The behavior of quenched QCD at nonzero chemical potential $\mu$ has been a long-standing puzzle. An explicit solution is found using the random matrix approach to chiral symmetry breaking. At nonzero $\mu$ the quenched QCD is not a simple…

We show that even if a lattice Dirac operator satisfies the conditions consisting of locality, free of species doublings, correct continuum behavior, $\gm5$-hermiticity and the Ginsparg-Wilson relation, it does not necessarily have exact…
We construct new Ginsparg-Wilson fermions for QCD by inserting an approximately chiral Dirac operator - which involves ingredients of a perfect action - into the overlap formula. This accelerates the convergence of the overlap Dirac…
The fermionic determinant of a lattice Dirac operator that obeys the Ginsparg-Wilson relation factorizes into two factors that are complex conjugate of each other. Each factor is naturally associated with a single chiral fermion and can be…
We propose new techniques for the numerical implementation of the overlap-Dirac operator, which exploit the physical properties of the underlying theory to avoid nested algorithms. We test these procedures in the two-dimensional Schwinger…
The overlap Dirac operator obeys the Ginsparg-Wilson equation and offers a possibility to introduce chiral symmetry on the lattice. Evaluating the overlap operator is numerically very expensive and one has to rely on approximation methods.…
We propose a lattice action for the overlap Dirac matrix with nonzero chemical potential which is shown to preserve the chiral invariance on the lattice exactly. We further demonstrate it to arise from the Domain wall by letting the…
Recently, QCD Dirac spectra have been obtained for reasonably large lattices. We argue that correlations of these spectra are universal and can be obtained from a random matrix model with the global symmetries of QCD. Analytical arguments…
In QCD chiral symmetry is explicitly broken by quark masses, the effect of which can be described reliably by chiral perturbation theory. Effects of explicit chiral symmetry breaking by the lattice regularisation of the Dirac operator,…
Random Matrix Theory has been successfully applied to lattice Quantum Chromodynamics. In particular, a great deal of progress has been made on the understanding, numerically as well as analytically, of the spectral properties of the Wilson…
We evaluate chiral anomaly on the noncommutative torus with the overlap Dirac operator satisfying the Ginsparg-Wilson relation in arbitrary even dimensions. Utilizing a topological argument we show that the chiral anomaly is combined into a…
The Ginsparg-Wilson relation $D \gamma_5 + \gamma_5 D = 2 a D R \gamma_5 D$ with $R = (a \gamma_5 D)^{2k}$ is discussed. An explicit realization of D is constructed. It is shown that this sequence of topologically-proper lattice Dirac…
