At a fixed lattice spacing, as determined by say m_\rho, adding additional fermion flavors to a dynamical simulation produces rougher gauge field configurations at the lattice scale. For domain wall fermions, these rough configurations lead…
We theoretically discover possible emergence of reentrant Walker breakdowns for current-driven domain walls in layered antiferromagnets in striking contrast to the unique Walker breakdown in ferromagnets. We reveal that the Lorentz…
We study cutoff effects at tree-level of perturbation theory for standard Wilson and Wilson twisted mass fermionic lattice actions with Nf=2 flavour degenerate quarks. The discretization effects are investigated by computing the mass…
We discuss the very different roles of the valence-quark and the sea-quark residual masses ($m_{res}^v$ and $m_{res}^s$) in dynamical domain-wall fermions simulations. Focusing on matrix elements of the effective weak hamiltonian containing…
We explore application of the domain wall fermion formalism of lattice QCD to calculate the $K\to\pi\pi$ decay amplitudes in terms of the $K\to\pi$ and $K\to 0$ hadronic matrix elements through relations derived in chiral perturbation…
Minimally doubled fermions have been proposed as a cost-effective realization of chiral symmetry at non-zero lattice spacing. Using lattice perturbation theory at one loop, we study their renormalization properties. Specifically, we…
We present an analytical calculation of the velocity of a single 180 degree domain wall in a magnetic structure with reduced thickness and/or lateral dimension under the combined action of an external applied magnetic field and an…
In the past year domain wall fermion simulations have moved from exploratory stages to the point where systematic effects can be studied with different gauge couplings, volumes, and lengths in the fifth dimension. Results are presented here…
The DWF formulation becomes increasingly problematic at gauge couplings for which $a^{-1}<2$ GeV, where the roughness of the gauge field leads to increased explicit chiral symmetry breaking ($\mres$). This problem becomes especially severe…
We extend work by Callan and Harvey and show how the phase of the chiral fermion determinant in four dimensions is reproduced by zeromodes bound to a domain wall in five dimensions. The analysis could shed light on the applicability of…
We report RBC and RBC/UKQCD lattice QCD numerical calculations of nucleon electroweak matrix elements with dynamical domain-wall fermions (DWF) quarks. The first, RBC, set of dynamical DWF ensembles employs two degenerate flavors of DWF…
We present physical results for a variety of light hadronic quantities obtained via a combined analysis of three 2+1 flavour domain wall fermion ensemble sets. For two of our ensemble sets we used the Iwasaki gauge action with beta=2.13…
Many-particle systems driven out of thermal equilibrium can show properties qualitatively different from any thermal state. Here, we study a ferrimagnet in a weak oscillating magnetic field. In this model, domain walls are not static, but…
We have recently given a construction of the overlap Dirac operator at nonzero quark chemical potential. Here, we introduce a quark chemical potential in the domain-wall fermion formalism and show that our earlier result is reproduced if…
We investigate the scattering of fermions off walls in the presence of a magnetic field. We consider both the bubble wall and the kink domain wall. By solving the Dirac equation for fermions in the presence of a domain wall in an external…
We study the quenched lattice QCD using domain-wall fermions at $\beta=6.0$. Behaviors of both pion mass and the explicit breaking term in the axial Ward-Takahashi identity support the existence of the chiral zero modes. We observe a good…
We discuss locality in the domain-wall QCD through the effective four-dimensional Dirac operator which is defined by the transfer matrix of the five-dimensional Wilson fermion. We first derive an integral representation for the effective…
Quenched QCD simulations on three volumes, $8^3 \times$, $12^3 \times$ and $16^3 \times 32$ and three couplings, $\beta=5.7$, 5.85 and 6.0 using domain wall fermions provide a consistent picture of quenched QCD. We demonstrate that the…
In the domain wall fermion formulation, chiral symmetry breaking in full QCD is expected to fall exponentially with the length of the extra dimension. We measure the chiral symmetry breaking due to a finite extra dimension in two ways,…
