We present a study of the Dirac eigenvalue spectrum near the region of the QCD phase transition. This study makes use of a sequence of ensembles with temperatures from 150 MeV to 200 MeV generated with $2 + 1$ flavors of dynamical domain…
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…

We present and discuss results for cutoff effects in the PCAC masses and the mass dependence of r_0 for full QCD and various fermion actions. Our discussion of how one computes mass dependences - here of r_0 - is also relevant for…
We simulate Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) in four Euclidean dimensions with two (degenerate mass) flavors of dynamical quarks. The Dirac operator we use is the so-called chirally improved Dirac operator. We discuss the algorithm used for the…
We discuss two modifications of domain-wall fermions, aimed to reduce the chiral-symmetry violations presently encountered in numerical simulations.
We investigate the low-lying eigenvalues of the improved Wilson-Dirac operator in the Schroedinger functional with two dynamical quark flavors. At a lattice spacing of approximately 0.1 fm we find more very small eigenvalues than in the…

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 singlet and non-singlet scalar-meson masses using domain wall fermions and the quenched approximation. The singlet mass is found to be smaller than the non-singlet mass and indicates that the lowest singlet meson state could be…
