Chiral defect fermions on the lattice in 4+1 dimensions are analyzed using mean field theory. The fermion propagator has a localized chiral mode in weak coupling but loses it when the coupling in the unphysical fifth direction becomes too…

We study the dynamics of two strongly-interacting fermions moving in 2D lattices under the action of a periodic electric field, both with and without a magnetic flux. Due to the interaction, these particles bind together forming a doublon.…

Defining a Chiral Fermion Theory on a lattice has presented an ongoing challenge both in Condensed Matter physics and in Lattice Gauge Theory. In this paper, we demonstrate that a chiral free-fermion theory can live on an ultra-local…

If we construct a lattice fermion formulation, there are a number of goals to be considered: doubling should be avoided; even at finite lattice spacing, we want to represent chiral symmetry in a sound way; and we are seeking a good scaling…

It is shown that it is impossible to construct a free theory of fermions on infinite hypercubic Euclidean lattice in even number of dimensions that: (a) is ultralocal, (b) respects the symmetries of hypercubic lattice, (c) chirally…

In this talk we present a numerical lattice study of an SU(3) gauge model where an SU(2) doublet of non-Abelian strongly interacting fermions is coupled to a complex scalar field doublet via a Yukawa and a Wilson-like term. The model enjoys…
