We discuss how to construct anomaly-free chiral gauge theories on the lattice with exact gauge invariance in the framework of domain wall fermion. Chiral gauge coupling is realized by introducing a five-dimensional gauge field which…
We introduce a new domain wall operator that represents a full (real) Moebius transformation of a given non-chiral Dirac kernel. Shamir's and Borici's domain wall fermions are special cases of this new class. By tuning the parameters of the…

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…

Domain-wall Fermions represent a recent lattice approach to chiral symmetry that is receiving considerable attention. The method is presented in a somewhat unconventional manner, in terms of a ladder molecule subjected to a magnetic field.…

The M\"obius domain wall action \cite{Brower:2004xi} is a generalization of Shamir's action, which gives exactly the same overlap fermion lattice action as the separation ($L_s$) between the domain walls is taken to infinity. The…

I demonstrate that the chiral properties of Domain Wall Fermions (DWF) in the large to intermediate lattice spacing regime of QCD, 1 to 2 GeV, are significantly improved by adding to the action two standard Wilson fermions with…
The action of the overlap-Dirac operator on a vector is typically implemented indirectly through a multi-shift conjugate gradient solver. The compute-time required depends upon the condition number, $\kappa$, of the matrix that is used as…
We study domain wall fermions and their condensation in the D3/probe D7 system. A spatially dependent mass term for the N=2 hypermultiplet can be arranged to isolate distinct two component fermions on two 2+1 dimensional domain walls. We…
We consider fermion systems on a square lattice with a mass term having a curved domain-wall. Similarly to the conventional flat domain-wall fermions, massless and chiral edge states appear on the wall. In the cases of $S^1$ and $S^2$…
The approximation for the NJL gap equation that was developed in our previous paper allows us to investigate vacuum inhomogeneities in the mean field approach. The simplest case of a domain wall is studied thoroughly. The Jackiw-Rebbi…
We introduce the formulation of domain wall fermions in the context of lattice QCD. We prove the recovery of exact chiral symmetry in the limit of an infinite fifth direction, and derive the effective four-dimensional operator satisfying…
The beta-shift induced from dynamical domain wall quarks leads to increased roughness of the gauge field, thus reversing the effect of smoothing from the gauge action improvement. By exploiting the relation of overlap and domain wall…
I review the lattice formulations of vector-like gauge theories (e.g. QCD) with domain-wall/overlap fermions, and discuss how to optimize the chiral symmetry for any finite $ N_s $ (sites in the fifth dimension). In this formulation, quark…
It is known that domain wall fermions may be used in MC simulations of vector theories. The practicality and usefulness of such an implementation is investigated in the context of the vector Schwinger model, on a 2+1 dimensional lattice.…
We construct the Schr\"odinger Functional (SF) setup for the M\"obius domain wall fermions (MDWF). The method is an extension of the method proposed by Takeda for the standard domain wall fermion. In order to fulfill the requirement that…
