We describe an explicit construction of approximate Ginsparg-Wilson fermions for QCD. We use ingredients of perfect action origin, and further elements. The spectrum of the lattice Dirac operator reveals the quality of the approximation. We…
We discuss the lattice formulation of gauge theories with fermions in arbitrary representations of the color group, and present in detail the implementation of the HMC/RHMC algorithm for simulating dynamical fermions. We discuss the…
I discuss the connection between the Hamiltonian and path integral approaches for fermionic fields. I show how the temporal Wilson projection operators appear naturally in a lattice action. I also carefully treat the insertion of a chemical…
A Ginsparg-Wilson Relation (GWR) is obtained in the presence of chiral symmetry breaking terms. It leads to the PCAC relation as well as an anomaly relation on the lattice. For general fermions, the deviation from the exact GWR is getting…
We give a general derivation of Ginsparg-Wilson relations for both Dirac and Majorana fermions in any dimension. These relations encode continuous and discrete chiral, parity and time reversal anomalies and will apply to the various classes…
Several issues related to the question "How simple can Ginsparg-Wilson fermionic actions be?" are discussed, and it is suggested that simplicity in the eigenspace should be looked for.
I present a brief summary of the status and prospects of improved Wilson-type quark actions for coarse lattice simulations. My conclusions are optimistic.
Unphysical effects associated with finite lattice spacing and partial quenching generally lead to to the presence of unphysical terms in chiral extrapolation formulae, which must be removed to make physical predictions. We use mixed action…
The Baxter 8-vertex model is equivalent to a particular lattice formulation of a self-interacting, massive Dirac fermion theory. In the time-continuum limit, the lattice Hamiltonian (XYZ spin chain) can be explicitly transformed to a…
Lattice chiral fermions are synonymous to the Ginsparg-Wilson relation. Indeed, this relation is satisfied by the overlap, domain wall and perfect action fermion kernel. In a recent work we have shown that it is possible to take a direct RG…
In this note I briefly discuss ideas related to the so-called fourth-root trick. A decomposition of the ``rooted'' fermion effective action into Wilson fermions and a nonlocal, lattice spacing suppressed functional is presented, complete…
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…
We propose and test an algorithm to simulate a lattice system of interacting fermions in two spatial dimensions. The approach is an extension of the entanglement renormalization technique [Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 220405 (2007)] and the related…
This is a review of the status and outstanding issues in attempts to construct chiral lattice gauge theories by decoupling the mirror fermions from a vectorlike theory. In the first half, we explain why studying nonperturbative chiral gauge…
We give a brief sketch of lattice structure function calculations and review previous results for the axial coupling $g_A$. We outline a new technique for treating fermions on the lattice that preserves chiral symmetry, domain wall…
We formulate a Ginsparg-Wilson relation on a fuzzy 2-sphere for matter in the adjoint representation of the gauge group. Because of the Ginsparg-Wilson relation, an index theorem is satisfied. Our formulation is applicable to topologically…
We discuss the improvement of bilinear fermionic operators for Ginsparg-Wilson fermions. We present explicit formulae for improved Green's functions, which apply both on-shell and off-shell.
The Ginsparg-Wilson(G-W) relation is extended for supersymmetric free theories on a lattice. Exact lattice supersymmetry(SUSY) can be defined without any ambiguities in difference operators. The lattice action constructed by a block-spin…
We present a method for implementing gauge theories of chiral fermions on the lattice.
A lattice formulation of the four dimensional Wess-Zumino model that uses Ginsparg-Wilson fermions and keeps exact supersymmetry is presented. The supersymmetry transformation that leaves invariant the action at finite lattice spacing is…
