We consider fermion systems on a square lattice with a mass term having a curved domain-wall. Similarly to the conventional flat domain-wall fermions, massless and chiral edge states appear on the wall. In the cases of $S^1$ and $S^2$…
We study a system of nanowires, i.e., the theory of 1+1 dimensional massless fermions interacting with 3+1 dimensional U(1) gauge fields. When allowing for non-zero chemical potentials, this system has a complex action problem in the…
We discuss a number of lattice fermion actions solving the Ginsparg-Wilson relation. We also consider short ranged approximate solutions. In particular, we are interested in reducing the lattice artifacts, while avoiding (or suppressing)…

Critical slowing down for the Krylov Dirac solver presents a major obstacle to further advances in lattice field theory as it approaches the continuum solution. We propose a new multi-grid approach for chiral fermions, applicable to both…

Domain wall fermions are defined on a lattice with an extra direction the size of which controls the chiral properties of the theory. When gauge fields are coupled to domain wall fermions the extra direction is treated as an internal flavor…
Domain-wall fermions (DWF) is a lattice discretization for Dirac fields that preserves continuum-like chiral and flavor symmetries that are essential in hadron physics. RIKEN-BNL-Columbia (RBC) and UKQCD Collaborations have been generating…
We present a formulation of domain wall fermions in the Schroedinger functional by following the universality argument given by L\"uscher. To check whether the formulation works, we examine the lowest eigenmode of the free domain wall…
The Ginsparg-Wilson (GW) relation elegantly captures how the anomalous chiral symmetry of a Dirac fermion manifests on the lattice. In this talk, we discuss how the GW relation and its closed-form solution, the overlap operator, can be…
We review recent results for the chiral behavior of meson masses and decay constants and the determination of the light quark masses by the RBC and UKQCD collaborations. We find that one-loop SU(2) chiral perturbation theory represents the…
