypercubic space-time lattice symmetry. This action describes two Dirac fields in the…
The species doubling problem of the lattice fermion is resolved by introducing hopping interactions that mix left- and right-handed fermions around the momentum boundary. Approximate chiral symmetry is realized on the lattice. The deviation…
We formulate Dirac fermions on a (1+1)-dimensional lattice based on a Hamiltonian formalism. The species doubling problem of the lattice fermion is resolved by introducing hopping interactions that mix left- and right-handed fermions around…
The lattice fermion determinants, in a given background gauge field, are evaluated for two different kinds of random lattices and compared to those of naive and wilson fermions in the continuum limit. While the fermion doubling is confirmed…
