Minimally doubled fermions have been proposed as a cost-effective realization of chiral symmetry at non-zero lattice spacing. Using lattice perturbation theory at one loop, we study their renormalization properties. Specifically, we…
We describe a proposal for constructing a lattice theory that we argue may be capable of yielding free Weyl fermions in the continuum limit. The model employs reduced staggered fermions and uses site parity dependent Yukawa interactions of…

Explicit construction of local observable algebras in quasi-Hermitian quantum theories is derived in both the tensor product model of locality and in models of free fermions. The latter construction is applied to several cases of a…
We study a microscopic model for four spinless fermions on the square lattice which exhibits a quartet bound state in the strong coupling regime. The four-particle quantum states are analyzed using symmetry arguments and by introducing a…
In lattice field theory, field sparsening aims to replace quantum fields, or objects constructed from them, with approximations that preserve the appropriate symmetries and maintain many aspects of the physics that the fields determine. For…

We describe non-relativistic fermions on the lattice (Hubbard model) in the canonical formulation using transfer matrices in fixed fermion number sectors such that the partition function becomes fully factorized in time. By analytically…
The spectrum of massless Dirac fermions on the surface of a topological insulator in a perpendicular magnetic field $B$ contains a $B$-independent "zeroth Landau level", protected by chiral symmetry. If the Dirac equation is discretized on…
We propose a lattice action including unphysical Wilson fermions with a negative mass m_0 of the order of the inverse lattice spacing. With this action, the exact zero mode of the hermitian Wilson-Dirac operator H_W(m_0) cannot appear and…
Relativistic fermions on a lattice are shown to correspond to the $fluctuations$ in the localized nonrelativistic fermions. Therefore, in contrast to nonrelativistic case, the relativistic fermions are critical with universal exponents…
We propose a method to control the number of species of lattice fermions which yields new classes of minimally doubled lattice fermions. We show it is possible to control the number of species by handling $O(a)$ Wilson-term-like corrections…
A study of spinless matter fermions coupled to a constrained $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$ lattice gauge theory on a triangular ladder is presented. The triangular unit cell and the ladder geometry strongly modify the physics, as compared to previous…
We study the spectral and magnetic properties of one-dimensional lattices filled with 2 to 4 fermions (with spin 1/2) per lattice site. We use a generalized Hubbard model that takes account all interactions on a lattice site, and solve the…
We study massless fermions interacting through a particular four fermion term in four dimensions. Exact symmetries prevent the generation of bilinear fermion mass terms. We determine the structure of the low energy effective action for the…
The fermion determinant is a highly non-local object and its logarithm is an extensive quantity. For these reasons it is widely believed that the determinant cannot be treated in acceptance steps of gauge link configurations that differ in…
We consider three fermions with two spin components interacting on a lattice model with an infinite scattering length. Low lying eigenenergies in a cubic box with periodic boundary conditions, and for a zero total momentum, are calculated…
In odd dimensions the lattice overlap formalism is simpler than in even dimensions. Masslessness of fermions can still be preserved without fine tuning and gauge invariance without gauge averaging can be maintained, although, sometimes,…
We propose a new non-Fermi liquid ground state in one dimension that is not of the Luttinger type. It is the ground state of fermions interacting via a long range repulsive interaction in real space of the form $ V(x) = e^2/|x| $. We…
We derive the spherical field formalism for fermions. We find that the spherical field method is free from certain difficulties which complicate lattice calculations, such as fermion doubling, missing axial anomalies, and computational…
