Normality of the Dirac operator is shown to be necessary for chiral properties. From the global chiral Ward identity, which in the continuum limit gives the index theorem, a sum rule results which constrains the spectrum. The…
We evaluate the axial anomaly for the general Ginsparg-Wilson fermion operator $D = D_c (\Id + R D_c)^{-1}$ with $R = r \Id$. For any chirally symmetric $D_c$ which in the free fermion limit, is free of species doubling and behaves like $i…
This is a review of the status and outstanding issues in attempts to construct chiral lattice gauge theories by decoupling the mirror fermions from a vectorlike theory. In the first half, we explain why studying nonperturbative chiral gauge…
By exploiting the chiral symmetry, we derive analytic formulas for the massless and the massive Ginsparg-Wilson fermion propagators. Using these formulas, we derive an expression for the chiral condensate which is the order parameter for…
The Ginsparg-Wilson algebra is the algebra underlying the Ginsparg-Wilson solution of the fermion doubling problem in lattice gauge theory. The Dirac operator of the fuzzy sphere is not afflicted with this problem. Previously we have…
The axial anomaly in abelian lattice gauge theories is shown to be equal to a simple quadratic expression in the gauge field tensor plus a removable divergence term if the lattice Dirac operator satisfies the Ginsparg-Wilson relation. The…
A generalized anti-hermitian staggered Dirac operator is formulated. Its relation with noncommutative geometry is briefly reviewed. Once this anti-hermitian operator is modified to be ``$\gamma^5$-hermitian'', it will provide a new solution…
It is shown that the lattice Wess-Zumino model written in terms of Ginsparg-Wilson fermions is invariant under a generalized supersymmetry transformation which is determined by an iterative procedure in the coupling constant. This…
Our review of the lattice chiral fermion delves into some critical areas of lattice field theory. By abandoning Hermiticity, the non-Hermitian formulation circumvents the Nielsen-Ninomiya theorem while maintaining chiral symmetry, a novel…
The Weyl fermion belonging to the real representation of the gauge group provides a simple illustrative example for L\"uscher's gauge-invariant lattice formulation of chiral gauge theories. We can explicitly construct the fermion…
Using N=1 Supersymmetric QCD (SQCD) as a prototype model, this work presents a formulation of overlap quarks and gluinos on the lattice, with particular emphasis on the construction of chirally symmetric Yukawa terms. By incorporating the…
We discuss the chiral fermion in the Hamiltonian formalism of lattice gauge theory. Although the naive chiral charge operator does not commute with the Hamiltonian, the commutable one can be defined for the overlap fermion. The eigenvalues…
Normality and $\ga$-hermiticity are what gives rise to chiral properties and rules. The Ginsparg-Wilson (GW) relation is only one of the possible spectral constraints. The sum rule for chiral differences of real modes has important…
Lattice fermions obeying the Ginsparg-Wilson relation do correctly represent the physical properties related to chirality. This can be achieved by local fermions, which involve an infinite number of couplings, however. For practical…
We analyze general solutions of the Ginsparg-Wilson relation for lattice Dirac operators and formulate a necessary condition for such operators to have non-zero index in the topologically nontrivial background gauge fields.
Unphysical effects associated with finite lattice spacing and partial quenching generally lead to to the presence of unphysical terms in chiral extrapolation formulae, which must be removed to make physical predictions. We use mixed action…
This thesis is dedicated to explore the feasibility of numerical calculations in the $\epsilon$--regime of QCD for the extraction of physical information. We apply two formulations of the Ginsparg-Wilson fermions the Neuberger operator and…
Using perturbation theory in the Euclidean (imaginary time) formalism as well as the non-perturbative Fujikawa method, we verify that the chiral anomaly equation remains unaffected in the presence of nonzero chemical potential, $\mu$. We…
We expand the most general lattice Dirac operator D in a basis of simple operators. The Ginsparg-Wilson equation turns into a system of coupled quadratic equations for the expansion coefficients. Our expansion of D allows for a natural…
We investigate the property of the effective action with the chiral overlap operator, which was derived by Grabowska and Kaplan. They proposed a lattice formulation of four-dimensional chiral gauge theory, which is derived from their…
