We compare the behavior of different lattice Dirac operators in gauge backgrounds which are lattice discretizations of a classical instanton. In particular we analyze the standard Wilson operator, a chirally improved Dirac operator and the…
We study the effective action associated to the Dirac operator in two dimensional non-commutative Field Theory. Starting from the axial anomaly, we compute the determinant of the Dirac operator and we find that even in the U(1) theory, a…
Eigenvalue estimate for the Dirac-Witten operator is given on bounded domains (with smooth boundary) of spacelike hypersurfaces satisfying the dominant energy condition, under four natural boundary conditions (MIT, APS, modified APS, and…
We show how the standard domain wall action can be simply modified to allow arbitrarily exact chiral symmetry at finite fifth dimensional extent $L_s$. We note that the method can be used for both quenched and dynamical calculations. We…
I derive the overlap Dirac operator starting from the overlap formalism, discuss the numerical hurdles in dealing with this operator and present ways to overcome them.
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…
We present a parameter-free Wilson-type lattice Dirac operator with an 81-point stencil for the covariant derivative and the Laplacian which attempts to minimize the breaking of rotational symmetry near the boundary of the Brillouin zone.…
We construct a lattice Dirac operator of overlap type that describes the propagation of a Dirac fermion in an external gravitational field. The local Lorentz symmetry is manifestly realized as a lattice gauge symmetry, while it is believed…
We carry the index theory for manifolds with boundary of B\"ar and Ballmann over to first order differential operators on metric graphs. This approach results in a short proof for the index of such operators. Then the self-adjoint…
We investigate numerically the effect of regulating fermions in the presence of singular background fields in three dimensions. For this, we couple free lattice fermions to a background compact U(1) gauge field consisting of a…
We use a continued fraction expansion of the sign-function in order to obtain a five dimensional formulation of the overlap lattice Dirac operator. Within this formulation the inverse of the overlap operator can be calculated by a single…
We prove a new upper bound for the smallest eigenvalues of the Dirac operator on a compact hypersurface of the hyperbolic space.
In his book Mickelsson notices that the infinite-dimensional Grassmannian manifold of Segal and Wilson admits a Spin^c structure and after this he naturally considers the problem of defining a Dirac operator on it. Mickelsson gives a…
The Schroedinger functional formalism is given as a field theory in a finite volume with a Dirichlet boundary condition in temporal direction. When one tries to construct this formalism with the Ginsparg-Wilson fermion including the overlap…
The microscopic spectral density of the Hermitian Wilson-Dirac operator is computed numerically in quenched lattice QCD. We demonstrate that the results given for fixed index of the Wilson-Dirac operator can be matched by the predictions…
The domain wall approach to lattice fermions employs an additional dimension, in which gauge fields are merely replicated, to separate the chiral components of a Dirac fermion. It is known that in the limit of infinite separation in this…
We get optimal lower bounds for the eigenvalues of the Dirac-Witten operator on locally reducible spacelike submanifold in terms of intrinsic and extrinsic expressions. The limiting-cases are also studied.
We introduce a new domain wall operator that represents a full (real) Moebius transformation of a given non-chiral Dirac kernel. Shamir's and Borici's domain wall fermions are special cases of this new class. By tuning the parameters of the…
We report on some preparatory investigations for the simulation of the QCD Schroedinger functional with a non-hermitian polynomial hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm. The complex spectrum of the non-hermitean free operator with SF boundary…
We give a new upper bound for the smallest eigenvalues of the Dirac operator on a Riemannian flow carrying transversal Killing spinors. We derive an estimate on Sasakian and on 3-dimensional manifolds and partially classify those satisfying…
