We study the structure of fermionic mass eigenstates in a pure four-dimensional deconstruction approach. Unlike the case with the usual higher dimensional deconstruction (or latticized extra dimension), here the doubling of fermionic…
Majorana fermions are often proposed to be realized by first singling out one Fermi surface without spin degeneracy via spin-orbit coupling, and then imposing boundaries or defects. In this work, we take a different route starting with two…
Using a canonical transformation it is possible to faithfully represent the Kondo lattice model in terms of Majorana fermions. Studying this representation we discovered an exact mapping between the Kondo lattice Hamiltonian and a…
We consider path integration of a fermionic oscillator with a one-parameter family of boundary conditions with respect to the time coordinate. The dependence of the fermion determinant on these boundary conditions is derived in a closed…
