In three dimensions, the effective action for the gauge field induced by integrating out a massless Dirac fermion is known to give either a parity-invariant or a parity-violating result, depending on the regularization scheme. We construct…
Hybrid Monte Carlo simulations that implement the fermion action using multiple terms are commonly used. By the nature of their formulation they involve multiple integration time scales in the evolution of the system through simulation…

We formulate Dirac fermions on a (1+1)-dimensional lattice based on a Hamiltonian formalism. The species doubling problem of the lattice fermion is resolved by introducing hopping interactions that mix left- and right-handed fermions around…
We propose a modification of the Hybrid-Monte-Carlo algorithm that allows for a larger step-size of the integration scheme at constant acceptance rate. The key ingredient is that the pseudo-fermion action is split into two parts. We test…
I describe a method that places the fermion fields and the gauge fields on different lattice spacings during the Hybrid Monte Carlo generation of Ginsparg-Wilson dynamical ensembles. The idea is motivated by Wilson's formulation of the…
In this paper I construct the naive lattice Dirac Hamiltonian describing the propagation of fermions in a generic 2D optical metric for different lattice and flux-lattice geometries. First, I apply a top-down constructive approach that we…

We test the scaling behaviour of Wilson, hypercube, maximally twisted mass and overlap fermion actions in dynamical simulations of the 2-dimensional massive Schwinger model. We also present possibilities to simulate overlap fermions…

We simulate Quantum Chromodynamics in four Euclidean dimensions with two (degenerate mass) flavors of dynamical quarks. The Dirac operator is the so-called chirally improved operator that has been studied so far in quenched calculations. We…
There has been much recent progress in the understanding and reduction of the computational cost of the Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm for Lattice QCD as the quark mass parameter is reduced. In this letter we present a new solution to this…
A method based on the Monte Carlo inversion of the Dirac operator on the lattice provides low noise results for the correlations entering the definition of the heavy meson decay constant in the static limit. The method is complementary to…
In the study of QCD dynamics, C* boundary conditions are physically relevant in certain cases. In this paper we study the implementation of these boundary conditions in the lattice formulation of full QCD with staggered fermions. In…
We describe in some detail a computer evaluation of a 't Hooft vertex in a two dimensional model using the overlap. The computer result agrees with the known exact continuum value, and in this sense our work is a first successful fully…
Consequences of different discretizations of the two-dimensional Dirac operator on low energy properties (e.g., the number of nodes) and their relations to gauge properties are discussed. Breaking of the gauge invariance was suggested in a…
Using a dual representation of lattice fermion models that is based on spin-charge transformation and fermionisation of the original description, I derive an algorithm for diagrammatic Monte Carlo simulation of strongly correlated systems.…

We discuss the naive lattice fermion without the issue of doublers. A local lattice massless fermion action with chiral symmetry and hermiticity cannot avoid the doubling problem from the Nielsen-Ninomiya theorem. Here we adopt the forward…
On a lattice, we construct an overlap Dirac operator which describes the propagation of a Dirac fermion in external gravity. The local Lorentz symmetry is manifestly realized as a lattice gauge symmetry, while the general coordinate…
