Domain-wall fermions preserve chiral symmetry up to terms that decrease exponentially when the lattice size in the fifth dimension is taken to infinity. The associated rates of convergence are given by the low-lying eigenvalues of a simple…
At stronger gauge-field couplings, the domain wall fermion (DWF) residual mass, a measure of chiral symmetry breaking, grows rapidly. This measure is largely due to near zero fermion eigenmodes of logarithm of the 4D transfer matrix along…
