The Nielsen-Ninomiya theorem is a fundamental theorem on the realization of chiral fermions in static lattice systems in high-energy and condensed matter physics. Here we extend the theorem in dynamical systems, which include the original…

In this work, we build a model to combine the mass generated from the Higgs mechanism and that from the dynamical chiral symmetry breaking mechanism. This is motivated by the fermion mass hierarchy that the neutrino mass is smaller than the…

In the Standard Model of elementary particles the fermions are assumed to be intrinsically massless. Here we propose a new theoretical idea of fermion mass generation (other than by the Higgs mechanism) through the coupling with the vector…

We reconsider the question of mass generation for fermions coupled to a set of gauge bosons when the latter get their masses through the Goldstone bosons originating in a simple (i.e. not extended) technicolor sector. The fermion global…

We study the phase structure of a model containing two flavors of massless staggered fermions interacting through two independent four-fermion couplings, UI and UB, formulated on a three-dimensional Euclidean space-time lattice. At UB = 0,…

The strongly coupled lattice gauge models show an interesting mechanism of dynamical mass generation. If a suitable continuum limit can be found, one may think of it as an alternative to the Higgs mechanism. We present data on the spectrum,…

Using a simple three dimensional lattice four-fermion model we argue that massless fermions can become massive due to interactions without the need for any spontaneous symmetry breaking. Using large scale Monte Carlo calculations within our…

We study relativistic fermions in three euclidean dimensions with four- and six-fermion interactions of the Gross-Neveu type. In the limit of many fermion flavors, and besides the isolated free fixed point, the theory displays a line of…
