The fermion bag is a powerful idea that helps to solve fermion lattice field theories using Monte Carlo methods. Some sign problems that had remained unsolved earlier can be solved within this framework. In this work we argue that the…
We study domain wall fermions and their condensation in the D3/probe D7 system. A spatially dependent mass term for the N=2 hypermultiplet can be arranged to isolate distinct two component fermions on two 2+1 dimensional domain walls. We…
It is investigated that a dynamical mechanism to generate a low mass fermion in Randall-Sundrum (RS) background. We consider a five-dimensional four- fermion interaction model with two kinds of bulk fermion fields and take all the mass…
This is a pedagogical article which discusses various kinds of fermion fields: Dirac, Majorana and Weyl. The definitions and motivations for introducing each kind of fields is discussed, along with the connections between them. It is…
We study the generation of small neutrino masses in an extra-dimensional model, where right-handed neutrinos are allowed to propagate in the extra dimension, while the Standard Model particles are confined to a brane. Motivated by the fact…
We investigate the dynamical mass generation resulted from interaction terms with four chiral superfields. The kind of interactions maybe considered a supersymmetric generalization of the four-fermion interactions of the classic…
In this paper, we study the (1+3) dimensional massive Maxwell-Dirac system in the context of global existence and asymptotic behavior of solutions under the Lorenz gauge condition, as well as the modified and linear scattering phenomena for…
In Ref. \cite{Horava2005} Ho\v{r}ava suggested, that the multi - fermion many-body system with topologically stable Fermi surfaces may effectively be described (in a vicinity of the Fermi surface) by the theory with coarse-grained fermions.…
The radiative type-I seesaw has been already implemented to explain the lightness of Majorana neutrinos with both Majorana and Dirac heavy fermions, and the lightness of Dirac neutrinos with Dirac heavy fermions. In this work we present a…
We develop a systematic method to derive the Majorana representation of the Dirac equation in (1+3)-dimensions. We compare with similar approach in (2+2)-dimensions . We argue that our formalism can be useful to have a better understanding…
We propose a type of hybrid Seesaw model that combines Type-1 and Type-2 Seesaw mechanism in multiplicative way to generate tree level Majorana neutrino mass and provides a Dark Matter candidate. The model extends the Standard Model by…
We present a new type of three-dimensional essential Dirac semimetal with magnetic ordering. The Dirac points are protected by the magnetic space groups and cannot be gapped without lowering such symmetries, where the combined antiunitary…
We propose a new method towards distinguishing the Dirac versus Majorana nature of neutrino masses from the spectrum of gravitational waves (GWs) associated with neutrino mass genesis. Motivated by the principle of generating small neutrino…
It is proposed a new mechanism for the phenomenon of topological mass generation in three spacetime dimensions as the result of the interference of two opposite massless chiral modes. This mechanism, already used to produce the massive…
We give a detailed analysis of the particle spectrum and the perturbative unitarity of the recently introduced Weyl-invariant version of the new massive gravity in 2+1 dimensions. By computing the action up to second order in the…
Special-relativistic dynamically-generated elementary-particle mass is represented by a self-adjoint energy operator acting on a rigged Hilbert space (RHS) of functions over the 6-dimensional Euclidean-group manifold. The energy operator is…
Given the success of the deconstruction program in obtaining ghost-free massive gravity from 5-D Einstein gravity, we propose a modification of the deconstruction procedure that incorporates supersymmetry at the linear level. We discuss the…
There has been growing interest in investigating properties of elementary particles predicted by the standard model. Examples of such studies include exploring their low-energy analogs in condensed matter system, where they arise as…
It is shown how the old Cartan's conjecture on the fundamental role of the geometry of simple (or pure) spinors, as bilinearly underlying euclidean geometry, may be extended also to quantum mechanics of fermions (in first quantization),…
We consider a U(1) gauge theory, minimally coupled to a massless Dirac field, where a higher-derivative term is added to the pure gauge sector, as in the Lee-Wick models. We find that this term can trigger chiral symmetry breaking at low…
