We explore the physics of regular spinors in the Lounesto classification. These spinors are constructed by introducing two chiral phases. One is a degree of freedom present in choosing the $\gamma^{\mu}$ matrices that leaves the Lorentz…

A local order parameter which is important in the analysis of phase transitions in frustrated combinatorial problems is the probability that a node is frozen in a particular state. There is a percolative transition when an infinite…
In finite-size scaling analyses of Monte Carlo simulations of second-order phase transitions one often needs an extended temperature range around the critical point. By combining the parallel tempering algorithm with cluster updates and an…
The critical behaviour of several spin models can be simply described as percolation of some suitably defined clusters, or droplets: the onset of the geometrical transition coincides with the critical point and the percolation exponents are…
The decoration or iteration transformation was widely applied to solve exactly the magnetic spin models in one-dimensional and two-dimensional lattice. The motif of this letter is to extend the decoration transformation approach for models…
We present a new approach to the problem of alternating signs for fermionic many body Monte Carlo simulations. We demonstrate that the exchange of identical fermions is typically short-ranged even when the underlying physics is dominated by…

We consider the thermodynamics of chiral models in the mean-field approximation and discuss the relevance of the (frequently omitted) fermion vacuum loop. Within the chiral quark-meson model and its Polyakov loop extended version, we show…
Mean field-like approximations (including naive mean field, Bethe and Kikuchi and more general Cluster Variational Methods) are known to stabilize ordered phases at temperatures higher than the thermodynamical transition. For example, in…
We investigate the discrete chiral transformation of a Majorana fermion on a torus. Depending on the boundary conditions the integration measure can change sign. Taking this anomalous behavior into account we define a chiral order parameter…
The numerical and computational aspects of chiral fermions in lattice quantum chromodynamics are extremely demanding. In the overlap framework, the computation of the fermion propagator leads to a nested iteration where the matrix vector…
