We report on studies of the chiral properties of dynamical domain wall fermions combined with the DBW2 gauge action for different gauge couplings and fermion masses. For quenched theories, the DBW2 action gives a residual chiral symmetry…
The inverse of the fermion matrix squared is used to define a transfer matrix for domain-wall fermions. When the domain-wall height $M$ is bigger than one, the transfer matrix is complex. Slowly suppressed chiral symmetry violations may…

We study a parameter optimization of domain-wall fermions to improve chiral symmetry based on machine learning. Domain-wall fermions involve coefficients along the fifth dimension, which can be treated as trainable parameters to reduce the…
Domain wall fermions provide a complimentary alternative to traditional lattice fermion approaches. By introducing an extra dimension, the amount of chiral symmetry present in the lattice theory can be controlled in a linear way. This…

At a fixed lattice spacing, as determined by say m_\rho, adding additional fermion flavors to a dynamical simulation produces rougher gauge field configurations at the lattice scale. For domain wall fermions, these rough configurations lead…

The beta-shift induced from dynamical domain wall quarks leads to increased roughness of the gauge field, thus reversing the effect of smoothing from the gauge action improvement. By exploiting the relation of overlap and domain wall…
We present results from lattice perturbation theory for the residual mass and other matrix elements measuring the breaking of chiral symmetry in domain-wall fermions. We have used the exact propagators corresponding to a finite number of…
In the domain wall fermion formulation, chiral symmetry breaking in full QCD is expected to fall exponentially with the length of the extra dimension. We measure the chiral symmetry breaking due to a finite extra dimension in two ways,…
Domain-wall fermions preserve chiral symmetry up to terms that decrease exponentially when the lattice size in the fifth dimension is taken to infinity. The associated rates of convergence are given by the low-lying eigenvalues of a simple…
The reweighting method is applied to improve the chiral property of domain-wall fermions. One way to achieve this is to enlarge $L_s$, the size of fifth dimension, which controls the size of the induced chiral symmetry breaking. While this…
In a recent work Chiu proposed to modify domain wall fermions that allow in an optimal way fewer number of flavors than in the standard case. This is done using a variant of doamin wall fermions, the so-called truncated overlap fermions. In…
