We propose a nonperturbative gauge invariant regulator for d-dimensional chiral gauge theories on the lattice. The method involves simulating domain wall fermions in d + 1 dimensions with quantum gauge fields that reside on one…

A method for removing fermion doublers in anomaly free chiral gauge theories on the lattice is proposed. It is proven that the resulting continuum theory is gauge invariant and does not require noninvariant counterterms of fine tuning of…

We present a new method for regularizing chiral theories on the lattice. The arbitrariness in the regularization is used in order to decouple massless replica fermions. A continuum limit with only one fermion is obtained in perturbation…

We find a large class of quantum gauge models with massless fermions where the coupling to the gauge fields is not chirally symmetric and which nevertheless do not suffer from gauge anomalies. To be specific we study two dimensional Abelian…

We consider theories with gauged chiral fermions in which there are abelian anomalies, and no nonabelian anomalies (but there may be nonabelian gauge fields present). We construct an associated theory that is gauge invariant,…

The effective action induced by fermions in the chiral Schwinger model with charges (3,4,5) is investigated. Pauli-Villars regularization is combined with momentum cut-off for the evaluation of the fermion determinants on continuum gauge…

We construct a chiral gauge theory to describe fractionalization of fermions in graphene. Thereby we extend a recently proposed model, which relies on vortex formation. Our chiral gauge fields provide dynamics for the vortices and also…

In an approach towards naturalness without supersymmetry, renormalization properties of nonsupersymmetric abelian quiver gauge theories are studied. In the construction based on cyclic groups Z_p the gauge group is U(N)^p, the fermions are…

Coupling gauge fields to the chiral currents from an effective Lagrangian for pseudoscalar mesons naturally gives rise to a species doubling phenomenon similar to that seen with fermionic fields in lattice gauge theory.

Chiral gauge groups acting on a lattice fermion field are constructed such that all fermion modes (doublers) have the same charge. Details are given for an abelian axial gauge group within a perturbative framework. An action based on this…

Analyzing an $SU_L(2)$-chiral gauge theory with external multifermion couplings, we find a possible scaling region where doublers decouple by acquiring chiral-invariant masses and $\psi_R$ is free mode owing to the $\psi_R$-shift-symmetry,…
